2016 Ford And Lincoln Vehicles Equipped With SYNC 3 – Sirius Channel Guide Inoperative
Some 2016 Focus, C-Max, Fiesta, Expedition, and Navigator vehicles equipped with SYNC 3 may exhibit a condition in which the Sirius satellite channel guide category buttons may not respond when selected and a “Loading…” message is displayed continuously.
To correct this condition reprogram the Audio Control Module (ACM) with latest calibration using IDS release 101.05 or higher.
Make sure you are connected to the internet when entering module programming to obtain the latest updates.
Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com.
The SYNC version can be determined via OASIS.
Service Information & Reprogramming
Software necessary to program electronic modules to the latest calibration level, perform module initialization (PATS), and set Programmable Parameters on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.
Ford Module Programming (FMP) is a software application that allows subscribers to program electronic modules on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. It can be used for:
- Reprogramming emission-related (OBDII) modules on some vehicles manufactured in 1995 and all vehicles manufactured from 1996 to the present
- Reprogramming or reconfiguring non-emission-related modules on many vehicles (UBP and MS-CAN not supported)
In addition, module initialization (PATS) functions such as Keycode Erase/Reprogram and PCM Parameter Reset can be done using this application.
J2534 Device 
using Ford Module Programming (FMP) can Reprogram and Configure most Modules.
