Have you done an update recently? Mine has been getting a pop up at initial start up but it has words, not just a blank pop up like that. Says something about updating, which it is not, and I have press "close".

Well I tried both a hard and soft reset with no luck. Guess it will be going to the dealer to fix that and replace one of the “sealed” batteries that is leaking.

Follow up with what they say or do. I was going suggest trying an update but really don't see how it would make a difference.

Just tap Settings, then General, scroll to the bottom and tap Master Reset.
If that still doesn’t fix it then you might need a new APIM so a trip to your dealer will be required.
Is your vehicle still under the 3/36K warranty? Do you have a Ford backed ESP?
If the answer is no and if you’re going to need a new APIM, depending on the dealer, expect a price in the range of $500.00 - $800.00 dollars

I recently did this update via wireless while the truck sat outside of my house. Seemed like it took forever. But it did finally update.

My truck does the same, a scan while connected to WiFi never shows any update available when in fact there is. I have read of others experiencing the same.
I have updated twice since 2019 and both times had to go online, input my VIN to check for updates, then download to a USB.
