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

[Mark Hassa]

Took my MME and Explorer to the dealer to do updates. Noticed both vehicles still showing the ACM in FDRS after the OTA in MME (A month after receiving OTA) and in Explorer after doing update. Is this an issue on Ford's end, or is there another way to get this to clear?

I had to spam the network scan button a couple of times before it dropped off...but it did drop off.

Mine never fell off, no matter how many scans. I had to resintall the ACM update myself in FDRS to get it to go away.

I noticed that too, a vehicle that previously had the ACM OTA also later took the ACM update via FDRS. It disappeared from the list afterwards, so something got updated or changed compared to the OTA.

I don't even think I'm getting as far as you. I run it and it goes through the motions but never gets to the USB stage (which I thought was required for the GWM). It does "configuring module" or whatever and then ends. Never clears from my list or anything. Lame.

Having this exact same issue with the GWM update on a '21 Job 1. I was hoping the update would resolve an issue I am having with BlueCruise Handsfree. Under about sync, there's no reference to handsfree maps at all, BC HF has worked for me before so not sure why it's suddenly lost.

The GWM update went away for me this morning, it was there yesterday. Guess they pulled it or maybe I need to do a network scan to get a newer released version?

I got a new GWM update this morning via FDRS. Installed it... it listed updating several modules with the -PAE extension. Had to use a USB to do the update.

No further updates appeared after the GWM?

No. However, when I drove down to Richmond Virginia later today, I noticed I now have the new "Charge Assist" app feature on the home screen.

Yes that was just released

That's unrelated. It's a server-side change that everyone is getting.

O.K.

I'm not seeing a new GWM yet, though I haven't done a network scan. Hopefully update Fridays are back and we see some more tomorrow!

After comparing hardware and software part numbers and revisions between my '23 GT-PE and a 23.5 GT-PE (with BC 1.3), I'm anticipating that when the OTAs (or FDRS updates) arrive for the BC 1.3 update on my car I can expect to update the APIM, IPC, IPMA, and the PSCM.

So this was a simple analysis of differences between cars that have BC 1.2 going to BC 1.3. I haven't checked the differences between a BC 1.0 car and BC 1.3...but I'm thinking it would be similar with some possible additions like a gateway, and TCU update as well.

I think we are in dependency purgatory from that July IPC update.
