marksandbothe Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Greetings With some help from this awesome Forum I was able to add Navigation and Climate to the right hand IPC of my 2016 Ford Edge. The last thing I'd like to do is to add Travel Link to the Sync 3 unit itself. I've downloaded AB data from local Edge's with travel but it still doesn't enable travel link. I've read that the travel link option is "burned" into the Sirius unit itself and since that ESN is associated with a vehicle that was shipped w/o navigation that there's no way it can be added after the fact even though I have navigation now. Can anyone confirm this? Have those of you who have updated their Sync 3 been able to get the Travel Link app added? Is there a way I can call Sirius and have them alter the vehicle's "profile" so it shows up as being eligible for travel link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrcold Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Off topic but didn't you have navigation on the right IPC to begin with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marksandbothe Posted October 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 No, I had to add it manually with Forscan after I did the APIM swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrcold Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Ah you did a swap. Makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmr061 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Travel Link is an additional paid service through Sirius. It won't work without paying for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Like jmr061 said, you have to call Sirus and subscribe. Forget exact price, guessing around $24/year but could be off. They are the only ones who can turn it on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candurin Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 You can call Sirius and tell them you have a factory replacement touch screen and would like to add travel link. You may not even have to explain anything, just ask that the service Is added to your account: It's the ACM (the part of the radio with the CD player) that houses your Sirius info, not the APIM. Many people have been able to have travel link and related services activated that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marksandbothe Posted October 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Thanks. Initially I couldn't get the Travel Link icon to show up under apps. I used the APM data from another VIN very similar to mine that I found online and that got the icon to appear. I definitely wasn't looking to get it without paying for it. I then called them and told them that it was a dealer installed navigation system and they activated it! Thanks again for everyone's help!

candurin Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 For anyone else... For the APIM module 7D0-01-02, the last series of 4 digits, make the "Y" an A and it will enable travel link (it will disable multi-contour seats, which older cars won't have anyway). 7D0-01-02 xxxx xxxx xYxx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
