What card have you bought?

  • Author

I brought the f5 card 

Looks like sync 1. Not sure if the F cards work with it?

Did you get the card from the dealer?

Do you still have your old card? Did it look like this:

20180526_143650.thumb.jpg.f350be2284b9b47c81bef52b3f746e69.jpg

needs v card, not f card. normaly when it gives that error it is either the sd card is not fully inserted, give it an extra push in with a screwdriver. or the screen is faulty. 

Ahh I thought so. What version was your old card?

It didn't have a card in there when u got the car I brought the card off ebay just to Check it as I rang the Ford dealer an they wanted 130 just for the card an I asked them what card I needed an that's the one they said how much are the v cards

I have just been on ford Website and put my vin number in and it says my car doesn't have sync what does that mean, 

nothing. you havent got sync. 

ford sell v cards for about £85 , be wary of ebay as alot are copies that dont work. 

That's odd. That looks like a sync 1.1 screen? Did some of the 4" LCDs not come with sync equipped??

I'm currently selling a V4.1 card on ebay as part of a job lot with my old sync 1.1 screen. If you want I'll seperate it out from the listing and you can have it for £15 posted?

It definitely works as I used it in my car for the past year!

Edit: I should say that card I'm selling won't be as up to date as the one Ian linked to and is western Europe only. It's the one in the picture above actually lol!

Non sync Bluetooth/voice uses same screen type but don't think  it's interchangable with a sync based system .the nav system/ screen originaly came out in 2011 before sync.

Stevens profile indicates a 2011 focus.

They all use the v card. 

Yeah my 2014 used that v card above but that was sync 1.1.

I am actually selling a whole sync 1.1 system.

Edit: except the fascia and the cd player which have just sold on eBay lol!

Thank you guys been a great help think I will sell the f5 card first then buy the v card if you send me the item number on ebay I will have a look am I right you can't update the cards yourself and just have to buy a new one with the updates? 

Yeah that's right. The cards are encrypted.

Ebay item no 113028030956.

As I say, it's currently bundled with the nav screen, but when you're ready for it, let me know and I'll edit that listing and post the card up separately.

Just to let you know @Steven27, I've now sold the screen but the buyer didn't want the card, so it's yours if you want it as above. 

There's no listing for it on eBay so if you do still want it, either let me know here or I'll post on ebay if you prefer.
