FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
- Q – “My screen is dead / black and I get NO audio - will this product fix my issue?”
- A – In most cases, yes. Some vehicles are prone to the APIM failing causing a blank screen. If you have a black screen and no audio, this will likely fix the issue.
- 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 3"
- 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. Contact us for replacement information.
- 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. Contact us for replacement information.
- 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.

Sync module replacement
Very courteous and prompt

Very very happy!!!
Note to any readers lol this is a legit review I know we have skeptics out there. I myself was very very happy with the purchase. It worked completely as advertised! Easy installation! It actually performs far better than the one I had even though they are both OEM Equipment. Weighed my options for other options and this was BY FAR the best value!!! Especially with the 1 year warranty which completely sold me along with the fact it came ready to go! I talked about this and the experience to several people so well done 4D Tech!!!!

Sync 3 APIM
Wow is all I can say. I don't think I have every had a company communicate like these guys. I was going to call prior to buying but noticed they were not open yet and emailed instead. I had a response in less than 5 minutes. Ordered shortly after and it was programmed and I had a tracking number in less than two hours. Installed on Saturday and everything worked perfect but the look was different and I emailed asking if it was something with the module or the latest update. I had a reply (on Saturday) within an hour confirming that the change is related to the latest software update. Recommend 100%

Top Notch Service
I bought a used 2019 F-150 without realizing the radio system was a basic Sync 3. No navigation , no hd radio and no satellite. Ford wanted $3500 plus programing to upgrade to a proper system.. I happened upon 4Dtech. I e-mailed a few question off hours and had response in one hour. Brad answered everything. I bought the Navigation/HDRadio/Satellite Radio upgrades. They arrived well packed Christmas Eve. Installation was 45 minutes total. The Navigation/HD radio worked instantly. A small glitch with the Satellite Radio. Monday morning I had a response back from Brad. I received a programmer in the mail quickly, plugged it in and 5 minutes later Sirius was on the system. Thank you 4Dtech. Happy New Year

Sync Module
Would absolutely recommend buying this module. They come preprogrammed and take about 10 minutes to replace. Ford charges an exorbitant amount to program and replace these modules. Would definitely buy from 4D again

Ford Sync 3 Module
Never commented before, even on amazon, but wanted to give a shout-out to these guys. Lost my radio a couple weeks back. Black screen. Was told by my local shop that the part needed was unavailable. Went to another dealer to order an aftermarket - also unavailable. Ten minutes of digging on the web, plus ten minutes of install time, and I'm back up and running. Fixed my problem instantly. Thank you again!
