FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 

  • Q – “My screen is dead / black and I get NO audio - will this product fix my issue?”
  • A – Yes. The 2011-2014 Edge and Explorer (and others) are extremely prone to the APIM failing causing a blank screen. If you have a black screen and no audio, this will fix the issue - guaranteed.

  • Q – “My screen is dead / black but I can still hear and control the radio - will this product fix my issue?”
  • A – No. If the screen is black, but the radio plays and you can control the track / volume from the physical buttons, then the issue is likely the touchscreen has failed.

  • Q – “I can see what is being displayed on screen, but the screen does not respond to touch input - will this product fix my issue?”
  • A – No. The touchscreen has failed and requires replacement. See our "Replacement Touchscreen for SYNC 2"

  • Q – “I get the error "Entertainment Unavailable" and I cant access any music sources. Will replacing the APIM fix this error.”
  • A – No. This is an issue with the ACM (Audio Control Module). We do not sell these.

  • Q – “I no longer get audio from any of my sources (AM/FM/XM/CD) but the touchscreen still works. Will replacing the APIM fix this error.”
  • A – No. This is an issue with the ACM. We do not sell these.

  • Q – “Does this need to be programmed at the dealer?”
  • A – No. We pre-program the module using the VIN you provide at checkout. 

  • Q – “My backup camera does not work, will this fix it?”
  • A – No. Backup camera failures are common. If the backup camera is not working, it will need to be replaced. 

  • Q – “If I update my Sync system using the Ford SyncMyRide website, will that cause the navigation feature to be deactivated?”
  • A – No. A consumer installed software update will NOT affect this navigation upgrade.

  • Q – “Will this kit void my factory warranty?”
  • A – No. This kit will not void your vehicle warranty. Although Ford will not warranty the components in our kit, we do for one full year!

  • Q – “Will this kit affect my SiriusXM subscription?”
  • A – No. SiriusXM subscriptions are NOT affected by our kit - your SiriusXM ID will remain the same.

    Replacement Sync 2 Module

    Posted by Eric on Jul 21st 2020

    Had a black screen on my 2012 Explorer. Placed order early in the day. Shipped same day. Product came on time. Easy plug and play swap out. Everything works again as before. I believe there was even a slight upgrade in software which was a nice little surprise.

    Replacement sync 2 module for Ford Focus

    Posted by J. Kauffman on Jul 19th 2020

    Unit shipped the same day as ordered. Received in 2 days. Installed in about 30 minutes. YouTube video was useful. Radio immediately worked after installation. This module was the only solution I found to fixing the problem - I was told from multiple businesses that there are no radios made that fit this 2012 Ford Focus.

    Ford Edge APIM module

    Posted by Brian Kelly on Jul 15th 2020

    It was just what I was looking for, the only issue was that I had to pay for shipping twice. Which I wasn’t expecting. UPS made me pay $130 COD after I already paid for shipping When I bought the item. [4D Tech] Thank you for your purchase! When importing items from the USA to Canada, your country assesses import duties and fees as is stated on our website. You did not pay for shipping twice.

    It was so easy to replace the APIM module in my 2012 Ford after my screen went black. I followed your excellent video instruction and saved myself a bundle of money!

    Sync 2 Module/APIM replacement

    Posted by Quincy Perry on Jun 23rd 2020

    My 2011 Ford Explorer had a black screen so I called 4D Tech after reading about them on a thread. I ordered the APIM and replaced it myself (I'm a female). I was so excited that I was able to follow the video and replace it my self! My trim was different from the Edge in the video but other than that it was an easy fix. My Ford Touch is working again.

    Great product so far. Installed in less than an hour. After examine my faulty factory unit, this product actually seems better quality with a more adequate heat sink.
