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?”
  • A – No. SiriusXM subscriptions are NOT affected by our kit - your SiriusXM ID will remain the same.

    Amazing

    Posted by John Riedlinger on Mar 16th 2024

    It was quite the surprise when I got it installed and turned on my car and it was the latest sync in the Fords. I love the updated look and it looks my fitting to my car.

    Apim

    Posted by Raymond on Dec 19th 2023

    Dealer wanted 175.00 to diagnose and 1400.00. To replace I bought with tax around 850.00 with navigation. Was done with install in 1 hour 10 minutes hand down. I notice a lot of blogs trying all different resets reboot. Stop wasting your time and get your new apim here.

    Awesome!!!

    Posted by Christian Jax FL on Dec 2nd 2023

    Worth the money, and very easy to do yourself! Once the “reset” method doesnt work anymore, this is the only way to remedy the problem! Super easy, just take your time, watch all the DIY vids. Even came updated! Something I couldnt get my old APIM to do!

    APIM Module Replacement

    Posted by WC on Nov 22nd 2023

    Fixed my problem. Ford has a known problem with APIMs and will do nothing to fix it. Dealer wanted $1700 to replace, 4DTech go it to me for $799. Took all of 10 minutes to swap out. Been using it about 5 days now, no problems. Trying to ring it out for any problems, so far so good. Thanks 4DTech.
