Just updated to Sync 3.4 on my Ranger 2019

... at the same time enhanced the voice commands.

Uhh, yeah no. Same as before, temperature control only.

I then decided to use the Forscan to enable the Climate Domain, which I did. However, I still don't have the climate controls screen. It shows that the Climate Domain is engaged now but am I missing a step?

Here is a screen shot of what FORScan shows for my Lariat. Are your climate icons enabled?

I did the update a few weeks ago and lost the climate controls screen. I decided to let a Ford dealer fix it but that was a mistake. They kept it about 1/2 day and when I picked it up the service advisor told me this story.... The tech and the service manager told him that the update did away with the climate controls screen for safety reasons but at the same time enhanced the voice commands. I told the service advisor that was strange as I am on a forum (this one) and somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of those that did the update did not lose the screen.

Well, you gotta give them credit for being creative. If you are gonna lie to customers you must make it believeable.

Geoff after you Enabled these 3 settings in the APIM, did you have to perform a module reset using FORScan or a Master Reset?

I did not lose climate when loading 3.4 so I can't help you but I highly doubt you need to do any FORScan reset (I've not read where anyone needed to do that).

I only enabled the climate domain. Right after I reset it, the wife took it and went to the store. When she got back the climate icon was there and it seemed to have full functionality. I'm not sure now if I overlooked the climate icon or it wasn't there at that time.

I did a master reset. All that did was losing all my presets. It didn't do anything as far as enabling the climate icon.

I'm still curious why some only had to Enable Climate Domain while others had to Enable both of the Climate Icons as well: Mode and Recirculation

I think some folks enabled all three because that's the default. To my knowledge it has yet to be shown if that is needed or not.

Finally talked to my dealer again. They heard back from Ford and actually have a bulletin for it now, but no fix from them, "it's a software issue they're working on" and I need to call them back in 3-10 days.

*sigh*

Seriously. This can't be that hard to fix? What am I supposed to do in the meantime? Not touch my climate? kthx.

Probably should have waited like I am. Climate controls on my v3.3 work fine.

It sucks but you still have the buttons. So you can adjust with those right?
