  1. Thanks for that @Haz My first thoughts were excessive toe in caused the inside edge wear, but the Ford doc states inside edge wear is caused by toe out. Reading Tire Wear Patterns

  3. Rafeek, I just noticed the same thing on my new 2024 Edge ST. and I too have temporarily secured it with cable ties. My St does have the tow package and could you give me any additional information on where to get this part. Thanks so much

  4. Somewhat ironically, the Suspension System Specifications page is identical in both the 2017 Edge and 2016 Edge Workshop Manuals, with each bearing the 2016 model year Edge reference in its upper right corner, as shown on the below-attached PDF page... Good luck! 2016 Edge + 2017 Edge Workshop Manuals - Suspension System Specifications.pdf

  8. The part number is KT4Z-5811778-D. It is titled as "Deflector - Air." When I first got the car I noticed how the back bumper cover over the trailer hitch was loose. Also, someone I know was driving behind me and they said the bumper cover was flapping in the wind. Just ridiculous for a new car, so I ordered the part and the dealer put it on for me. They were shaking their head about it as well. This part does a good job of stabilizing the bottom of the bumper cover.

  9. I think I found an easier solution to this issue. I was able to slide a screw driver under the clip and rotate it a little to lift it up. I then slid a thick piece of felt under the end of the clip and dropped it back down. I purchased a pack of those round stick-on felt pads that go on the bottom of kitchen chair legs from the Dollar Tree. The one I used was the size of a nickel. The very annoying tick is completely gone!!!!:)

  10. On the F150 forums several people added these after they were built and apparently the only thing needed is a large open parking lot as the straight lines are used for calibration. I’ll see if I can find a post/thread about it

  11. Unfortunately it seems that most of the search results are either actually more expensive than the ET4Z-19G490-A variant or non-OE copies of dubious quality and compatibility.

  15. I am thinking that I should order a Ford Explorer front camera mount to install a front camera just below the Ford logo without having to get a new front bumper. The goal is to mount the camera as close as possible to the Edge that already have the front camera. FB5Z19H421AA FB5Z19H421A

  16. A recent update brought it back! The reload circle arrow in the upper right can be used (only once every 30 seconds) to update the current location while it is being driven. I don't know when or what version of FordPass on Android got it, I pretty much gave up on it, but my wife got a flat tire (FordPass let me know) so I checked the location since it said it was running and not parked, and it's current location wasn't where it was parked last, and it updated to a closer location once I used the reload button.

  17. Ford Edge 2013 SEL FWD 3.5L with Sync2 + NAV I find the 'touch' action on the center console rather a distraction when driving. Often I need to look down to make sure I'm touching the correct button for comfort (heat/cooling, etc.). It would be so much easier to do this without looking if they were actual buttons, as in most other vehicles. Does anyone know of a center console replacment that has buttons instead of the touch?

  22. Reviving an old thread because the description is similar to what I've noticed on my 2017 Sport. I haven't rotated tires for quite some time and this past weekend I notice wear in the inboard edge of both front tires - other than that all four are wearing very evenly. See photos of the right front wheel. What's your thoughts on the cause? Also, where can I find the alignment spec for my 2017 Sport? Also, my work colleague races his Corvette and just sold his string alignment kit and bought the Gyraline Alignment kit which he says he's very happy with - any first hand experience here?

