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.

    Replacement APIM Sync 3 with Navigation

    Posted by David McCoy on Aug 10th 2022

    Removal and replacement of APIM Sync 3 Module was easy after watching the video a few times. Started the unit up and synced to my phone and my Wife's phone, very easy. On screen navigation has been great. One un-mentioned benefit of the module is a crystal-clear image in the back-up camera.
    Thanks for the great service.

    Great product!!!

    Posted by Nick on May 27th 2022

    Bought this module to replace the factory APIM module that failed in my 2018 F250. It works perfectly and the price was great compared to the Ford dealership. Took about 10 minutes to pop the dash apart and install this module.

    Replacement APIM

    Posted by Ed Guyer on Mar 31st 2022

    I have to be honest, I was worried when I ordered this. I was going to have my dealer do this but they said they said the part would not be in stock for 2 months and when they did they would need the car for two days. They also were asking $1200.

    What I got from 4D was actually a more recent version than the one I had with the car. It was very easy to install and as their site indicated, took about 5 to 10 minutes to install.

    Removing the old one takes some patience as the trim can be a little finicky but there are some good YouTubes out there on getting it done.
