    new navigation update NA 1 20

    I got around to downloading and installing the update in my 19 Explorer. Took about an hour and 20 minutes. Have NA 2 20. Sync 3.0 build 20204. Map shows some new roads in my area so guess all is good. Just have to remember to put the lic download file in the SyncMyDrive folder.

    Appears that they are just replacing the retaining clips with new ones and applying some glue to help hold the cover on. My cover on my 19 seems tight.

    I have 19 Explorer that had 1-18 maps. I downloaded the 1-19 updates and copied them to a formatted USB. Tried to install and got the 005 error as the license file missing. Gave up on that setup after a few tries and started all over again on my laptop. Formatted another USB and downloaded the...

    Electrical problem with 2019 Explorer

    Update: It was the battery. Took it in yesterday; dealer checked battery and it was ok they said. They let it set for couple of hours and noticed a huge voltage drop. So now have a new battery. That is what I thought from the start. 14 months on old battery.

    Electrical problem with 2019 Explorer

    That is what I thought and told the service advisor. Will let them get into it Tuesday and report back. I had a 56 Chev in the day that had a bad battery with bad cell. As soon as you jumped it the battery tested good. Finally I just bought a new battery and problem went away.

    Something in the shutdown to save the battery system prevented me from starting the car today. Engine would not turn over or even click. Had wrench symbol on the driver display and message on center display about the battery saver system. Got jumper cables and after a minute or so the engine...

    New v3.0 Build Available

    Just updated my 17 Escape and 19 Explorer using USB. Update took a minute or so to actually start the update and then maybe 5 minutes to finish. Did turn off the auto update feature in the car to use the USB. Not sure if that is required.

    2018 Platinum starts without key

    On my 19 Limited, if I start the car with the fob in my pocket and then exit the car with motor running, I get a chime and a message pops up on the left display saying "No fob detected". If you don't get this message then I would think there is another fob still in the car somewhere.

    phone mount for 2019 Limited

    I actually got it to fit the 19 Explorer. You just have to use a bit more force to get the clip to catch on the console edge. With ProClip not listing it for 19 Explorer with factory navg; I figured something had changed on the car. Wrong, ProClip just doesn't handle the model anymore.

    2016 Limited or Sport

    I have a Limited. I like the V-6 engine w/o turbo's. I don't tow much so didn't want the extra maint. of the turbos. Straight V-6 I figured would be less hassle in long run. But if you are towing, then the extra power may be what you need. When we bought our's the sport didn't have the interior...
