SYNC Software Programming v4.0
GSB Overview: Information on Programming the SYNC Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) along with Recommended Computer Settings
NOTE: This information is not intended to replace or supersede any warranty, parts and service policy, Work Shop Manual (WSM) procedures or technical training or wiring diagram information.

 

The SYNC accessory protocol interface module (APIM) may require programming to add system enhancements/upgrades, improve system reliability and/or address consumer issues. The following information is intended to help determine when programming necessary and address common programming issues using current Professional Technician Society (PTS)/integrated diagnostic system (IDS) programming methods.

 

When is APIM programming necessary?

  • APIM replacement – programming is required with any APIM replacement (when WSM procedures direct to replace).
  • Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) – updates to resolve SYNC performance issues should only be performed when directed by a TSB.
  • Upgrades – occasional upgrades such as 911/VHR, Traffic, Directions, and Information (TDI) will become available at customer request and expense.

 

APIM Programming Tips using PTS/IDS programming

  • Refer to WSM Section 418-01 or 415-00 for programming steps.
  • It’s recommended to install a battery charger set on low when performing programming steps.
  • A hard wired internet connection is strongly recommended when programming.
  • Make sure the proper SYNC USB 2.0 A-Male to A-Male cable and SYNC USB 2.0 A-Female to Mini B Female 5-pin adaptor is being used.
  • Internet Explorer (IE) version 9 or 11 is required for proper SYNC programming.
  • If no progress bar is present at the bottom of IE, click Maximize to make visible.
  • Confirm SYNC function by pressing the “Phone” button. If no SYNC function is present, the APIM will not program; follow normal WSM diagnostics.

Note: If unable to complete programming because the operation stops or errors are received, IE Security settings may need to be configured. Follow the steps below to properly configure IE.
