I've recently purchased a Fiesta ST and the previous owner had no luck getting CarPlay or Android Auto to work.
The car was already on Sync 3 version 3.4.xx when I bought it but would not start up Android Auto when I connected my Pixel 10
I tried troubleshooting with the interrogator log utility as SandMan on cyanlabs forums suggested but after inserting the USB drive and waiting for over 5 minutes, nothing happened and no log was written
also, while driving USB device not recognized error would pop up randomly even with nothing plugged into the USB hub in the center console
and after googling around I see there was an issue with directly upgrading to 3.4 and skipping 2.2. So I set up a USB stick with the 2.2 files and insert it into the USB hub, give it 15 minutes with the car on, but nothing happens, no loading screen pops up, all I get is the Updating System Software message and nothing else
A day later, while driving, a message pops up that says system has updated and I check and it says it is now on version 2.2
I try plugging in my phone and no response. I tried a new USB A to USB C cable. I tried ordering a another HC3Z-19A387-F USB hub from eBay. Neither worked
In fact, when I plug into the new hub, I immediately get the USB device not recognized error again
So at this point I am not sure what next to do. Should I just update it back up to 3.4 and hope that does something even though Android Auto should be working with 2.2?
Is there a bad connection somewhere?
Would replacing the APIM do anything?
Thanks in advance
