This maps update consists of a Navigation Voice Guidance Package and the F7 maps themselves.Downloads are quite big (around 22 GB) and you need at least one extFat-formatted USB stick with sufficient space ( 32+ GB recommended) – better use 2 usb drives for making installation process easier and more reliable. If your version is below 3.0 (like 2.0 or 2.2), please update in advance. The source packages are original Ford installation archives and can be installed via a custom installation skript. This guide will not enable navigation on SYNC 3 devices that don’t have it activated, there is simply not enough space available for installation.I’m explaining updating SYNC 3 V2.3 and V3.0 maps as these are the current versions. I have a 2019 Expedition XLT EL with Sync 3 and Navigation and am finding that when I enter a destination some do not resolve so am thinking my navigation maps need an update Where do you find map updates and is there a charge for it ThanksNavigation Maps Version F7 (2017, Development Test Edition)If you are not familiar with updating your vehicle, please don’t attempt to do so.
Installation scriptAs we can’t install those archives as they are we need to write a little installation routine and save it to a file called “autoinstall.lst” in the root directory of our USB drive.For Drive 1 the content of autoinstall.lst might look like this: Open1 = SyncMyRide\JR3T-14G424-BC_110777.tar.gzFor Drive 2 we create an autoinstall.lst like this: You can create this content as a plain text file called autoinstall.txt and rename it to autoinstall.lst when finished.The final structure of your USB drives should look like this: Structure of usb drive 1 for F7 (2017) navigation maps installation for SYNC 3 Structure of usb drive 2 for F7 (2017) navigation maps installation for SYNC 3Notice there is a file called DONTINDX.MSA in the thumb drive’s main directory. Actually we could name this directory whatever we like but let’s stick to established habits. USB Drive 2 – 8 GB or more: Navigation Voice GuidanceThe downloaded archives (do not extract the compressed tar files, just move or copy them!) go into directory SyncMyRide which needs to be created in the root directory of our (yet blank) USB thumb drives.
Double check that the screen is completely off (not even the little background light of a “black” but switched on screen is noticeable) open driver’s door so SYNC 3 shuts down. Don’t pull the USB drive before the screen tells you to do so!Each time the screen tells you installation is finished pull usb and cycle ignition like this:
It’s unlikely you are going to brick your APIM module (SYNC 3) but the packages won’t install.This list shows some common errors and (hopefully) how to fix them.In general, first attempt to perform a SYNC 3 Master Reset (see manual / Settings -> General). 🙂 Common Errors / Trouble ShootingUnfortunately chances are high you are going to run into installation issues because you did something wrong or your setup is somehow incompatible. Success? 🙂Did it work for you? Thanks for considering a Donation. if applicable, wait for reset routines to finishKeep your engine running when installing to avoid battery drainage and auto shut off.So first install USB drive with maps and part reference file and if that succeeds continue with the second USB drive containing the voice guidance package.After installation the maps might need some minutes to reinitialize (like when updating SYNC 3). I know you are curious if it worked! 😉 )
If you have a NAV-enabled EU SYNC 3 and still experience this error you probably mixed up installation order. For example you will not be able to install EU maps on a North American SYNC 3 without hardware modification/swap. Wait for the SYNC3 to boot and the navigation maps to initiate (which may take several minutes!)Insufficient Storage Space (on SYNC 3 module)EU maps can only be installed on SYNC 3 modules that have sufficient storage space (64 GB). Close the door, set ignition on.
Ford Expedition Navigation Upgrade Packages Will
CHINA: vehicles WITH navigation (1.18 GB) If you can and would like to contribute your feedback is always welcome! 🙂 Covered CountriesAFAIK maps for these countries are included:To download latest SYNC 3 Apps for your EU spec Ford vehicle you can use one of these sites:Being on one of those websites simply enter the VIN of your vehicle and let the system check for updates.If for some reason the latest release won’t get offered for your EU car, you can use this link to download a typical EU release on your own risk (as always): Worldwide SYNC 3 3.0.3 (18025) Upgrade DownloadsIf you don’t have access to a service website and/or no local Ford dealer nearby you can use one of the following links to update your SYNC 3 to Version 3.0.3.These upgrade packages will only install on vehicles with an APIM module (SYNC 3 in this case) for the specified region/country! If that does not help, try another USB thumb drive with double capacity.Inconsistent file reference in at least one “OpenN = ” line of autoinstall.lstRename the file name of the package inside of SyncMyRide to match exactly the path and file name reference that is mentioned in the OpenN= line (with N being placeholder for a number) in autoinstall.lst ORFix the spelling of the installation package file name in the OpenN= line (with N being placeholder for a number) in autoinstall.lst to match exactly the actual installation package file name.This table is far from being perfect and of course there is no guarantee information is correct. It is not Autoinstall but AutoInstall.
