My second GWM update from the recent GWM / APIM / GWM series failed on the USB so I used the alternate FDRS cable install method via my Mongoose cable... looooooong (over 2 hours) but it worked.@JohnFoxeSheets visited with "Ode to Joy" today and we were able to successfully update his OTA-stuck car.... I think he enjoyed the level driveway and roomy driveway and garage!
Question: Just like my experience, we had to try updating that GWM module 3x before it passed. The failed attempts had us leaving the car door open for 10 or 15 minutes and car off, yet things still failed to update according to FDRS.
Any idea if there's anything we did wrong in the procedure, or can we chalk the 1 out of 3 success rate to just flakey update software from Ford?
