No, last time maps updated to 9.0. Took a while bit by bit but it got there. Isn't showing anything available yet on update search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kicked up a fuss at Ford customer services, gave them a full detailed rundown on what had happened, missing files etc...etc.. they sent me an email with a link to a direct download of the maps software. They said they had a few complaints from other users with the exact same problem which I have heard is a typical Ford response. Anyway got fed up of leaving the engine running on the driveway especially when the engine kept doing an auto switch off( For some reason it kept re enabling itself) so went for a long drive(90 mins) and Voila....updated now to Version 10 maps. Now I have to play cat and mouse with finding the log file as usual to upload to Ford. So there it is mate, all sorted out now, and a Mega thanks to you for all the time and patience you took in helping. Well done mate 🙂 cheers Steve Finally! Glad you’re all updated. No problem with the help either. The log file should be in your SyncMyRide folder. If not you can download a standalone interrogator to generate the log file. It’s in the troubleshooting drop down section of the Sync update page. Cheers, Col Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavroz Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 This morning, Sync has updated to 21020 itself and has partially downloaded another file which is guess is the start of the maps. It does take a long while although it is connected via WiFi to a 5g connection whilst on the drive. When I get in from work, I will press the ignition and just leave this on again to progress the download hopefully. The last update took a good while doing it little by little.

Mavroz Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 If it helps any, I stop the engine when I get on the drive, open the driver door to get out and press the ignition button without starting the engine. This allows the download to continue via WiFi. Yes this times out after a while but the engine isn't running. The download also appears to carry on from where it left off according to the blue progress bar. It does take a long while like this but I am more confident in myself this way rather than playing with USB drives. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gjb69 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Does anyone know if the new update is available via bluetooth or do you have to plug in to download it. I have tried to update it via my hotspot but it wants it done via a usb stick. Any ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 It is either via USB or via the onboard modem in the car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveG1975 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Will the sync update and f10 map update work via the built in modem if so is quicker to do that way or by the usb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done mate 🙂 cheers Steve Sorry to hijack this but I have the exact same issue as you and cannot find anybody else in the Kuga forum who has the same issue. i am missing files from the download the same ones as you. Have you got the direct download link please? I assume it will still work on a 2019 Kuga as well as it is just a map update. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what I do I can't get the log xml file after install even though I used the interrogator app. Heres another weird one, my software shows version 3.4 sync 3 and version 10 maps, but when I scan for updates it starts to download a tar file. Getting fed up of speaking to the have a nice day angel gatekeepers at Ford, could really do with talking to someone who knows more about cars than ironing 🙂 I’ve just had the dreaded ERRO1 code with the maps update😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have to rename it to remove the numbers between BK and TAR. After that you could edit the autoinstall file to include the license file. Make it item 1 in the first section of the install.
