What do I do if I receive an LST Extraction Error when updating SYNC®*?

If you use a flash drive to update your SYNC software, you may see an LST error message if the update was not properly extracted.

  • MAC OS users: You have to use the Unarchiver app to properly extract the files.
  • Windows OS users: You have to use Windows Explorer (File Explorer for Windows 10) to properly extract the files.

If you need additional assistance, contact your Lincoln Retailer.
