The Complete DIY Guide to Updating Your Mach-E with FDRS (Alternative to Forscan)

[scoopman]

So, given you were all Build 2, which available module software did you NOT update? I'm specifically referencing the problems of inadvertently loading software meant for Build 1 as described elsewhere.

None of these! See the post here: https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...tes-available-bluecruise-job1-and-job2.15427/

@chrisGT @HuntingPudel and I had a flashing party today. Mr. Pudel brought his chair.

No one had to call Roadside Assistance or remember where their winch points were, and all left with an improved charging curve and various other things better than when they arrived! (except for Chris, who still needs to do a GWM update, we had a bad USB stick).

Thanks for everything @scoopman. Please thank your wife for tolerating us and reassure her that we won't show up again unless of course Ford releases an update to remove the 5-sec power limit

As for the chair, my theory is that @HuntingPudel 's plan was to hide his front license plate in the photo after seeing that neither of us has one

License plate? Sh-hhh! ??

I've noticed several Job 2 cars have an update available for the Qi charger. Has anyone tried this yet? It's not available for my Job 1 car.

May I join the next flashing party? I'll bring some product from our clients (I work on a web platform that sells alcoholic beverages) and have my own chair.

I noticed someone else post a screenshot with this, but my GT doesn't have it available.

My current software version ends in -AA

This is great! I'm adding it to the original post

Is that update that breaks blue cruise still out there or did they fix it? I just got my car Wed night and I'm fairly certain on the 3 freeways I've driven so far should be blue cruise freeways.

The sales rep said before I took delivery that night that during the day they had the techs go through and update all of the modules to the current versions so I don't know if they broke it.

It just shows the blue bubble and to keep the hands on the wheel.

Have you tried plug and charge or your connected live traffic nav? It could be that your connected services haven't activated yet. Mine took a couple of weeks to activate.

Ahhh ok haven't done plug and charge yet but got a message today saying it was ready to use. I've seen traffic on the built in nav already so ?

Well I suppose that rules out connected services not being active then, if those two things are already working

 

[GuliblGuy]

Ford pass points showed up for connecting plug and charge, but nothing yet for buying the car. Maybe something's still stuck somewhere.

It looks like Ford has finally fixed the bug that kept some modules from disappearing from the list in FDRS after they were updated (ABS, etc.). This is a beautiful sight.
