alexp999 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 What version are you on? I wonder if Ford have made F12 public yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsk Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Hi All, Anyone else seen this because it isn't showing up for me. I am one of those people who has been having problems with the update site accepting previous log file downloads. I am wondering if I still have a problem although it supposedly cleared a couple of weeks back. Mine left the factory with F11 installed so I assume this is F12.

deandeandean Posted May 28, 2023 Author Share Posted May 28, 2023 Maps will not update because I've previously used Cyanlabs to upgrade to Sync 3.4 and Ford think that I should only be on Sync 3.0. Will try again via Cyanlabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Don’t forget there are two different sets of maps. Sync 3.0 maps and Sync 3.4 maps. They are different packages even if the underlying maps are the same. They are always released at different times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deandeandean Posted May 29, 2023 Author Share Posted May 29, 2023 I'm just downloading a 2023 version of Sync 3.4 and F12 maps from Cyanlabs, official Ford route failed for me due to previous Cyanlab update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto to that, I'm still trying to upload the log file from the previous Sync 3.4 update, done using the USB method. Tried going down the wi-fi route afterwards but car says its up to date, which it is...you would think that something as simple as uploading a file wouldn't be that difficult...but this is Ford 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Ford website it is showing a map update for my vehicle. The file size is only 49KB. I downloaded this file and then plugged USB into car. Got a message on screen within 1 minute saying applying update. Update completed & a log file produced on USB which I uploaded to the Ford website with success followed by a green tick. Ford website still showing there is an map update when in fact it's not. It's the same 49KB file what ever that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I confirm what others have already said. Once again Ford have screwed up and the F12 map update does not work ! I have the Ford website telling me that there is a map update for my car, and the car itself saying that it is fully up to date with the Sync software and with F11 maps. Perhaps Ford just do this on purpose to give us all something to talk about 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Just means they haven't released it yet. The maps leak way before they are made public. They test on company cars, then a small sample before wider roll out to catch any major issues. The map voice packages for F12 have already been replaced once.

deandeandean Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 I can confirm that on my 2018 car I have successfully installed F12 maps and a 2023 version of Sync 3.4 via Cyanlabs and what's more it was all done whilst connected to a battery charger. I did not have to turn the engine on at all and the whole process took about ninety minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim.Smith Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Got my 2018 - Fiesta ST-Line upgraded, took about 1h 30 mins, updated to F11. Does anyone know the change log by any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 There are two branches of Sync 3. Sync 3.0 and 3.4 are maintained separately. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxty Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I’ve used CyanLabs to upgrade the missus’ 2018 Fiesta to 3.4 with no issues. Your mileage may vary though, of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
