iOS 12 MyFord Touch Messaging Doesn't Work
thrasher086 replied to thrasher086's topic in Audio, MyFord, Navigation & SYNC
Never mind. It began to work again the next day. Weird for it to display that message. -
Mine does put the seat to the last position when the ignition is pressed with remote start. You also mentioned in another post that you do not have the heated seats option for remote start. That is also present in mine. I suggest you head to the dealership for them to reprogram those modules.

I purchased a new iPhone and noticed after syncing with the MyFord Touch, contacts now show the pictures. Maybe it has to do with iOS 11 but it used to not move those over. When someone calls or when I go into the phone book, I can see the picture. If I get a text, it doesn't show the picture which is weird. Anyone else notice that contact pictures for iPhone's are now kind of working with MyFord Touch?

I checked. All I see is some plastic and rubber cases that goes over it which just adds more bulk. I am surprised Ford doesn't have parts for this. Would be nice to buy the shell for 20-25 bucks.

Over the 3 years of having the car, my keyfob is starting to show its age. Anyone know where I can just buy the plastic housing? I am hoping Ford would sell that and not just a new key.

I believe starting with 2015 vehicles, you get Sirius Travel link for 5 years too. -
Ford Navigation Showing Traffic flows
thrasher086 replied to usererror's topic in 2013-2016 Fusion Hybrid
SYNC Service provides turn by turn directions if you don't have navigation. It does not provide the traffic data if you have navigation that the OP is talking about. That comes only from Sirius. You are wrong as you didn't read what you copied and pasted. "SYNC Services offers audible travel information on demand." Keyword is audible. -
So after some digging, I found out 3.10 was released sometime at the end of last year. SyncMyRide shows 3.8 is the latest which I believe everyone will see that as I believe updates need to be done through the dealer. I decided to give it a shot and after 30 minutes of installing, I had 3.10 loaded. Everything went smoothly and it moved over my navigation favorites and radio presets. I just needed to reconnect my phone. I have a 2014 HyTi which was running 3.8 before the install. I found on the 2GFusions site a download to get the update. From my understanding, someone took the 3.10 files and put it in the 3.8 installer to get it working as at the end, it will say the 3.8 update completed. Rioachim provided the download which I am posting their link here if anyone is interested. As always, do at your own risk as this is not directly from Ford nor did I provide this install. Extract the .zip to a USB formatted FAT32. https://mega.nz/#!d8AVHaTa!E_I-rFibRyRIo...SM3e7Nbeo0 Version SYNC2 - V3.10 Install Source PTS ABOUT THE LATEST UPDATE The new software update for SYNC® with MyFord Touch® systems includes all the improvements from previous updates, plus additional changes to accommodate new and updated customer devices, such as: Hazard switch illuminates on Focus / Escape with ignition off and park lamps onNext Track / Previous Track controls from SYNC touchscreenSYNC Maintaining Repeat / Shuffle settings that were set on the device sideCompatibility updates for the latest phone and media devicesI played around with it and have not noticed any changes which is obvious from the change logs. I was hoping some bug fixes might have fixed the issue I have with activating Siri when listening to my iPod. If I send a text through Siri, it will not pause the song and once done, the right dashboard screen will be blank till you press mute for a second or skip to next song. This was not fixed. The Navigation option on the right dashboard is still buggy so to me it wasn't worth it but if you are having trouble with a new phone, then this might be for you.

Reading 3.10 always makes me read 3.1 so I hate the numbering system they use. Anyway, I would love to update but the site shows 3.8 is the latest. Is this really going to be a dealer only thing? I am hoping it fixes the issue with activating Siri when listening to your iPod. The right display on the dash will become blank for the title and artist till you either mute it quickly or wait for the next song to come on to refresh. Siri will never pause what you are listening to which SYNC should. Added a new thread so we don't post about 3.10 in the 3.8 one. http://fordfusionhybridforum.com/topic/11892-mft-version-310/

It's Sync Services. I received the email also. Only thing I used it for was sending destinations to the car from the phone which was nice. When is that AppLink coming to MyFord Touch? Still bummed about that never happening.......

BLIS stays on for a while on the right side.
thrasher086 replied to LEM's topic in Advanced Driver Assistance Technologies
Disconnecting the battery didn't fix anything which I had low hopes for anyway. I looked up some info about the BLIS system which states from their site: System limitationsThe Blind Spot Information and Cross Traffic Alert systems do have their limitations. Conditions such as severe weather or debris buildup on the sensor areas may limit vehicle detection. Other situations that may limit BLIS detection include: Certain maneuvers of other vehicles as they enter and exit the blind zone.Vehicles passing through the blind zone at very fast rates.Several vehicles forming a convoy and passing through the blind zone.I guess my situation would fall under the convoy of vehicles. Does anyone else have a similar experience and I am just looking too much into this? All I want the system to do is put the light on when anything is in the blind spot. Easy right? -

thrasher086 replied to LEM's topic in Advanced Driver Assistance Technologies
Maybe I am misunderstanding how the BLIS system works. The new module did fix the issue with the light staying on when no car is in my blind spot. I have a new problem which affects both sides now. When I am in traffic and my lane is finally moving, the BLIS system can end up missing a couple cars next to me that are driving slower. (I am going 10mph and they are around between barley moving and 5mph). I don't recall this being a problem on the working right side before the left was replaced. When I am driving on the highway with no traffic and a car passes by, both sensors will pick it up so this seems to only be in traffic when everyone is going slow. I would really hate to bring it in again because I am starting to feel defeated. I was thinking of disconnecting the negative terminal on the battery for a few minutes to see if that resets anything. -
Just giving an update that I renewed my Sirius plan. I always tried to get the promos on the chat option but after about 4 reps saying no, I decided to call to cancel. The phone call lasted 8 minutes and I was able to get Sirius Select for 6 months for 29.99 and continue the 50% off Traffic and Travelink for 18 bucks. Total was 52 something after the fees. I used to get 6 months for 24.99 but I had no luck in continuing that one.
