Kyle Armstrong Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I am lookin to update my zetec s' radio system! But I can't do it myself at home because it doesn't have a USB port. I was wondering what are my options? Will my ford garage be able to update it for me? Has anyone else got the same problem? Any suggestions would be great! Cheers, Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Only a Ford dealer can do it for you I'm afraid. Will most likely try and charge you if the vehicle is 12+ months old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSussex Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Having had software updates on various pieces of electronics (tomtom Satnav and Hitachi PVR) that turned out to be downgrades, I am very careful now to make sure any upgrade has been proved to be an improvement on the software already installed. Before you get your radio updated check out the advantages and disadvantages of the update. As I say, If it ain't broke don't fix it!

MikePaine Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Na mate unfortunately not. As far as I knew the only way to update it was via ids. I didn't know you could do it with a USB stick? Just to clarify you are trying to update radio yea? Finally no I don't have keyless start :(. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follow my guide but instead of turning key to position 2 you press the engine start button (without foot on clutch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
