[thomasm23]

This update includes new maps and updated Gracenote version. To get this update use the following link:

https://www.ford.com/support/sync-maps-updates/

This is a large download to your Windows device or your Mac. Make sure you have a fast reliable connection. It may take over an hour to complete. Make sure your device does not go into sleep mode. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS.

You will need a USB-A or USB-C flash drive that is 16GB or larger. The flash drive will need to be reformatted to exFAT.

FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS and copy files to USB flash drive. This may take up to an hour.

We are now at 2 hours.

Time to update the vehicle. This will take an additional hour. Plan when taking a long drive. The vehicle must be running the entire time.

Remove any USB cables from the ports.

If you are experiencing any of the Sync 3.4 Build 22251 issues like rwdata, you will need to do the following. (If you are not experiencing any of the Build 22251 issues, go ahead and insert the flash drive and follow instructions.)

Note: This will clear all your SiriusXM stations saved. You will need to save them again.

Press and hold the volume/power button and the seek/forward button on the head unit. Do not release for 2 minutes. The screen will go black and restart many times.

Go to your iPhone or Android phone and open FordPass app. Deactivate the vehicle from FordPass.

After 2 minutes, let the screen come back to life. Go to settings and remove any phones paired via Bluetooth. Go to Apple CarPlay settings and remove any devices. Go to Android Auto settings and remove any devices.

Under Settings, General: Press Reset, Master Reset. Let the head unit restart.

Insert the flash drive in the ports under the climate controls. FOLLOW ON-SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS

Do not remove the flash drive. Do not turn off the engine.

This will take around an hour to complete.

My Nav Maps are now NA 2 22

I came up with this procedure after experiencing the MEM_ERR03 error.

This update will not update Sync 3.4 to a later build. As far as I can tell, this update does not correct the rwdata issues. We are still looking forward to a new build of Sync 3.4 to be released directly from Ford.

Glad it’s not complicated or time consuming! Said no one.

If you want you can also update the Sync version to 3.4.23088 or 3.4.23188 (this corrects the RWDATA issue/log files not compressing, which is/was the issue with the 3.4.22251 version) from Cyanlabs and yes it can be done with a MY20 APIM. Just follow the instructions. You can then update to the 2022 Nav without issue

Just asking.
Why did you pay the $40? As opposed to getting your complimentry download? Is one better than the other?

 

[rocks]

My 22251 system is working great. I didn't want to jeopardize that with the free download, I may screw up. I had a hard time doing my own download in a '19 Ranger I owned. I finally got it to work but I'd rather spend the $40 and just go with the USB. Quicker and easier.

Maybe i am not understanding, i thought you could just download the files to your own USB Drive on your laptop/desktop and then transfer to your vehicle via USB port?

Yes, you can but I'm not as computer savvy as many here. I did it on my '19 Ranger but it took too many attempts. I'll pay the $40 for an easier install.
