hi im just bought a headlight switch mostly for it has fog light switch built in but it also has traction control button was curious if anyone has solutions to making them work in my 2015 ford edge sport. i thought my switch was for a 2015 as forscan should be able to make the changes but im not seeing it. kt4t13d061abw searching this on the laptop shows this is probably for 2019+ but when i bought it i was getting 2015+ on my phone.

Well, I finally decided to get my Edge in for service. I had a TPMS fail on it, and was getting nagged by the dealer that the oil change is due. I also had this outstanding recall, full thing was Safety Recall Notice 25S89/NHTSA Recall 25V572. On the write-up from the dealer, it said "Scanned for codes, found code C1001:01 in the APIM", and then a bunch of stuff for diagnosing and fixing it. Basically, they ended up replacing the rear camera. I had a couple of issues with the camera in the past. Once it went black on my, and after I got it home, I tried it again, and it was all pixelated. But then it was fine for a while. It did it another time or two, so that's why I decided to get it in to the dealer. I also had the TPMS replaced, and the struts on the engine hood replaced. They were both dead. Too much money, but at least it's all done. Of course due to the miles, a few other items were recommended (various fluid flushes, cabin filter, and decarb the engine. But I figured I gave 'em enough for one trip. Anyway, all is well, and just wanted to pass on the result of my rear camera recall experience. They had my Edge for 2 days and came to my house, picked it up, and brought it back to me. All is well in the world again!

Old thread, looong thread, GREAT thread! I picked up a low miles 2016 Sport AWD for my son to pair with my daughter's 2017 Sport AWD we got last year. The 2016 has the Adaptive Steering modes (Normal / Sport) greyed out in the display (can't select or modify). From reading this thread, I learned to count the lock-to-lock turns and it's 2 (same on the 2017), so I know the adaptive steering is working. I've surmised the steering wheel was probably replaced but not programmed properly. There's no steering wheel replacement on the CarFax though. I guess next step is to ask the dealer for the Oasis report and see if anything is on there. I doubt my son cares about having the steering modes, my daughter likes Normal on hers, I prefer the Sport mode. Anyway, if any of you are still around, I appreciate all your posts! -

You are a poet, and didn't know it!

I know this is old, but just seen it. The circle with the letters GPS and a line through it means SYNC has lost communication with the GPS satellites. Several possibilities include: 1. The car is in a area blocking the signal (garage, tunnel, dense tree canopies, etc. (Try again making certain your car has a clear view of the sky.) 2. There was a electronic crash or a corrupted software update. (Try a soft reset. Press and hold the Audio Power button and the Seek Right / Fast Forward button (→) at the exact same time. Hold down for 10 seconds until the screen goes completely black. Release the buttons and the system will reboot. It will show the Ford logo and reestablish a satellite handshake.) 3. The privacy settings in your car's menu may have accidentally toggled the GPS location permissions to "Off". (Try a software refresh. On your screen tap "Settings". Tap "FordPass Connect" and then "Connectivity Settings" {or just Connectivity if your SYNC doesn't have FordPass.} Locate the "Location" slider and turn it Of. Wait ait 10 seconds then turn it back On.) If after you follow the above fixes and the crossed-out GPS icon, it means there is probably a hardware issue. Couple of possibilities inclue: 1. The GPS antenna failed (or the blue coaxial wire has come loose under the dashboard.) 2. Or the APIM is failing.

1. Summer air is better because it makes your tires look sexier. 2. Winter air causes tire shrinkage on hot payment. 3. Winter air makes your tires look like blocks of ice. Summer air gives them that sleek, curvy look that makes all the other cars in the parking lot "jealous." 4. Winter air is way too heavy in the warm months, and creates massive rolling resistance. Premium summer air is lighter and molecularly "streamlined." It makes the tires roll noticeably smoother. It improves fuel economy by at least five miles per gallon. (Summer air literally pays for itself in gas savings.) 5. Summer air catches the light summer breezes and helps the tires to roll faster. Of course y'all know all this, just "preaching to the choir." .

Unfortunately, I can only hear the idle video but it sounds really nice. The drive by video it keeps telling me to sign into microsoft, but I don't do microsoft anymore. And, you are right. Local muffler shops, if you find a good one, are better priced than named local shops ( ie; Midas for one, ) you get a better price and a much better install. -
At one point Roush made some very nice tips that they sold separately. They were supposed to fit a mustang but my local shop said they would fit. My best advice would be to have a local muffler shop do the work. I think I paid $200-$300 for the work. Plus its all welded up and is very nice. It has the MRT mufflers and the xpipe was one that the local muffler shop made. Ask a shop you may be surprised on how affordable it may be.
