What MFD SD card are you using, what version and what maps ?

Are you using Sync1 or Sync2 ?

You have the Ford MFD sat nav system. This is a Ford system thas is developed by Ford in cojunction with Bosch/Blaupunkt. The sat nav functionality is fully integrated into the FCDIM (display) which communicates with the ACM (Audio Control Module) and IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster).

This system can either be combined with the old Bluetooth/Voicecontrol system (which was also used in the Focus MK2.5) or the newer SYNC 1.0 / SYNC 1.1 system. SYNC 1.0 was introduced at 06/2012 so your car will definitely have the old Bluetooth/Voicecontrol system.

The Ford MFD sat nav system uses SD cards that have a version number that starts with a V.

The SD cards for the Ford MFD Satnav system can be identified by the number on the label of the SD-card:

V1 = 2011
V2 = 2012
V3 = 2013
V4 = 2014 (V4 contained an error and is replaced by V4.1)
V5 = 2015
V6 = 2016
V7 = 2017
V8 = 2018
V9 = 2019
V10 = 2020
V11 = 2021 (will be released in February/March)

 

If the 2011 (V1) is not recognised by the MFD system either the SD-card is defective or the integrated SD-card slot is defective. If the SD-card slot is defective the FCDIM needs to be replaced.
