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.

  • 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.

  • 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?”

    Ford Sync 3 Module

    Posted by Jim on Nov 27th 2021

    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!

    Replacement APIM 2018 Mustang

    Posted by Brandon Moore on Nov 25th 2021

    My APIM died on my 2018 mustang and found this as I was looking for possible replacements. Super happy with it, came pre preprogrammed to my VIN so no trip to the dealer. Works flawlessly, and arrived super quick

    Sync 3 Module

    Posted by Mac on Sep 15th 2021

    Since this is a Ford product, it worked perfectly with my system! That said, 4D Tech was the best part about this upgrade as they are very helpful in making sure I got what I needed! I highly recommend both the product and the people!

    Apim replacement

    Posted by Troy Carpenter on Aug 27th 2021

    My 2016 expedition had huge delays on the screen. I decided to replace the APIM. Was a little concerned about doing it myself, but it was no problem when I carefully followed the instructions. It’s working great now!

    Plug and play as advertised. Saved me $300 bucks by not having it done by a dealer.
