[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1492534, member: 35543"] Let me start out by stating that one of 2 things is occurring: 1. The dealer is misdiagnosing the issue 2. An bluetooth or wired device, USB drive, or aftermarket component is corrupting the APIM There is no way you've had 3 truly defective APIMs in a row; something else is going on. Have you verified that all of your devices are compatible with your Sync version? When the issue occurs, is there a common device that's connected? Have you changed anything within the APIM besides adding the heated/cooled seat option? As far as programming, a new APIM requires the "Module Replacement" programming path to be performed. This provisions the new module for programming and essentially wipes out all user settings, devices, and any modifications that were made. Unlike IDS module programming, there is no option to inhale the data out of the original module; programming is performed by downloading the software from PTS on to a USB drive and then inserting the USB drive into the truck's USB hub. What does the RO state that the dealer did? If you DM me your VIN I can see what the dealer billed to Ford with any associated comments. [/QUOTE]
