Sync Update Issue; Won't Update

[LionsTooth]

I think I have Sync with My Ford...correct?

I wanted to see if I could update the software....why not, right? I found the software update area on Ford.com...looks good so far.


So, I follow the instructions to format USB and then download the software. But I am missing a file in the download. My download doesn't have DONTINDX.MSA file.

I give it try anyway...I start the car plug in the USB....nothing....turn on the radio...nothing happens. No update commences.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Not sure which version you have or if you can update it. I'd double check it and maybe call Ford if you can't get it to work. https://owner.ford.com/support/how-...nd-updates/how-to-use-usb-to-update-sync.html

When I updated my Sync 3, it was mostly added apps and updated the maps for my GPS. I'm not sure what could be updated for the more basic sync.

Never got this to work...there's like 7 methods to try and none worked...so, moving on.
