I was wondering if anybody knows the exact location of the SYNC module on a 2012 FX4. Mine has the full center console with shifter and a speaker in the center of the dash (Sony sound) where the module was on my 2012 XLT.


I did a search here but all I could find was the location in the upper dash below the tray. I believe my module is somewhere inside the console or just in front of it but want to make sure what all I have to remove before getting started.


Thanks!

 

Under the dash tray! No different than your xlt...

 

You are correct, I just took the tray out and checked; what a relief!


I just bought a OEM navigation kit for my truck and the instruction state that I might have to splice some wires on the SYNC module if the navigation voice isn't audible. I sure didn't feel like taking the center console puzzle apart.

 

Well, I read the installation instruction again and probably have to mess with my center console anyway. There is a chance that I have to splice some wires on the Sony amp which is supposed to be inside the console.

 

Its under the console! Have fun with that... Its really not too bad...

 

What they said^^^

 

On a good day SYNC can be mysterious and glitchy. Splicing into those wires might make her downright bitchy to deal with!

 

I had to splice into the SYNC wires when I put navigation in my 12 XLT. Wasn't all that bad, at least the module is easy to access.


It'll be another week or so before I get to do it. Right now my wife keeps me busy with her indoor and outdoor Xmas decoration which has priority over my truck (in her eyes anyway). I will post some pictures when I am done and got everything working.


Thanks for everybody's input.......great forum here!
