I recently replaced the a/c compressor with a well known brand. I didn't disturb any wiring except to hook up the provided wiring adapter from the new compressor to my oem plug. I've gotten some freon in it but no matter what I can't get the ac clutch to engage. I've swapped relays with no luck, all fuses are good, checked wiring continuity from the relay panel to the compressor and for power TO the relay panel and all are ok. What am I missing??? The ac worked great until I swapped the compressor and only did so because the old compressor started leaking oil from the rear cover and yes the bolts were as tight as could be but the leak continued. Any thoughts/ideas anyone? TIA

I had this happen to me. The first time it happened was immediately after an ABS event. The pedal would go almost fully to the floor, except it would build pressure and actually brake near the bottom of the travel. Felt almost like the master cylinder was bypassing until the very last minute. Took it to a local dealer, who first diagnosed it as a faulty brake booster. Which does not make sense at all. If the booster was failing, the brakes would be harder, and I would see the revs jump up from the vacuum leak, and I was getting none of that. I told them to test and check the HCU because a tech I was friends with said it sounded familiar. In the end, what was happening was that the ABS HCU bypass valve was stuck open, allowing pressure to flow into and fill the accumulator before the system gained any pressure. When they replaced mine, they didn't bleed it properly, so the system was still full of air, making it seem like the problem was still there. They forced me into giving them authorization to change out the booster, too, which would mean they'd have to bleed the system twice. Haven't had any issues since -
Oh boy. That's from 6 years ago! As I remember, it is not about HID vs Halogen, this is to allow changing from stock DRL settings. Check this, though it is for a Fusion, most ABD is similar to the 2015-2018 Edge. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yax6zfhZYj2joBczEeruqKh9X5Qhee3C0ngilqwTA7E/pubhtml?gid=0&single=true

Do you know where the 7F comes from? Ive pulled up a few different as built data sheets for 15-18 Edges w/ factory Hid's and the value where you say change to 7F is 11

So i had placed the post in the wrong category... My 2013 rear wiper has stopped working. I have replaced the wiper control arm on the steering column, I have replaced the wiper motor, i have tested the cable from the headliner to the wiper motor for continuity, I have checked all the fuses under the hood as well as the relays. I still don't know why my rear wiper is not working. When i had the rear wiper motor changed my mechanic said i don't have control voltage going to the motor. Any suggestions?

I see that this post is from 7 years ago but I want to share my similar situation. I have a 2012 Ford edge limited 3.5 v6. I had a leak in the high pressure power steering line from Gear to pump. Very small just a couple drips a week. I bought a duralast line to replace it from auto zone. Ever since the line was replaced my pump has whined. 3 mechanics and a dealership later no one could figure out why. It was bled multiple times. No air bubbles, no foaming, power steering worked totally fine and no leaks but the whine wouldn't stop. I saw this post and took a chance. Bought a motorcraft line and replaced the line again. The whine totally went away. Something with the aftermarket line must be different (length, inner diameter, etc) to cause the pump to caviate. So if anyone ever has a similar issue, buy motorcraft parts and don't trust aftermarket

How do you disable start/stop on a 2023 Edge? Auto Start/Stop Disabled PSCM 730-03-01 xxxx xxxx 00-- HVAC 733-01-05 xxxx x0xx xx-- This does not bring results. That is, it works, but a message pops up

I just bought a 2016 yesterday... it is in great shape and I love the car... except the painted wheels. It really cheapens the look. I had a 2021 Corsair that also had painted wheels. It just loses something. I'm looking to see what you came up with for wheels.

Sheesh, there must be something in the air. Or there is a big jinx going on somewhere. I drove my Edge for the first time in a few days, and I'll be danged if the rear-view camera didn't give me problems. Backing out of a parking space, it was kinda black and skewed, and wavery image. I was like, no way. When I got home, I tried it again before I went in the house, and the image was mostly good, but kinda pixelated and distorted. Man, I couldn't believe it. I'll keep an eye on it and see what happens next time I drive it. I don't drive it often, but when I do, I expect things to work. I also have the extended warranty, but since this is under recall,, with no fix, warranty is N/A. This time.
