Micky8 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Can anyone please help, I have correctly updated the sync 3 to my recently purchased Focus 2018 via the download to USB. i have downloaded the Map update the same to USB which is 23GB, however when I plug into car the sync recognisers that a USB has been connected but nothing else happens no text to say start update etc, I have even driven the car for approx 30 minutes but nothing happens?

First did you format the USB to 'ExFat' ? Next you need to create a folder on the USB called SyncMyRide Place the downloaded file inside the folder. Place the Autoinstall file on the USB but not inside the folder. Remove all USB devices from all USB ports on the car. Start engine and Insert the USB with the Sync update in the the USB at the front of the centre console After about 30 seconds installation will start. see the following for full details: https://www.fordownersclub.com/search/?q=syncmyride&quick=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wino Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Did you remove the SYNC 3 update from the USB before you put the map update on the USB itself ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky8 Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 Hi Many thanks for your reply, I did have the USB ExFat and the download files were copied ok, I have done what you suggested I cleared the USB and started again and created a folder syncMyRide then copied the files into this from the download, Inserted into car and all is ok, it took approx 30 minutes for stage one and then 45 minutes stage 2. All up to date now. once again my first question as new member has been successfully answered and resolved Many Thanks. Micky8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
