I am about to order a sync3 for an upgrade to my ford ranger sync2 system, If i buy the sync3 apim and its for an auto version truck, and i am running a manual version truck, would forscan be able to give me the correct setting for my rear camera, as i'm being told that an auto sync3 will not activate the rear camera on my manual truck...

Use the asbuilt from a manual truck and write the complete apim. There are 2 changes to be made but quicker to import a manual asbuilt.

See if you can search Google Aus.

Search for MY17 or "MY18 Ranger manual VIN" and you will be greeted with an endless list of Aus dealers listing them.
