Easy Sync 3.4 Update & Sync 3 Maps Update!

- Thanks for checking out my video on how to update your Sync 3 unit to have Sync 3.4 and the latest maps package! This video goes over everything you need to know to create a USB update thumbdrive using the CyanLabs Syn3Updater on a Windows PC. If you have any questions, feel free to drop them below!
If you're getting a USB hub error after updating -- your car is most likely a 2016 model that didn't come with a CarPlay Compatible USB hub. To get rid of this error and get CarPlay working you'll need to replace your hub with a newer model (affiliate links below).
If your car has a single port hub, get this: amzn.to/3qAaJlE
If your car has a dual port hub, get this: amzn.to/2LI2GnK

Great Video - Just as a note for EU maps it can take almost 1 hour, NA is about 30 minutes like said in the video. Also please keep note of your log URL so if you have any issues we can pin point the issue easier
EDIT: additionally, note that a MASTER RESET is highly recommended after the install is complete, it will fix 99% of problems people can experience
Is there any problem if I changed the region?
@@saifaljaafreh technically yes, firstly CyanLabs does not support changing region, secondly depending on what region it may not fit, if you change region you will need to make multiple AsBuilt edits via ForScan, NaviUpgrade may be willing to assist further in this regard but i am not.
Hey if I bought a new screen and done the sync 3.4 installation on that. Can I effectively go back to my original screen that will have sync 3.0 or will the update override the vehicle itself ?
Thanks to Navi Upgrade for the walkthrough video, and CyanLabs for making an easy to use workaround for the updates. The download from the Ford website never worked in my car, but CyanLabs came to my rescue.
I live in the UK, and I can confirm that the download for the EU maps took ages, and around 50 minutes to install on my car. Everything worked flawlessly, thank you!
I've donated a sum of money to CyanLabs for their efforts into developing software that was easy to use and stress free installation in the car! xxx
I would like to change region fro US to the middle east (Iraq) , is there problem doing that ? Is it possible to reduce ROW maps to the middle east only?
As this video is 2 years old the website and installer have changed a bit but this video provides enough info that it was not hard for me to navigate the newer version successfully. My Sync 3.0 was messed up and locking up, Bluetooth would not work etc... I am on the latest 2022 build and it is working as it should now. Thank you! The only thing I would warn is to be careful what you click on to download the installer. There are now adware download buttons all over the page. I accidently downloaded and installed something I did not want. I de-installed it and found the correct download button and everything went smooth. I suggest taking your time before you click and make sure you look carefully.
Thank you soo much, I've tried to update my Ford Mondeo 2018 since 6 years, no success. Now everything worked like a charm.
Disclaimer: If you do this in Europe, the maps are huge, in the video it tooked 28 minutes, my Mondeo did it in 44 minutes.
Just update this afternoon. A little nervous with the warning that it might ruin my system but all went well. Extremely easy to do. Moved my 2018 Explorer from 3.0 to 3.4. Also upgrade my maps for 2/20 to 2/21.Thanks for this great video!
I have a 2018 Explorer as well. Going to update this weekend
I just followed the instructions in this video to update the Sync 3 system in my 2016 Ford F-150. It worked flawlessly. I went from version 2.2 to 3.4. It woks great and the interface looks better.
Big thank you. Before this method I was able to update to version 3.0 and no further updates were visible. With this one.. worked like a charm... however it took 50minutes (I did not see this information before update hehe) . 2017 Focus ST MK3, EU maps. Great work CyanLabs for software and NaviUpgrade for tutorial. Kudos for you guys!
The newest downloaded has none of the options to enter your current information. Plz advise. Is this still safe to use or has it been compromised?
@@eg2006 but it has. You put your information in Home tab. Pick region, than version (your SYNC3 version) and than current maps version. However i updated my SYNC with older version of SYN3Updater
I just did this update to my 2016 Lariat F-150, I can confirm fordpass still works, ambient light option is still there, in fact i didn't loose any function. All my forscan mod remained, though i had to re-put my climate seat button on the screen. It is important to know that the file downloads to your computer first then it automatically transfers it to your usb, i was stuck on this part because i selected the usb drive but it kept stopping after a few min because my computer's hard drive was full, i had to delete some stuff from my pc for it to finish downloading. Once it finished, it just automatically transferred to to the usb i had initially selected. It took me about 36 min to finish installing. Thanks for the video.
