tonycollinet Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Excellent news - finally. Will update later (out on my bike now 馃檪 ) Is there any reduction to the number of annoying pop ups that must be acknowledged on screen every time the car is started?

CallMeSteven Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Silly question. I am little worried about doing the update. If for any reason it fails does it have any fail safe? Would it just reset to the original firmware? Also, I originally read sometime ago that you should keep the engine running to do updates?

It will auto reboot after the first stage. It will ask you to power off the car and back on for the final stage then tell you to remove the usb.聽 聽 Mine took 2 hours so save it for a long trip or be prepared to have the car sat on the drive running for a while. Remember that the car will shut the engine off after it鈥檚 been stationary for about 20-30 mins and you have to be there to override the message (it only shows for 30s before shut off).聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jollyandy Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Something you may not be aware of, update 20136 has a bug in it that defaults the display to radio mode when playing music from USB. This has now been fixed with a later update, which I鈥檝e just installed using the Cyanlabs method, complete with the new version of F9 maps. As a bonus this version also shows radio station logos too, without having to use Forscan to enable them. 聽Added bonus too, it only took just over an hour, as I鈥檓 nearly out of warranty I took the plunge and did it, although I have a 2018 Fiesta the systems are pretty much the same.聽Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 You don鈥檛 need forscan. It鈥檚 just that you need a newer version of the dab logos. My biggest issue with cyan labs is that it completely wipes and reformat a instead of updating like ford packages do. It鈥檚 a very brute force way of doing it.聽 聽 I never had the usb bug on 20136.聽 聽 I do have a double skip bug using the controls under the display on 20196 though. Main reason I鈥檓 sticking with it is because I much prefer the new audio screen layout.聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are about a dozen files it has to download for the map update. It will take some time. Usually they update overnight so finish by the time you need the car again.聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
