Not at all. IPC updates are about 200MB. APIM updates are the biggest ones; those can be up to 6GBs and are also done over the air. The problem is that all manufacturers (with the exception of Tesla and Rivian) struggle with rolling out over the air updates properly and in a timely manner.
I have yet to hear of any BS or Bronco owner report this happening. I am also on the Bronco6G forum. A few of the guys there have upgraded their 21-24 Broncos with the full digital cluster that comes on the 2025 and had some concerns about it since the dealer will not be able to apply the update...
I think most people would agree, but seeing the temp on the screen at anytime without having to adjust the a/c is nice. Unless you have a 2021 BS that has the digital temps on the HVAC module itself, this is a nice work-around.
Nice! Make a write up of what you did. I will probably follow your lead on this. I don't care about this feature on my F150; don't really need it since my truck has literally 8 cameras . 🤣 However, I would love to add this to our BS.
I can't anymore. I swapped out the APIM in ours and I am running Sync 4 now. But when it had the Sync 3 module, the option for reverse tilt mirrors did appear. However, it was grayed out and I was not able to toggle it on/off.
A code scanner is dirt cheap if you want to check it for codes. Or, if your Fordpass is connected, message me the VIN and I can check if it is reporting any codes.
In terms of your OP, the TCU is the modem and the GWM is the gateway module. Yes.....reprogramming these modules is one solution to...
For me, it's just a force of habit to say truck at this point since I've spent so much time on the F150 forums. I've slipped up and called a Mach E a truck on that forum, too. 😬 🤣
I guess the BS is closer to a truck than it is to a car.
Either it sold, or they sent it to auction. My store will keep a trade for 60-90 days before sending it to auction if it doesn't sell and most dealers have similar practices.
The real Ford account is @Ford Motor Company and is managed by a guy named Brian. I am not sure how much of a presence he has on this forum since the BS market is small compared to other Ford vehicles, but he has a lot of presence on the F150, Mach E and Lightning forums.
