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.

    THANK YOU!!!

    Posted by Monica on Jul 25th 2019

    As a Canadian, and as a woman... this process has been so easy. Such a relief that I could fix the APIM myself! Even with the high $$ exchange from American to Canadian, I still saved almost $700 from the quote the Ford dealer gave me. For anyone wondering. It was literally a 20 minute fix. A butter knife while unconventional is a great help when you run out of shins, have one on hand

    Easiest repair I've ever done. Thanks.

    Perfect

    Ordered this online and could not have been a better choice. The price was good, installation instructions were easy to follow, and the results were as expected. Definitely cheaper than the $1000 plus the dealership was going to charge.

    Works great and easy to install

    Posted by Andrea Kennedy on Jun 20th 2019

    Works great and easy to install. The screen on my 2011 Ford Explorer stopped working and I ordered this as a fix. Installation took less than 30 min. 4D Tech sent instructions for installation and they have an easy to follow video on YouTube. The new part works great!

    I’m so glad that I purchased this APIM. It saved me hundreds of dollars compared to what the Ford Dealer wanted to charge me. I was able to easily remove the old one and install the new one. And it worked right away! Just plug and play! Highly satisfied with this product...it’s great to have radio, navigation, and phone connectivity back!

    So far so good!

    Posted by John Bolton on May 30th 2019

    So far this module is working as it should. The videos helped although it would have been nice to see one on the Lincoln MKX. It was not as complicated as the Ford Edge. Took me about 15-20 minutes to install it. Hope it lasts!!
