New Power Up OTA 2.4.1 Now Available

[TRP]

I got 2.3.0 on day 1 (early access), but don't have 2.4.1 queued up yet. I guess it's possible that it targets a module that I've already updated with FDRS. Or Ford just hasn't approved it for all early access members yet.

I'm early access. In the past I would have to wait, this one came through fast

I am EA. I have not received it but haven't driven the car in two days. I'm going out today so we will see.

I'm stuck on 1.7.1. Had recall done and CSP 21P22 successfully done at same time. I do not use PAAK. I have never had any of these buttons and of course still don't. Dealer tried to update 1.7.1 and it failed and have not been able to get anything since.

Is your vehicle in an area where AT&T cellular signals are good, or do significant driving where such a signal is good?

Nothing like an update of a "new" feature that I thought I already had.

So I tested the horn/light button on my fordpass app yesterday before the update and it did not work. Today after the update is working my car is a job 1 car so this update maybe for a select number of owners

EDIT I was not in Bluetooth range when I tested this and several other members have posted that's the difference.

Revised update notes proposed:. "Updates to increase functionality and reliability of horn and lights feature via FordPass app.

But whatever you do, DON'T PRESS THE BUTTON If you cannot find your car, just buy a new one!! Who loses their car anyways, this isn't some early 2000's movie!!!"

Remembering when Horn and Lights button was for emergencies. Now everyone ignore them lol.

I’m on 2.3.0 but had the button in the app from day 1. Reading this thead I decided to try it to see if it works. It does but then it would not stop!!! Even unlocking the doors with the fob would not stop it. Only sitting in the car and starting it stopped the honking. How stupidly designed!

Hello everyone. I believe my MME is a job 1 MME (one keyfob and vertical volume bar). Apparently, Ford decided I did not need the Frunk insert so it just skipped it. To shorten this story, it is going in to my local dealer to get the Frunk trim installed and I want to have the dealership upgrade as much as they can on the car so maybe one day, I can be as cool as all you job 2 kids. My question is, what is the current version available to Job 1 MME's? There are a lot of versions getting thrown around on here and I am not sure which button to press on the service manager.

I've had a Horn and Lights button in my app for my build 1 car for ages now. I honestly can't remember not having it...

My premium came with this and the windows up/down ad well since last May....I have no clue what update I am on.

Ok, I pressed the button. DO NOT PRESS THE BUTTON!!!
At least Ford presents a confirmation prompt asking if you’re really sure you want to do something stupid and I foolishly said “yes”. The confirmation prompt claims the button will flash the lights and honk the horn “for a few seconds”. It LIES! The lights and horn would not go off. Remote unlock wouldn’t shut them off. Pushing the button again only brought up the prompt about asking if you’re sure you want to flash the lights and sound the horn “for a few seconds again”. Opening the drivers door did not turn them off. The only way I got to turn them off was to start the car. I’m sure I will receive a stern disciplinary action from the politburo (aka the homeowners association) in short order for “disturbing the peace and tranquility of a politburo member” (who sadly happens to live nearby).

This. Exactly. My experience. At least it was in my garage but that horn is deafening inside. Wow.

I find the horn sound in this car as loud and obnoxious as they come.. certainly noticeable..

They’re reading this thread right now just laughing their butts off

Fords version of 'More Cowbell' 'What we need is more horns and lights!!'

 

[narmstrong79]

me too, or bluecruze

I'm pretty sure the frunk release will require a dealer visit, bluecruise as well. I just don't see Ford getting this to work OTA.

That's why I traded traded my early build for a newer one. BlueCruise, digital frunk release and the traction control button

All cars have had it when PAAK is connected. This update makes the Horn/Lights work when bluetooth isn't connected.
