Power-Up 2.5.3, updating the APIM, seems to be the final BlueCruise update. I got it, but no instant BlueCruise. I did get menu items under the Cruise Control menu that seem related. They were turned off, so I turned them on. Then I got BlueCruise!

The interesting thing is the Ford EAP website shows my car's BlueCruise as not active. I have no notifications in FordPass. It does actually work as I got nanny warnings when I tried it using sunglasses. It works pretty good when I tried it with regular glasses.

The ford website shows my car BlueCruise as active, I did not notice any menu items for Blue Cruise to turn on or off but I do have Blue Cruise and received an alert that there was an update to Nav. I also just picked up the car this past Monday.

Can one of you with BlueCruise, post your APIM software version (as shown by the widget)?
Would like to check if the FDRS version of APIM is the same. In my case I see MU5T-14G676-EJ.

I am a part of BlueCruise EA, but dont see it anywhere yet.

I don't have the widget. But if you look on the APIM itself, do you see 22034_PRODUCT revision 364?

That's what mine is showing.

No way to get this via FordPass.

So I have revision 358. That means FDRS has to show one more APIM update, or 2.5.3 has to happen via OTA for BC.

Thanks @kennethjk @macchiaz-o

Or it might mean different revisions are built for different vehicle configurations? ?

Mine is a December 2020 built rear wheel drive Premium, standard battery.

If your car is Job 1 and you're not in Early Access, you do not have BC.

And if your car is Job 1 and you ARE in Early Access you probably don’t have BC. Got a short road trip in 4 weeks so maybe, just maybe… ?
