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

[HuntingPudel]

So a defective unit? Are you having it repaired?

Yeah. It’s been repaired but I haven’t done anything in FDRS since it failed. I thought I was going to brick my car when it failed. ?? I’m hoping the repair is good and when I find something enticing to update it holds. ??

Yours is the first I’ve heard of one with an issue. Sorry that happened to you. I use mine quite a bit in my car and others. It’s been rock solid so far.

LOl it’s just my luck. I bought a Chlore because they have a good reputation. ??

Yeah, I got that about three weeks ago. Haven’t bothered. Don’t really listen to anything while driving.

Perhaps you can explain the information you provided? I see the ECU appears to be the update, but the other items pertain to what? Just trying to learn, thanks!

I was about to do this update, got in my car and it’s queued OTA.

How long is this update? Does it use a USB drive or do I need to hook up the powersuppy. I guess I'm asking key on engine off (ACC) or key on engine running?

Takes just a few minutes, and its not a USB update. I didn't hook up my power supply for it.
Key On Engine OFF

I did the update; all went well as you stated (no PS hooked up). What does this update do, just curious??

My ACM update isn't clearing from FDRS after I received it OTA. It didn't clear yesterday after I did the OTA, since I already had my FDRS stuff out I checked. I thought maybe it would take a day to sync up but no luck. When I try to run it again though, it keeps just kicking me out saying failed to connect to the Ford server, both yesterday and today. Very odd, I'm able to do other configs, self test, etc.
