What version of the sync tool are you using? Is it the latest?

Yes, the lastest, all the enviroment are a fresh install, all last version. Now seems to be working, I have try to assign the user used to sync AD in Azure Sync Tool memeber of Administrator… but is strange… because the tool in the descprion of this user say that is not important that is member fo Administrator.

Try disable and enable password sync

$adConnector = “”
$aadConnector = “”

Set-ADSyncAADPasswordSyncConfiguration -SourceConnector $adConnector -TargetConnector $aadConnector -Enable $false
Set-ADSyncAADPasswordSyncConfiguration -SourceConnector $adConnector -TargetConnector $aadConnector -Enable $true

Worked like charm after disable and enable PowerShell commands. Also, the AD account to sync on premise needs to be member of the administrator.

I had to make sure the AD Sync user used was being synced with Azure AD also. It has to be in the correct OU.
