    Do you still have this fix for this? Having the same issue now when trying to update the map to the latest version.

    Won’t Sync

    Soft reset, press and hold both the center power button on the volume knob and the skip forward button until the screen goes black, then release and wait for it to reboot. I had to do this Saturday on my 2017 EL LTD as the wheel buttons were acting weird after upgrading Sync 3 to the latest...

    2016 Limited with 10 speaker Sony stereo...

    You can use 5x7 or 6x8 in the doors. Recommend using Crutchfield.com to find and buy the ones that will fit. Or at least check the fit then look to see if you can find them cheaper. If you are using the factory amp make sure to get high efficiency model speakers, IE 91db.

    $750 for positive battery cable... wtf?

    Switched to an Epson EcoTank last year and got rid of the power hungry laser printer. Reservoir that is refillable and the ink bottles are pretty cheap.

    Interesting take on auto industry woes/falling new sales

    The wife and I can afford the payments on a new Expedition, however when I upgraded from my Explorer last year to an Expy we decided to get a 2 year old (2017 EL Limited) one that was in good condition for less than half the price of a new one. 70K is just not a wise investment for a...

    2019 XLT 9 Speaker Stereo Upgrade - Help Please

    They don't have a model for the 2018/19 listed yet but JL Audio makes the Stealthbox that fits in the same space that the factory sub would be. It does require some cutting of the trim panel. It might possibly fit in the 4th gen, give them a call and ask...

    sync update

    That happened to my with my 2013 Explorer, did one update through the Ford website and marked the Sync update as complete. Then I could never download a new version when they released one, always said I had the latest version. Ford's tech support never could figure it out. I ended up creating a...

    2017 EL Limited - Radio Preset Buttons Sticking

    Anyone ever experience issue with the radio preset buttons sticking on the dash when you push them? Button 1 and 3 both press down then will not come back up which causes the steering wheel buttons to stop working. I have to use my pocket knife to make them pop back out. Was wondering if...

    Problems with the 3.5L Turbo Engines 2015-17???

    2017 Limited EL 4x2 that was a rental, got it with 49K now at 62K. Only issue was when I had the dealer tune it up, replace the spark plugs, and decarbon he didn't do a good job blowing everything out so it was throwing a check engine on one cylinder. Just ran her hard for a while and rock solid...

    Mirror spiders... every day, a new frikkin spider

    Aww, such a cutie... NOT! Spray the ground where you park, and not just right around the spot make sure to include a good 10-15ft around it to keep them from getting close. The Bayer or Ortho home defense stuff works pretty well.
