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

[Babbit]

I'll try to find you a link to download an older version of FDRS.

@Babbit

Uninstall that one and try this one:

That version works!!

In the process of installing first update.

Thank you!

Did any new updates come through the last few days? I am wondering if there is an update that will solve the new ford pass issues….

What FordPass issue are you experiencing?

I was going to ask the same thing. What issues do you have? Everything works on my app.

No updates unless I lock the doors. I can’t edit/add charging locations. Charging history does not show up (I charged last night and nothing). Charging rate does not show up. Those are the ones I remember right now. I have a 2023.5 GTPE which is fully updated (as of last weekend) in FDRS except for DSP updates since I took the B&O amp out.

I also can’t delete charge locations to start over. I assume I will be able to do that in the car.

Are you only talking about the app?
I mean, does Sync4 have a record of the charging location yesterday?

I had similar issues with the beta app after the recent slew of FDRS updates. I never could sort it from the app.
I finally sat in the car and used Sync4 to "save" yesterday's L2 charging location, which was no longer called "home", but was rather long/lat values only.
Saved that location.
Edited it to be "Home"

A few minutes later, FordPass (V5 beta at the time) reflected what Sync4 now had.

The release of production V5 didn't snag. So I'm fortunate to have a fully furnished FordPass on Android.

I finally got around to getting an FDRS license to install updates. The dealer installed the majority of the updates a few weeks ago, so I figured there might just be some smaller updates that I could cut my teeth on. When I go into FDRS, this is what I see. Does this mean I don't have anything to update?

You have to hit the tab labeled "SW Update"

Click on the SW Updates tab. If there are updates they will all show in there.

D'oh. I realized that later. I'm not so smart.

Out of curiosity, I have these updates showing. Any idea of how long these might take? I think I may be unexpectedly time-limited today.

About 25 minutes.

Speaking of updates, after hearing everyone sound off I realize how far behind I am, or think I am. So as stated I took possession of a 21 Select with Tech/Comfort pkg a month ago. I was convinced I could address many of my internal concerns with an FDRS update..WRONG!! I completed the FDRS updates last weekend which literally took all weekend to note how many modules needed updates. Any who on 5/12 I received OTA 22-PU0706-SCH-POPA. I did FDRS on the weekend of the 18th. Fast charging is still horrible, went to a 350KW Electrify and only got 31KW.
Is there anything I can do on my end to bridge the gap on all the OTA's I'm missing besides ensuring wifi signals good and that I have the connected network(V^) logo on the infotainment screen?

Thanks much. That gave me confidence to do these updates, and it completed in about 15 minutes from pushing Run.

It did take me much longer to get setup, and I think I need to get some longer alligator clips for the power supply (I'm using the Pyramid PSV500 that I saw recommended elsewhere).

And I spent more time trying to re-find the link to clear the DTCs than I spent waiting for the programming to finish.

Thank you to all of you who have been so helpful and patient! This is truly one of my favorite forums, even if I'm just a lurker (introvert and all)!