Great video. I have a UK Ford Mondeo Titanium Auto wagon late 2016 with Sync 3. I updated through Ford website and it still couldn't get my contacts up on screen. Used Cyan and bingo! Took about an hour once stick was plugged into USB, Just left it in on way to work. Whilst updating it displays a progress bar and cycles between three pictures. One hour later, a new streamlined interface, with all my contacts coming up, and F19 and EU 2020 maps. Still works with Ford live traffic update aswell! Obviously the new software has things like reversing cam etc in other menus, hardware, that my car was never fitted with originally. I am very pleased with this. Long live Linux.
Using for about a week now. Just two minor bugs that I've noticed. When starting car sometimes it takes a little longer loading up my SSD with all my music connected, and therefore defaults to radio. Soon afterwards it sees the SSD again and I just select it and starts playing from where it left off. Also another minor bug is jumping occasionally like if I had a CD playing but with MP3's. I play back same section and there is no jump. It's almost as if it's trying to do something in the background that maxes it out for a split second. Like I say only minor.
Worked like a charm! I have a '16 F150 non nav with the older USB hub. (I use android auto instead of Apple car play.) It took about 6 mins to install. I did officially already had 3.0. 20204 installed from ford owner site if anyone has any issues why 3.4 won't install. Thanks again. This makes it so much less trouble to get the files and take the guess work out of it. You got a new sub. 😀
Glad to hear it worked, Steve! Remember that when you update your USB hub you'll get Android Auto and Apple CarPlay working!
@@NaviUpgrade Android auto will work on older USB hubs. If you want Apple car play, you have to upgrade to newer hub. Android auto working fine on 3.4!🙂
@@stevefjordan its not working for me. If i get the upgraded usb will it help ?
Just updated my 2017 Escape to 3.4 with Cyan Labs. Took 90 minutes to download to USB and 30 minutes to install in the car. If you follow the instructions the install is EASY 🙂
I literally just bought a 2015 GT that the previous owner upgraded to Sync3. It was on 3.0 and I just upgraded to the latest 3.4 through your process and I now have working Android Auto! THANKS!
So, I do seem to have a problem. Whether I'm connected to Bluetooth or through Android Auto when I try to make a call it switches to the radio and I can't hear the call and the other side of the call can't hear me. Same thing if I receive a call.
Worked great, took exactly 29 mins. I’m extremely impressed, I have a 2018 Explorer Limited with Nav. After the update my Bose sound system sounds sooo much better!!! The subwoofer sounds so much deeper and it actually “hits” Super happy, even my wife loves the fresh look. I’ll check back ever so often to see if any updates are available. Thanks again!
Super nice. Super easy. I had a scare when my navigation stayed on the loading maps screen for a long time. After a while I checked it and it was perfect I suppose it may have connected to my wifi and finished. But, very nice, very well executed application. As good as or better then any I have seen in my 64 years. Thank you. It is a fine product. You should be proud. I am kind of gushing but these days it is hard to find quality. This is it. 👍
I did it today, with Navigation it takes about 40 min. It works fine. Like he said, follow the instruction point by point.
I just did this upgrade and when it first restarted I had no Maps but I did the reset and it all works great! Thanks for your tutorial!
I've spent the last 12 hours straight and a couple of gallons at least idling trying to get it updated on a 2016 Escape so I could use Android Auto... I was just about to give up when this godsend of a video autoplayed during the last attempt... Thank you so much... Why does Ford need to be so incompetent with software releases?...
I was a little spooked when I did the last step and was greeted by a "USB hubs are not supported. Please remove." message, but the ports do work, and I now have Android Auto! Thank you again! I might ask about it in the discord and roll the version back.
Glad to hear it worked out for ya!
