I like your "Giva Damn Switch".

Did you make it yourself or buy it somewhere?

Thank you.... I hobbled it together myself. I bought a cheap "useless switch" from Amazon, took it apart and made it useful. 😉

I would "assume" the Radio/Sync system but could be wrong.

The Sync in my Escape updated last week and it finally shows Android Auto turn-by-turn directions on the information display. But I'm not sure what else changed.

I just randomly decided to see if there was an update and there was. I can't tell if there is anything different so far.

I know we are derailing this thread...
This is great and I'm definitely stealing it.

New update seems to be made the head unit faster, less waiting between switching menus. No glitches so far with the backup camera.

Android Auto also works more reliably, less unplugging, remove device, and soft reset. Only been a week, so we shall see.

Hasn't fixed the brightness issue with the display, doesn't do anything pass the middle mark if the dash brightness is set to minimum or maximum.

Funny you said that. This afternoon when I plugged in my phone, Android Auto said it couldn't connect. Said to try a different input or different cable. I tried both, no joy. I rebooted the radio and then it accepted the phone. Maybe it wasn't set up completely after the update. Seemed to work fine since I did that.

First time plugging it in after the update, it required me to to setup Android Auto on the head unit. No other problems as of yet.

Prior, it was a pain to get Android Auto to work 100%, 75-80% of the time it would work. The remaining 20% was unplug, repair, restarting the head unit, etc.
