What do I do if I get an LST_005 Error when updating my SYNC®* 3 Navigation map?

Before you start, find your SYNC 3 software version:

  1. Tap Settings on your vehicle's SYNC screen.

  3. Tap About or About SYNC.
  • If your vehicle has SYNC 3 v3.0, there should be seven (7) files in the SyncMyRide folder. If the JR3T-14G242-CF.TAR.GZ file is missing, you will see the LST_005 error when attempting to install the map update.