Great tutorial! Worked perfect on my 2018 mustang gt going from 3.0 to 3.4.
Hi Buddy, just upgraded my New Zealand 2017 Focus from V2.216280 with ANZ 1.15 to the new V3.4 22110 map ANZ2.21 . Was apprehensive about doing such a big jump in version numbers, but with CYANLABS web site and your clear easy instructions it went smooth as. Took 20 mins to upload. When it was at the stealership for its last warranty service I asked for the SYN3 to be upgraded, couldnt , wouldnt do it, toooo hard or dont know how. Honestly a 10 year old of today can do it THANKYOU
I want to thank you for the excellent tutorial. Everything went without error, the update worked for about 55 minutes., software update with Navi . Ford Focus 2017 1.5 petrol
Glad to hear it!
Thanks
Just updated my Ford sync 3.4 to the latest map update NA 2 22. At one point it said that I could remove the USB drive and I did. It rebooted and was saying insert USB drive. I thought that I just screwed up the installation bur after a couple of minutes it started downloading from the USB drive. It took about 31 minutes to finish and reboot. Didn't screw anything up and now have the latest on my Ford Escape. Just a note, before doing this Sync update which I was already running 3.4 I had gone onto the Ford site and bought the map update for my vehicle (what a dumbass) needless to say it would not load at all what a waste of money! I kept searching the internet for updates and came upon this site. Glad that I did!!
Thank you very much, it worked. What car dealerships can't do with lots of money and time, works smoothly here.
Thanks for the help. I thought that my navigation was broke and this fixed it. No more flying over the countryside.
Thanks for all your help! My Sync 3.3 was having issues with my Apple CarPlay not connecting all the time and you helped me with my update and now it works great!
Thank you! Like others have said, after trying to update via the Ford website with no luck this worked perfectly on my 2018 Fiesta! Very happy😎👍🏻
Sweet, glad to hear it 🤘
Just updated my 2019 F350. Great video and Weblinks. Followed all instructions, no issues. Love the updated version Sync 3.4! Thanks Brian!!
Does your Ford pass app still work
@@crakkajakka15 Yes! no problems.
Thanks for posting this! Been trying to update the Sync3 system in my 2018 F150 all weekend but kept getting errors using the files downloaded direct from Ford. This worked flawlessly!
Hi.. I just upgraded my 2018 f150 xlt. My brightness adjustment is not available. It's faded out. Do you have same problem.
@@rajkohli2623 the brightness adjustment worked fine for me early this morning but I just noticed it is faded out right now. Maybe it allows adjustments at night only? I’ll have to check later.
@@bradybingham2317 thanks.. Plz let me know. I know there is issue with brightness with sync 3.4. One lady posted the video on TH-cam. And she did update from ford directly.
@@rajkohli2623 I just confirmed that Sync 3.4 only allows brightness adjustment when the display Mode is set to Auto and the display is currently displaying in Dark mode. The brightness adjustment selection is available once the display changes to Dark mode, but not if you set the Mode to Dark manually.
Thanks for this! How does it impact Sync Automatic System Updates? Will these still download and install on there own, or are you now forced to do future updates manually?
Thanks for the video. I did on my 2018 Fusion Energi and worked fine. Energy Flow and Charging screens work just fine. I found the interface more responsive overall. Big thanks!
Hello did face any problem ?
Is the voice command works fine?
When start car is it show ford or mustang logo ?
And is ford mobile app and vehicle locater still working ?
As well ford pass app ?
@@abdalraoufbalbesi6688 Ford Mobile works fine and locator as well. Voice and Siri commends works as well. Ford Pass does not work with Energi models because it's a EV.
I've not been able to update in years, so I was very excited to see this. I followed the instructions perfectly and I uploaded my log files. When I insert the thumb drive, I get this message immediately, "Installation paused The USB storage device has been changed or removed. Installation will resume when the device is re-inserted." Of course, I then removed and re-inserted multiple times. In fact, I tried multiple USB ports in the car. Every time, I instantly get the same message.
