I tried to update the firmware in my Mustang I. Followed the instructions, but the update failed. Tried many more times, doing as instructed. The progress bar got further each time, but it always failed. So, I download the update from the web and tried to do it that way. Same thing.

Now, my "Save" button is blinking whenever I turn the amp on. And, it won't give any sound from the speaker. I've tried everything I can think of, nothing changes.

Any ideas?

reset the amp back to factory settings, then try again.

Tried resetting the amp, according to instructions (Turn amp off. Press and hold "Exit" button while turning amp on. Hold until Exit button is no longer illuminated."

Doesn't work. Exit button does not illuminate no matter how long I hold it, and Save button continues to blink.

Hey Ardick,

Does your computer have USB 2.0? We've seen a few users with USB 1.1 ports that have had issues with updating firmware. Also, are you connected through a USB hub? You may want to try another USB port on the computer.

Doesn't work. I do have USB 2. It was plugged into a powered hub, but now it's plugged directly into the computer. Same problem, whether I try to download upgrade firmware from Fuse, or from the web. It gets about half way and says it's a error, try again. "Save" button is on whenever the amp is turned on (even with USB removed) and amp won't play.

Hey Ardick,

Until you're able to successfully update the firmware, you will not be able to use the amp at all. Do you have access to another computer?

Yes, I do have access to another computer. (Both mine, and the other one are Mac osx 10.6) What should I do?

You may want to try installing Fender FUSE on another computer and attempting the firmware update again.

I had the same issue. Turns out fuse wasnt the latest version. I updated fuse then it worked.

Success!!!
I used another Mac (same model as mine, but with less RAM), installed Fuse, and updated the Mustang I in two shakes. Slick as anything.
I couldn't believe your suggestion would work, but having nothing else to go on, I did it and am glad I did.
Sorry for the delay in reporting back.
