So does that mean Ford has the software and just hasn’t added my truck to the “OTA List” or that they haven’t yet released the update generally?
I don’t quite understand how I’m current in FDRS but seemingly far behind on Power up versions.
friendly reminder. That’s what I can’t figure out. I did all the available FDRS updates last week, then got Powerup 4.3.2 a couple days after, which seems like it’s way behind.
Could you give me a lookup:

It seems every time I do an FDRS update, I get one OTA update and then no more. Not sure what's going on.
Thanks!
During my last bout with FDRS I put together a video on how to do the full setup and connect to your vehicle in case anyone finds it helpful. It seems like they changed the account signup a bit since the instructions at the start of this thread:
How to Install FDRS (Ford Diagnostics) for your...
Same here. Just did all the updates yesterday to get myself current since OTA was "stuck" (again). Doesn't seem to affect the ability to do BlueCruise or anything else that I can detect.
I did a whole bunch of updates last night to un-eff my truck that seems to do 1 OTA and then get brain damage, and stopped after a long IPMA update.
This morning, I can't login, and the "Network Test" shows various servers coming up and down, and the Login server apparently on permanent...
Could you check VIN: 1FTFW1ED0MFB78424
Dealer got me moving again after no updates, I got one OTA, and then dead again. Seems to be how things work for my truck... FDRS to current, one OTA, and then no mas.
In 30 years of owning vehicles, I've never actually changed the wheels from factory. However, I may be picking up an offroad trailer that has 17" Enkei RPT1 Wheels with BFG K02 35" tires. I believe the previous owner had a Raptor so used these wheels on the truck so you could interchange them...
Same here. I’m actually quite impressed that it works perfectly with my mirrored hater blockers and only barks when I’m not actually looking at the road.
So I fixed the “stuck 1.7.1” updates (and recorded the painfully long YT video) myself, and a major question was whether I’d get OTA updates again without dealer intervention.
Well, starting last week my F-150 has been at the all you can eat update buffet, and got 2 power up’s and just got an...
Blues Cruise requires the 666A Option and the pre-installed harmonica, saxophone, and upright piano. You’ll have to wait to have the ghost of John Lee Hooker installed in your passenger seat, as due to Covid-related supernatural supply chain issues ghosts are backed up at the factory in the 5th...
FDRS asked me for both cables. It seemed (this is me guessing) like the USB to USB cable out the APIM into some kind of special mode, and then the Ethernet cable loaded some new software. Perhaps it was something like a boot loader where the APIM tried to do a boot over Ethernet but again that’s...
I posted this in another thread, but here’s a (painfully long) overview of how I did the “stuck OTA” TSB with the Mongoose and ultimately successfully got BC on a Job 1 truck. Feel free to share with your dealer.
Fixing the 2021 Ford F-150 Broken Over-the-air (OTA) Updates for BlueCruise
I went “all the way” and got BlueCruise (finally). There were probably another 6 updates after the TSB procedure, and BC was actually surprisingly anti-climatic. I didn’t get any special emails, FordPass notifications, or see the ability to activate BC in my ford “Connected Services” stuff in...
Is it a powerboost perchance? I ask since I've owned 4 electric/hybrid vehicles and had the battery die to the point that it wouldn't start on two (Chrysler Pacifica plug-in and Chevy Bolt pure EV).
In each case, got Christmas Tree dash, and failure indicators implying it was the transmission...