I'm encouraged though because this is the first time I've had Sync recognize the thumb drive. I've tried for years on the Ford site and my Sync never recognized the thumb drive. So, this is progress. If you have any thoughts, I'll give it a try. I'm happy to be a trouble shooter.
I like your video. you are the only one who presents short and what you need. Bravo.If I have the climate installed in Sync, does it stay or is it deleted?Sorry if I'm not writing correctly.
Hey there, thanks! So your climate will still be on screen but the controls might not work completely in the correct manner. This is a bug that hasn't been squashed yet. We're waiting on an official fix from Ford 🥺
You are a genius! I just upgraded my 2016 Expedition following your instructions. Works perfectly. Thanks
Great to hear!
@@NaviUpgradecan i use this more than once? I have a 2017 f250 that worked flawlessly and have another 2017 f250 with the same build and version. Do I have to redo the whole usb or can i just stick the usb in my other truck also?
@@downsouthrapvault if it's equipped the same you can... Just make sure that it's absolutely the same - like if one truck has nav and the other doesn't you would NOT want to do that and just recreate the USB. Keep in mind if you made this more than 6 months ago, there's a new version out that is probably the best version that Ford has released in a year or so
@@NaviUpgrade they both have nav and the exact same build and features etc and just created it a week ago
@@downsouthrapvault send it then!
This is awesome! I have been having freezing issues with my 2016 Escape titanium with the 3.0 update from ford and I couldn't find any other options to get the maps updated. Now everything works perfectly! Thanks for the information and the video!
My latest update attempt obviously didn't finish correctly. From time to time, I'd get the "update in progress" pop-up when starting the vehicle. I decided to give this update & process a go. It worked like a charm, although the update process did restart a few time before finally completing. Thanks!
Thanks! Worked just as described on my 2016 Expedition Platinum. Now I just need to change the hub. The USB still works, just no CarPlay.
Awesome video, very helpful. seems alittle complicated to do at first but just followed the video and went along at the same time. attempted using the ford website multiple times but never worked. this worked first try perfectly.
thankyou for the video i have had no luck on updates fron ford but your update worked great on my 2018 f150
Thanks for your hard Work!
Upgrade my Transit Connect 2017 from Sync 3.0.20204 to Sync 3.4.21265 +F10 Maps without My20 Protect (EU Version) .
Very smooth and with Logos :)
Used this to get the update on my 2018 Focus ST! In all honesty I wouldn't of been brave enough to try this without your video and I'm so glad I was able to do this.
Thank you man, I really appreciate you!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching! 😀 Consider subscribing for more cool tricks and hacks!
Once you download the update to the USB drive can use it more than once Great video thank you
Awesome Video! The process went super smooth and was installed within and hour start to finish!
Just did your step by step walkthrough on my 18 Raptor and it worked flawlessly. Thank you so much!
Any issues with the brightness option. My 2018 f150 xlt brightness option is not working after updating.
Thank you for this update. I have a 2016 mustang GT and my sync 3 System was lagging and very slow to respond to the buttons touching. Sometimes it would take a minute after hitting a button I did the update after several attempts from the Ford website which did not work and download the North America maps and everything looks new and flawless. Thank you for the info I really appreciate everything
Michael, did you Android Auto still work?
@@ThePartock I don’t know about android auto but I have an iPhone and everything works just fine. There is a newer upgrade than the one the guy was explaining to download on the USB I guess because it just came out like a couple weeks ago and that’s the one that I picked the newest 3.4 upgrade which was one step ahead of his and it explains in the notes box that there are no issues whatsoever so I doubt you will have problems using your android but as far as android auto I have no idea, I do not have Apple CarPlay because I need that special USB box but I am fine with my iPhone Working on the system as it is
This worked for me perfectly! Thanks for taking the time to help.
Very helpful video. Upgraded my new to me Sync 3 1.0 system to 3.4.
I donèt subscribe to a lot of people on youtube or comment. Thus was an exceptional video, very precise and well presented. Thumbs up!
Hello from Germany, IT works great good Job, 48 minutes after the Installation everythinks work good thank you
Hy Brian. Thank you very much for you video. Awesome. Clear, direct, no unneeded information. Kudos.
