I got it working.  I also had to change 726-45-01 to xxx-x3xx-xxx.  I ended up using power from the 12 volt outlet in the car.  The cupholder lights come on when the headlights come on.  However, they say on if you then turn the headlights off until you shut off the car.  I also can't dim them or turn them off using the sync screen.  Can you control your cupholder lights from the screen?

Thanks for the tip enigma-2

From pg. 319 of the 2024 owners manual. "It is recommended that the two front tires or two rear tires generally be replaced as a pair if the worn tires still have usable depth. To avoid potential All-Wheel Drive (AWD) malfunction or (AWD) system damage, it is recommended to replace all four tires rather than mixing significantly worn tires with new tires."

Thread is a little old. My car went from 18's to 20's. 20's look better (a lot better), but, the ride is much harsher.  (Less sidewall.)    I use the quietest and smoothest I could find (actually Michelin's are quieter and smoother, but they only last 20-25k before they get loud and rough), so I now use Pirelli Scorpion's.   So if you move up to 20's, get rims from a reputable dealer and the best tires you can find. Cheap tires are horrible. (From experience. One week and took the back and uograded.)

Apologies for the length. But be VERY careful as to putting aftermarket wheels on your car. Your life, and your families, depend on it.     Low-cost, cast-aluminum replica wheels from China frequently face reports of catastrophic failures, including cracking, shattering, or breaking into pieces upon hitting potholes or normal driving stress. These counterfeit wheels often lack proper safety certifications (like TUV), using cheaper, weaker materials and casting methods disguised as high-quality "forged" products.  Reddit +4 Key Safety Risks and Findings: Failure Modes: Unlike reputable wheels that may bend, poor-quality cast wheels often fail completely, leading to immediate loss of control. Counterfeiting Concerns: Thousands of counterfeit wheels made in China are in circulation, sometimes failing at speeds as low as 50 km/h, notes News.com.au. Testing Failures: Imitation wheels often shatter on initial testing and fail to meet safety standards that genuine, high-quality wheels pass, according to www.drive.com.au. Where They Are Sold: Many of these products are sold on platforms like Alibaba or eBay.  Reddit +5 What to Watch Out For: Price: If a wheel is significantly cheaper than standard market prices, it likely indicates lower quality materials and production, say the Detroit Wheel and Tire blog. Lack of Proper Certification: Authentic wheels are tested for impact resistance. Reputation: Unscrupulous sellers often misrepresent cheap cast wheels as "forged," say Reddit users.  Reddit +4 It is recommended to purchase wheels from reputable manufacturers with established safety testing, rather than unknown or cheap alternatives, say Reddit users.  Reddit     Are forged alibaba wheels safe? : r/GolfGTI - Reddit Mar 3, 2024 — Expanded answer: Cheap wheels tend to have defects in them that compromise the integrity of the wheel's strength.

Thanks for the reply.  He is what I have done so far and they still won't light.   1.  Cut off the end of a 12 volt cigarette lighter plug to use as power and ground.  Ran those two wires to the cupholder.  I just did this to test, will get a permanent solution if I get this to work 2.  installed a new pin in slot 13 of the bcm harness c2280G and ran wire to cupholder 3.  changed bcm 726-65-1-01 to 0001-0100-0095 4.  changed apim  7DO-01-02 to 000-D438-381E, I didn't change the 3 in the last series to a 2 because my cup holder is only ice blue   I don't understand what you mean by SlaveExists_ALM_Cfg   Is there anything I am missing because the light on the cupholder still won't come on?

SE/SEL are different, has nothing to do with setting. So  if anyone has a passenger side taillights that is from a 2019-2024 edge please contact me. I have a 2024 and need one in really good shape, mine has crack letting in condensation.  

I have a 2016 Edge Titanium, FWD, 2L ECOBoost, 62K Kilometers no problems so far at all. Leased the car new and bought the lease at the end. I'm aware of the coolant intrusion issue.   The interior of both rear doors by the bottom started rusting. That's a bad doors design because the way the doors are made it creates a place for dirt to accumulate in that area and start rusting.   Plan to go to a body shop soon. The two front doors in the same area are clean but depending on how they will fix the rear doors I may ask to do the same on the front doors.   Any idea how they can fix the problem?   Thanks
