@James Caper > Yes, of course I saved my APIM before applying the one I was given. I have numerous iterations of the file that I kept while trying to troubleshoot. I have the comparison tool but it was simpler to upload the new see if it worked then back it out if it didn't. Fortunately, it...

Solution found> on another Ranger forum I posted the issue and attempts to resolve. https://www.saeb.net/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=3312&start=25 Moderator had me upload my APIM to the site. He found an issue in settings, sent me a revised APIM, Climate icon is back! Thanks to all here as well who...

@UofMEngineer> Thank you for responding with that information. I guess it might be smarter to hang loose until that "proper" upgrade is released rather than hacking away at the existing with ForScan. It ain't as much fun but.... probably safer. Cheers! :headbang:

@James Caper - I control the climate via the panel switches which in the Ranger are tough to see during the day. Black buttons on black dash in a black interior. Knobs would have been MUCH better. So that's one reason I want Climate back. I didn't revert to 3.3 yet. I really like 3.4 except for...

My understanding is that the APIM for v3.x of Sync is update capable within the Sync v3 versions. We will not be able to go to Sync 4 as the APIM hardware is different. In fact, the upgrade process (commonly referenced as USB1, USB2 & USB3) has a reformat utility on USB1 to get the Sync File...

@Anthony - Thanks, it will be interesting to hear what he has to say.

@Anthony >> If you're asking if they are the same as the ones I used from: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/upgrade-sync-3-v3-0-v3-4-instructions-458828/ then, I would have to answer "not exactly". The instructions I used also reference the use of 3 USB sticks to do the upgrade BUT, their...

Update 12-23-19 @2:50 ET: Battery Disconnect for 1/2 hr. Reconnect - no change. Climate icon still missing * The only thing that needed to be reset after reconnecting battery was the clock. All other settings in Sync were intact, including radio (Sirius/XM) pre-sets. Reset APIM to factory ABT...

LOL....the "text-lation" confusion strikes again! Yes, Settings options spans more than 1 screen, I know that at least. The "icon bar" at the bottom remains constant. It's weird since on Lariat trim, that Sync for Climate setting is a default. There was no need to ForScan add that, it came that...

@CoastieN70 > note that there are only 5 total icons across the bottom of the v3.4 screen image. Not 6 like the v3.3 image. No matter what function in 3.4 I select (Audio, Phone, Settings...etc) the same 5 icons appear on each screen. In 3.3 all 6 did.

Not sure what you mean? The 3.4 image shows the settings screen (screen it happened to be on when I took the pic) When I press the "Home" button to go back to the main 3.4 screen (same screen as my original v3.3 image post) the v3.4 Home screen is missing the climate icon as well. Is that what...

Ok, I will give that a try. Just to clarify the question in my original image upload of the Sync screen, here is the current screen from v3.4 *Note the missing Climate icon from the 3.3 image above. Thanks!

Hi James, it is the old 3.3 screen in the image. I posted that to show the climate icon. The 3.4 screen is blue as you say and minus that climate icon. I did try redoing the APIM but as I mentioned the climate icon was a default in from factory, no mods done for that. It was already there. The...

Need some expert help .. I know there are some REALLY knowledgable people on here. So, here goes... 2019 Ford Ranger, Lariat FX4... had previously done a fairly simple upgrade to Sync 3.3, build 19052 and I had a free map update from Ford to Nav 118. Other than the map version not changing in...

make sure you have formatted the USB stick as ExFat file system. The truck can't read Mac native format