If you please, help me with two questions:
1. I have a 2017 Ford Ecosport Titanium with maps. Where do I download the maps for my region, Brazil?
2. Does the voice package is from Portuguese Brazil, or Portugal?
Again, thank you very much for your help, and fantastic work.
Best regards
Hey Daniel, thanks for your kind words. Choose the ANZ region for South America 👍 this will have SA Maps and Voice Packages 💪
@@NaviUpgrade Again, thanks a lot for your kind help. Great to have you around. Best regards.
Daniel, tenho uma Eco Storm. Acredito ser a mesma versão de sync que a sua. Você fez o procedimento, deu certo? Obrigado.
@@carlosdassie1 Boa tarde Carlos. Ainda não tive coragem, estou com medo de bagunçar meus mapas. Voce foi mais valente que eu e fez? Deu certo?
@@Danielcarneirodigita tô nessa tb kkk não consegui ver alguém fazendo por aqui, ou alguém no mínimo postando ou vendendo o serviço rsrs.
Novidades falamos aqui.👍
The cyan labs is a bit different now and so much other crap on that site. You gotta be careful. Really appreciate the tutorial and as always, good job. Sometime I wish I could read the screen, bit it's pretty self explanatory if you are on it when your watching it.
I will be making an updated video once 2021 maps are out later this month. Thanks for following the channel!
Thanks so much. Worked great on my 2011 Edge that is running Sync 3 from a 2019 Mustang
Thank you for the video. I loaded 3.4 into my 2017 F150 that has navigation but my thumb drive was only able to load update without maps. So it did take 3.4 but now I have no maps....lol
I'm going to purchase a 32gb thumb drive and try to re-update it and re-install. Hopefully I can get my navigation back.
UPDATE: I did get me the larger thumb drive and reinstalled and everything works fine and maps too. Thank you for the video. 👍👍
super easy and fast. installed to a usb and then my explorer and it did everything itself and didn't really take long. thanks!
Thank you everything works as expected updating my sync 3.0 to sync 3.4 on my 2018 F150
hi @emil , i have 2018 f150 as well, and upgraded to 3.4 22020 build and my AA worked in the beginning now it's not, which build did you upgrade to?
worked great. 2017 f150 sync 3 version 2.2 to 3.4. thanks!
GREAT GREAT video. Worked perfect on my 2018 F150 Lariat. Everything is working perfect. Sirious XM. NAV, apps, phone. May I ask what is the purpose in a "Master Reset"?
Worked like a charm! Thank you!
The update is fine, it's a pity it doesn't show the current speed of the car, this information is in every map navigation, but still good ... !!
Thank you for this great Video. İ have made the Update like you show and its works 👍👍👍 now i have Update from Sync 3.0 to 3.4. Before the Update i had a Problem with my Sync 3. The Sync says NO NAVİGATİON. i was to the Service by Ford. They could not help me!!! Then İ think the Apim is not working. I wanted buy a new Apim Modul, then i see your Video. You help me very well, i dont need to buy a new Apim Modul. Thank you 👍👍👍🙏 many greatings from Germany.
Thank that was easy works great,,,, will there be newer maps other than 1 19? please keep us posted
Thanks for your video. I just did my upgrade from 3.0 to 3.4. I noticed i have no climate control from the panel. My vehicle is 2018 f150 xlt.
Great video. My wofes 2010 edge limited has never been updated. Can I use this to update it to the current version?
If you have a 2010 it will have sync 1 which is an entirely different operating system. I think it updates sync via usb and the navigation via DVD disc and my 2012 taurus had the same type, though I think Ford only has a limited number of navigation discs available. In 2011 through 2015 the edge had sync 2 which could be upgraded to sync 3. And in 2016 the edge and escape came with sync 3 only.
Can I upgrade my wife’s 2014 Lincoln MKX to Sync 3?
@@darrellreed7044 yes
Update works great, the only thing is when you get a song alert, it is the whole screen.
Great tutorial. Will this work for my 2017 Navigator without changing the color scheme and Lincoln badge when starting the car?
