How much did you pay for your apim? My CarPlay and other glitches happen like losing calls from possibly over heating after driving 3 hours? Touch screen response time varies depending if it’s freezing up Any suggestions? I have a 2017 platinum fusion

I paid $200 for it back 4 years ago. It was programmed to my vehicle vin too by the guy I bought it from on eBay. I am not certain if he still selling them though.

Really interested on how you got your range and stuff being displayed on the right side of your cluster? Is that a modification? Mine doesn’t show that

GREAT informational vid. F#$%*&g stealerships! They took $250 to diagnose; after having it overnight so the unit could 'discharge', said that they couldn't access the module to reprogram/flash it and they want $1,900 for a new NON-Nav unit! >:(

does the apim have any affect on the hybrid function? I upgraded mine and hybrid doest engage as it did before, not nearly as much.

It should not. It does not control it, it only displays information.

It was minor - the Bluetooth would not remember the phone I paired with it - so I had to pair every time I wanted to use my phone. I live in NY where there is daylight savings time and during that time the clock would not retain the time. I had to set up forward an hour each time I restarted the car. Other than that, everything else worked.

Well the video editing certainly is wonky, but I was able to replace the apim module in my fusion based on this so thanks!

In your descripion for the video you should if said why you replaced it. My backup camera is glitching out and I replaced it but same issue its completely random its like a weird digital noise, and it looks like the camera video is being received by a tv channel on an old tv, it loses vertical lock and starts scrolling up, or has weird colors and sometimes it glitches out so bad it ends up saying camera not available. So im guessing it must be this module.

Hi Sam If the problem is with Sync 3 software and not hardware, then can I reload the software on my current APIM module to solve the slow response? Why buy a used or new APIM module. Will appreciate a reply. Your video is great for learning where the APIM is located and how to remove trims safely. Thanks to you and Josh.

I am not sure if the software will fix some of the issues. You can certainly try to reprogram to see if it fixes it if you have the hardware to do so. I found en economical solution replacing the hardware is all. It was easy and reasonable in cost.

Quick question so my sync 3 recently died on me black screen and everything I got a 2018 Ecoboost mustang. My question is all I would need is just get a new module like you did in this video right or would I need to get new wires also ?

Not 100% certain without diagnosing but it sounds like just the module.

Thank for this very good explanation. Just a small question, why you did not choose an APIM which includes Navigation?

Really great that you covered the trim removal and what you encountered. Also great that you showed step by step what to disconnect. Also great that you are working with your son. It will be cool to see what the future holds and if he starts doing more of the fixing himself. Great project!

I also got a 2017 fusion. The climate control and the backup camera doesn't work after a jump start. Send 100$ at the dealership to diagnose. The dealership said need 600 to book a new APIM and they didn't promise the problem will be fixed. I guess I will just buy a APIM on ebay and follow ur video to replace it by myself.

Did you end up doing this? did it fix your issue ( my backup camera glitches out randomely, its like a digital noise issues like you would see with old tv's that used an antanna. I replaced the backup camera but same issue so it has to be this apim module im assuming? Car is 5 years old now. Everything else seems to work fine like climate control screen and everything. Just backup camera randomely stops working correctly, sometimes not at all it will say camera not available if it glitches out enough. And then other days no issues at all.

I researched the costs online. They ranged from $800 to over $1200. I assume navigation adds to the cost. I did look to replace mine with a new unit. Just the unit itself is $799 from Ford. I choose to take my chances with a used unit. The guy I bought mine from stated it was used, but pulled from a new car that the owner wanted navigation added. So far the unit I added has been working flawlessly. I paid $199 for it and he programmed it with my car’s VIN. I included the link to where I purchased it from if you decide to go that route. Good luck
