The Complete DIY Guide to Updating Your Mach-E with FDRS

[generaltso]

EDIT: All done. My doors went from revision "-AH" to "-AL" and total session time for all 4 doors was 10 minutes.

Same here. I'm surprised Ford doesn't bundle these together to ensure the door modules don't end up on different versions.

I’m thinking about jumping into the fray, having been stopped at 2.7.4 for the past six or seven weeks.

Before I spend the near grand to get into the pool, if I just connect it all and update “everything,” will that finish the BlueCruise installation, or do I need to look at all the TSBs and go through those steps in order separately, etc? I don’t have 21P22 or BlueCruise yet.

Just let it rip! FDRS updates everything it needs to that’s a dependency. You might be there for a while depending upon your build date.

There is a sequence.

CSP 21P22 and 21G01 will cover most of what you probably have showing as available.

Start with CSP 21P22 for two reasons, first historically CSP 21P22 was released first before 21G01. And second, at step 19 in the 21G01 BlueCruise procedures..if you haven't done all the programming from CSP 21P22, it tells you to stop and go back and do that before proceeding with the BlueCruise steps. So you might as well start with CSP 21P22 and get that over with before diving in to BlueCruise.

Thank you! I'm giving serious thought to this. My hesitation is that while I'm excellent with tech and computers, I'm not so much at all with mechanics. This seems more tech than mechanic though, so I'm leaning toward just getting into it. Appreciate the assist with the info.

Just updated 4 door modules and GWM. No drama.

Also did the wife’s Kuga (ESCAPE) BCM with no dramas either.

I updated the door modules as well. I had the drivers door open since I had the laptop plugged in and got an error on one module. Closed the door and reran the update without error. Not 100% certain they are related, but it seems to make sense.

They are available on Ebay here in the US. Obviously you could try Ford over there but I'm guessing they are even more expensive from Ford there than they are here. I haven't found any alternative or similar versions of those clips yet. But thankfully I don't lose them anymore now that I've done the mod for the jumper cables.

What mod did you do for the cable connections?

Most people hole saw their left side beauty panels and use furniture plugs. I dropped a race car charging port into my car. ??

Where did you pick up that charging port?

Oh, just the usual 2 1/2" holes in the left side frunk trim cover over the two jump points. The caps are from Amazon and the T-handles are drawer pulls from Lowes.

There's a thread on this I think in the DIY section.