So in the beginning of the video it shows what Lincoln will look like before and after... The only changes will be those visual changes. If you like the 'after' look, go ahead and update!
@@NaviUpgrade thanks so much. I was curious because it doesn’t seem like many Lincoln owners have done this and replied here. Much appreciated!
@@kennethdukes1141 ohhhh, didn't realize this is my old video on this. Go to my channel and go see the most recent video.
@@NaviUpgrade I literally just finished watching it a little while ago and am sitting in my Navigator while it installs now.
Great Video!!!
But I have a question, as I was working around with the tool. For me, it also shows options for 2020 maps or 2019 maps, which makes sense they probably brought 2020 maps now, but wanted to ask you if it is safe to go ahead with 2020 maps?
Hey there, I may have a problem with my sync 3.4 system …
So typically I just updated a few months ago and it was working fine, i did 3days ago the (master reset) now every time I start the car the system get reset again, please help me figure out what the problem !
Hi, after doing the updates do you need to do a MASTER RESET
I did those steps, but what I need to do now is to update maps to middle east maps, as I live in Dubai, and my car was imported from Canada, so if you can help me would be great. thanks in advance
Great video. New version asked about MY20. What is that, and how do I know if I have it? Guessing no for a 2018 F150. Thanks.
Great video. I'm curious if this is a general Sync update for all models? I have a 2017 Ford Flex Limited.
I want to be sure that the climate screens, etc. will show the rear controls, and what is needed for my Flex.
Obviously, a Focus or F-series wouldn't have those features.
Worked like a charm, Man. Thanks!
Glad to hear, brotha!
hello, the software does not detect any usb key. I tried 3 different ones. Need help
If you go for a spin while updating, be sure to disable auto start/stop first--just in case you hit a red light or something.
What is the difference between getting the update from CYAN vs getting from the Ford owner portal? Thanks!
Thank you. It worked for me.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching.
Great video. Will this cause USB hub errors on a 2017 Escape SE? It did on a 2016 C-max Energi SEL
The information is very good, but the syc3 application has a new version 2.11.8.0 where the new version is a little different than the one you used also asks for preparation of the Interrogator (logging) the software is looking for an xml file from syncmyride folder of your USB drive
Great video.... I think now even I can get this done!!! Well done.
You can do it! 🤘
@@NaviUpgrade Yes, Yes I did. Finished half an hour ago. Worked perfectly. That said, like another watcher said, after I plugged the thumb drive it and pressed the scan for updates, it took 20 minutes before it found the drive... Then it took 31:35 min/sec to complete the update, which included the 2019 maps. The improvements are well worth it. Thanks for the video and the encouragement.
I read someone's review who said if you upgrade to sync 3.4, you have to plug your android phone into the car because it won't automatically connect like it did with sync 3. Also I am wondering if there is any way to update the screen readout to work like the newer models where, while you are entering say an address, instead of the whole screen going dark when you turn the fan down, only the area outside the fan circle goes dark.
Thanks for the great videos. I purchased an 8" screen/ APIM w/ NAV as an upgrade from a salvage yard for my 2018 Expedition Max XLT. How can find out the Sync 3 version on this donor prior to downloading the upgrade files from CyanLabs as they require to enter the current Sync version? Don't have a bench tester, really would appreciate your help on this.
I just completed the update on my 2017 F150. Thanks for the walk-through!
Now that I'm on 3.4, will I receive the updates from Ford moving forward or will I need to use Sync3Updater every time there's a new version?
You'll have to use Syn3Updater every time... Not a huge deal since I've actually never seen a OEM WiFi update actually work 😅
@@NaviUpgrade Very true. The Ford website said I needed a Sync update but it would never appear when I checked for updates in the truck. Thanks again.
Hey I have a 2017 F150 as well. Are you having any issues or missing features ever since you updated via this method? I just wanna be sure before I do it to mine.
@@ibitaRaptor I haven't noticed any issues since I performed the update. I've used stock NAV, Android Auto, Sirius, FM radio, Bluetooth audio, calls and everything works for me.
