Sync 3 update per Ford.com

[Dad's Car]

I have Ver. 3.4.22200, Ford.com says need to do Ver 3.4.23188. Downloaded file to prepare to do thumb drive update. Folder empty. Ford confirmed and said to wait or do WIFI.

That's strange that it was empty. I used the thumb drive method to update mine because the WiFi method never worked for me.

The file is corrupted. Same thing happened to me. Then, I was at the dealer last week and the same thing happened when they downloaded it.

Part of the update fixes a wifi glitch. So.........to try and do an update over wifi that has a "glitch" doesn't seem to be a good idea. Wait until you can use a thumbdrive.

That is what both myself and the dealer were trying to do. I have the wifi updates turned off.

Same here. Downloaded it. Go to open it like instructions say and it says nothing is there. Click on properties and it shows something is there.

Same problem here. Wi-Fi spins forever trying to find the update, so I downloaded from Ford for the USB method -- and WIndows says the zip file is empty (at over 800mb). My plan is to have the dealer do the update when I go in for the 23E09 recall in 4 weeks. (Yeah, Feb 13 is the soonest the dealer can do it.)

If I could send you the files I would.

My dealer refuses to do software updates without charging for labor to do it. SMH.

You could upload to onedrive or dropbox or whatever and share the link.

Probably because they're expending labor to do it that could be used on some other job instead? The nerve of them.
