I’m surprised if the fob battery is low/failing that you aren’t getting the warning alert on your dash on startup. My Lariat is around the same age as yours, built January 2019, and I started to get this warning about 6 months ago. Changed the fob battery and all is good again.

You most likely have version 22251 of Sync. It’s a problem version (see here) with these issues as you have. Remedy is a new version (23188 I think?) that should be available to you. See the linked thread above for more info and help.

Grrrr, so I’m having nothing but problems now. I’ve done four or five upgrades in the past using the USB method with no issues, but this one might have screwed me. Was upgrading from a bad-working version 22251. Did a “soft” reset first. Had the truck in Park, plugged in the USB and up came...

If I recall it was also only in Crew Cab as well up here?

I got lucky and didn’t update with that one that messed up the climate control. That was a prime candidate for a QA miss, quite badly unfortunately. This new one (with version 22251) with the log file filling up/whatever I would actually give the QA team somewhat of a pass because this is...

My ‘19 does the same. When I first noticed it a couple years ago thought it might be a rodent but it was not. My HVAC seems to work fine. I just chalk it up to ‘normal operation’ of the truck’s systems.

Step 1: Do not compare it to a BMW, it will not drive like one.

Jumpin jeheesefers, 6k already?? 👍

Out of curiosity, what type of driving do you typically do, and has that pattern changed since the warmer/hotter temperatures lately? My ‘19 seems to still be where it’s always been, just above minimum.

Slightly older thread but I’m gonna ask anyways: Any “simple “ cleaners for winter salt stains? I’ve got a bit of a track that doesn’t come out easily with the vacuum. Along the door sill area and the go-pedal area (accelerator area). Any advice for a simple (‘ish) cleaning agent? If not...

I don’t/didn’t.

New glitch added to my previous ones - On Saturday I used Navigation and got to my destination, pressed “close” as usual. Made the trip home with no nav as I knew where to go from there. About a 20 minute highway drive. No new issues. Sunday morning, gotta make a run to the grocery store and...

Which is a complete waste of parts that could have gone to legitimately failed modules in vehicles that are stuck waiting on them. It sure looks like it’s actually version 22251 that is the problem here. Last I checked about a week ago there was no update yet, not sure if that’s changed.

Curious to know what version is your Sync at with this replacement, or did nothing change there?

Not sure myself, but would like to think that a future update (perhaps the one numbered 23088) fixes it. It’s still workable (I don’t have the black screen issue though), so I’ll just wait until a new update is released.

No need for calling a name, could be someone’s daughter with a new job… but either way, she gave you a better diagnosis than many mechanics would… if it’s not the right thing, they’ll fix it.

Here’s something from a fellow enthusiast @thomasm23 from the Bronco Sport forums had to say, and this is 99.999% my take on it right now: “This is not a hardware issue. The APIM is not defective. If you are paying for this, you are wasting your money. The issue is a software issue. Logs are...

Thanks for posting the follow up! It’s really so up in the air what can happen once a battery is on it’s way out in these things now.
