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.

Phenomenal
I want you to know how phenomenal this experience was. I was a little (extremely, actually) worried about whether replacing this part would fix the problem or turn into some kind of expensive electronics nightmare. The online replacement video gave me enough confidence to give this project a shot without taking it to the shop or dealer. The part shipped immediately and the instructions were clear. And of course, replacing this part fixed our issues immediately. Thanks for the great service. This was probably the easiest car equipment repair I’ve ever done.

Sync 2 Module
The dealer told me it would cost $1400 to replace the APIM Module in my 2011 Ford Edge (just the diaganosis cost me $100). I ended up doing some research on replacemnt and came across 4D Tech. I probably could have done it cheaper, but I didn't want to hassle with programing it and "hoping" it woud work. 4D's Sync 2 module came as advertised. I bought the trim removal tools and watched the video. The whole process took me about 30 min and saved me about $900! I highly recommend this product if you have a balck synch screen.

Works as expected and faster than promised
This was really an easy process and the device was ordered on a Thursday night, shipped Friday and I got it on the following Tuesday and it was in the dash on Wednesday.
The only thing I had to do was re-pair my phone with Sync. The radio station presets were kept.
Installation took less than an hour and that was only because I took extra time to clean areas that I normally could not get to when the center dash was put together.
I recommended this to my step father who buys and sells used cars as a hobby. -
Navigation
So easy to install. Works great ! Thanks for such easy instruction video.

Pleasant surprise.
I was skeptical this APIM would plug and play. I provided my VIN # and 4D Tech programmed the replacement. It worked from first start and even my Sirius/XM transferred and my channel preselect buttons stayed set. Saved $600 by installing it myself.

Received on schedule, pre-programed as stated in the literature. Reviewed the video prior to install, was nearly identical and went smoothly. Am very delighted with the whole process. Would recommend.
