    • Not suggesting that the BMS reset is related to the "ABS, AWD, Servicetrac lights" being ON, but still good practice.   With those warning lights and no fault codes showing on the code reader I would advise that you get it read at a place like Autozone or get an OBDII adapter to use with ForscanLite.   A bit of non-technical advice - you might get a little more interest in your posts if you used a little structure instead of the "wall of text" - some folks, myself included, find it hard to read and digest - of course that's not mandatory.
    • Thank you for the response, I will see what I can find on that today. Appreciate it. Owner's manual told me about letting it idle and driving it for 10 miles to reset the idle after changing the battery, but nothing about resetting the battery management system. Appreciate the help! 
    • Did you reset the Battery Monitoring System (BMS) after installing the new battery?   If not do a search for the procedure for that.   .
    • Edge SE 2010.  Just before the water pump failed there was a moment where the engine sounded like no oil was circulated so when I replaced the water pump and timing chains and also replaced the oil pump (Melling M390, rockauto).  I understand that it is very possible that the oil-not-circulated noise was due to coolant in the oil but at 230000Km and "being there" for repairs it made sense to change it anyways.  When I finished the repairs I wanted to prime the oil pump and crank the engine without having it started by using the fuel shutoff switch however it was too painful to disconnect it and I was eager to start the engine so I forgot about priming, turn the key and it started right away and a huge smile was seen! Here is my first question: is it possible to have air trapped somewhere? either in the pump or the passages? I drove the car around many times so it if could eliminate by itself it is done by now.   Nervous about the oil pressure I installed an aftermarket oil pressure gauge (2 in. LED Oil Pressure Gauge)  but I had to do some plumbing with a 1/4 male NPT bar or block with a 1/4 female NPT and a 1/8 female NPT; the ford oil pressure sensor is connected at the end of the bar or block in the 1/4 FNPT, a 9 inches high pressure hose is connected in the 1/8 FNPT and at the end the Titan sensor is connected.  See the 2 pictures.  Remember the smile above? Well there was none this time when I started the car....the oil pressure light in the dash is constantly lit and the gauge reads 0 psi; the engine is running fine but noisier than usual...giving the impression oil is lacking.  I get it that my custom setup is making both sensors to report no pressure.  Anyone ever installed an aftermarket oil gauge?  I also forgot to mention that the initial Ford oil pressure sensor failed and flooded the area around the alternator , and the alternator itself too and the engine stalled... I could not restart it until the next morning once the oil has dripped out.     
    • Hello, I have a question about the 20" factory wheels that are on my 2012 Ford Edge AWD. I just replaced the tires with a set of the factory Pirelli's that would have originally came on my Edge. I had the new set installed at Discount Tire. I understand that aluminum wheels will leak air, in the wintertime, but it's starting to warm up now, and it continues to happen. I haven't hit any curbs, maybe an occasion pothole, but the car hasn't been driven much the past 3 years. I found a set of American Racing Torq Thrust wheels that I would like to buy for it, but I don't know how to figure out the offset for the wheel, and the all-wheel drive suspension. My dad used to be my mechanic, and he would be able to help me out with these issues, unfortunately he passed away in 22, and I don't always trust these fly by night businesses to be honest with me, when I ask questions. Sorry, I know these are probably common-sense questions, but I need some advice.    Thank you, appreciate it! 
    • Hello,   I'm new to this forum and am hoping someone might be able to help me with an issue that I am experiencing on my 2012 Edge SEL AWD. 3.5 V6. My battery was three years old and wouldn't hold a charge. I bought a new battery, swapped it out, and I kept getting the power saving mode message, turn the key off. I did some internet research, and checked the alternator and starter, with a battery tester tool from Advance, that checks the complete charging system. The alternator and starter test fine. So, I checked the fuses, all the fuses appear to be okay, and not blown, but as soon as I checked the fuses, hooked the battery backup, and started the Edge up, now the ABS, AWD, Servicetrac lights are on, in the dash, with a quick flash of the check charging system. I tried plugging in the obd code reader that my dad has, and no codes are showing. Has anyone else came across this issue? I would like to try and fix it myself without paying a high price at the garage, but I'm at my wits end! In December I had new front brakes, and rotors, and struts put on it. After installation they did a full alignment. I put a new set of tires on it, and it drove like brand new no issues. Then one day, I started to have issues with the battery once it got cold and have had this issue ever since. It runs and drives perfectly fine, and stops as it should, no issues there. It's really puzzling to me!    Thank you in advance!  
    • Actually, I have cycled back to the flash drive USB method. I rip each audiobook CD as a single track, and give minimal ID tag information..... Book Title, Author and disc # of the set. Rip as 1 track, then add a name for each disc using an MP3Tag editor. Tracks and discs play in order now. A bit more tedious to copy to the flash drive, but much easier to use in the Edge. No cumbersome CD's to fidget with......
    • I just picked up the car today, Saturday.   What a difference!! So many little noises are gone. The car is so smooth, now.   I've attached a copy of what they did to the car in the event anyone has to go through this in the future.        
    • Check engine light came on, p0330.   Replaced both sensors and clears the code.   Next day the same code keeps coming back even after clearing it.   Engine seems to be running fine, no knocking that I can hear.   Any idea what to try to get this code clears for good?