Can you do an update with the new Sync3 Updater with the MY20 Protect feature for those of us that have the MY20 APIM. Thanks
How do you know if it's a Navigation model vs a non-nav? Just because it has a map menu option?
@NaviUpgrade I updated today to 3.4 on my 2019 Mustang. Everything works well except I can't pair my phone. Keeps searching but fails. I can plug my phone in thru USB and it works fine anything I can do?
How to you fix the lack of voice reply to text messages? Using forscan maybe on the 3.4 sync
What if I want to change the map's region from the USA to Iraq (Middle East) and South Africa? Would this method work? Is there any way to do that? Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I was just about to update sync 3 in my 2016 F150 from the Ford site. Do I need to do this prior to updating from your site?
Hi !
So how can I change my navigation maps version because I recently change country ?
Thanks for your answer.
Do i need to start the ignition
Thanks for the support... but what if I don’t own a windows operating system? We only have Mac’s! Is there anything I can do? - Thanks
I have a Mac and i had the same problem. You can download this software called virtual box, and download a windows iso image from Microsoft. (There are tutorials on how to set it up). Once windows is installed, you can download the software. You’ll have to google how to add a usb device into the os so you can download it to the usb stick. If you can’t figure out something, comment back and I might be able to help.
Hey i got 3.4 but is it possible to Upgrade only the map? Not update + map?
Hello I updated sync3.4 on my used Ford Escape but mistakenly from the official Ford website. Now things seems successful at first, but on a deeper inspection, I noticed my HD radio disappeared same with my FM radio infos ! is there a way to fix it ? I did a master reset but its not fixing the problem...
First, Great Video, everything installed as advertised. I have a problem with the speed limit sign icon, its the European sign (round with red border) and I no longer get traffic info on the freeways (color indicates slow or stopped traffic, yellow, red...). Can I change something to put it back to the US speed signs. Also, my language setting is English (UK). I downloaded the NA maps and settings. Did I do something wrong?
Is there a way to do just a map update? I have a Shelby, if I did the full sync 3 and map update would I lose my Cobra boot up image?
Thanks for the video. My 2017 F250 has Sync 3, version 3.0
I tried to update today to 3.0.20204, it said it updated, but it still shows 3.0 on the About section in the system.
Does this take a 3.0 and updates it past the version I was trying to install? Is this OK for my year?
Has anyone upgraded a 2017 F250 Sync 3, version 3.0 successfully to the latest version 3.4.
Sorry to ask such a basic question, however, my Build number is blank on my 2017 F350 (US based). I followed your directions perfectly, yet, have nothing showing just the word "Build". How do I go about finding this hidden build number? I do show Sync 3 and my nav maps are NA 1 15, so, a much older build. Thanks.
*Update: I chatted with Ford on their Sync page. I was asked for contact info and VIN. After a few minutes, the person at the other end was able to find my build number in their system. Will now try to download based on 3.0.19205 Build , however, Ford says the only update for my truck is 3.0.20204. Fingers crossed their build number was correct and that this new 3.4 works. The download to the thumb drive only took 32 minutes. Upload to the truck was 28 mins as advertised. It appears to work. Thanks!
Good Day Sir... did you every experience any issues with the 3.4 Sync LOAD? I want to do mine but i don't want to mess anything up. Same as you i contacted ford and they told me build 20204 was the lasted build.
I got a red screen when I plugged into the USB in my truck....I then unplugged the USB from the truck and the red screen went away, and started repartitioning without the thumb drive plugged in. The sync version I chose was the newer one than yours in this video. Sync 3.4 build 20351
Hi For the 2016 Expedition most posts say you need to upgrade the hub first. Can you speak to the necessity ?
You need to upgrade the USB hub if you want carplay to work. You can do the update with the USB hub that you have now, but it's going to give an error with sync 3.4. also, this is an old video, make sure to watch the newest video on my channel for updating
@@NaviUpgrade I dont see one newer on your site?
Do you know if it matters if the last two letters are different? Your last two letters in the zip file were AM all im getting is AX.