  23. I generally reset the trip each way, but decided to get a round trip view, since there are a variety of mountains on this trip and end at different elevations. Observations... I was on track to equal the EPA highway rating (even though that really isn't interstate driving if you look at the cycle) of 29mpg until: 10 minutes of 30-40 sustained, 60+ gusts of wind (and sand storm) dropped the average from 28.5 to 28 20(ish) seconds of WOT up a hill to get out of a bad situation developing (2 semis that couldn't maintain their lanes) dropped it from 28 to 27 This trip starts at 2200 ft elevation, tops out at around 5000 ft, and ends at 3900 ft The average speed of 77 mph is on par with what I usually average on this trip, as it is 98% interstate, 2 times 75>65 in city, and about 10 miles of highway at 65>55 I can knock 1 mpg off my average over 300 miles simply being aggressive getting on the interstate on a short on ramp (but I won't try merging at 35 mph either) Overall not bad for fuel mileage, but it is very easy to blow it up, winds really affect it, as does accelerating to pass people, especially over hills. Adaptive Cruise and being alert but not overdoing it goes a long ways. I would love to say I could set the cruise at 75 and just do that, but with the hills, semis, wrecks towing wrecks (people that buy cheap cars and drag them to Mexico/Guatemala), 75 mph is just...hard to maintain without speeding up and slowing down. I could easily get 30/31 mpg on this drive in my 2017 Escape with the 1.5. But I could also get really terrible mileage with wind, which is a big issue on this drive. I would get 25 mpg in my 2000 Grand Marquis (which I miss).

  25. 2024 Edge Workshop Manual - China region... Placing your device cursor over underlined acronyms may yield popup full-words meanings for acronyms. Auto Hold The auto hold feature is activated and deactivated through the use of the auto hold switch located on the FCIM . For the system to activate, the vehicle must not be moving, the driver safety belt must be buckled and the driver door must be closed. The ABS module receives the driver safety belt buckle status from the RCM and driver door status from the BCM , while brake system pressure and the wheel speed are received from ABS sensors. This information allows the ABS module to determine if the vehicle is stopped. Once the previous conditions have been met the auto hold feature can be activated. When the switch is pressed, the FCIM receives a ground signal from the auto hold switch and sends an auto hold message to the GWM over the HS-CAN3 . The GWM relays the message to the ABS module over the FD-CAN . The ABS module then sends a message to the instrument cluster through the GWM indicating the auto hold feature has been activated and the instrument cluster illuminates the auto hold indicator. The auto hold indicator illuminates when the IPC receives a message from the ABS module through the GWM . Once the auto hold feature is activated and the driver presses the brake pedal, the ABS module closes the isolation valves in the HCU to maintain the current brake system pressure at the wheel ends. The ABS module maintains the pressure until the driver presses the accelerator pedal, shifts the transmission into PARK or after a specific time limit has been reached. The ABS module engages the parking brake after 2-10 minutes, depending on the grade of incline the vehicle is currently stopped on, the steeper the grade, the shorter the time. Auto Hold Switch The auto hold switch is a momentary contact, push button switch and is part of the FCIM . Normal Operation and Fault Conditions Vehicles equipped with EPB are also equipped with an auto hold feature. This feature must be enabled by the driver by pressing the auto hold switch once the driver seatbelt is buckled and the driver door is closed. Pressing the auto hold switch in the FCIM enables the auto hold feature, but does not activate auto hold. When the switch is pressed, the FCIM sends a message to the ABS module indicating the system has been enabled. The ABS module then waits for messages from the RCM and BCM as well as ABS sensor information to indicate the auto hold feature can be activated. Once all criteria has been met, the ABS module activates the auto hold feature. In the case of a system error, the instrument cluster displays messages and icons. China region Search-function is not locating Auto Hold switch and other FCIM controls in Wiring Diagrams or Workshop Manual procedures, and no China-region Owner's Manual is shown. Hopefully, the above verbiage provides you sufficient Auto Hold awareness at this stage of your inquiry. Good luck!

  26. Well I pulled the rear driveshaft Thursday. Was not sure what to expect, I was kinda halfway thinking the system would act like an open differential and I would have no movement at all. But, the car drives just fine with no ill effects it seems. I drove it around this past weekend and into work this morning with no issues. Good news is that the vibration at 25mph is all but gone so it does appear to have been the driveshaft. I think that maybe the splined connections need to be staked or upset such that they do not slide in/out. Instead of that motion being taken up by the flexible connection at the PTU the relative in/out movement was happening in the splines resulting in limited engagement. At least that is what I think. Pretty sure FMC never intended anyone to rebuild the driveshaft. I would like to have AWD at least for next winter so I will noodle on this a bit and hopefully come up with a cheap fix. Not a lot of room to get in there and stake the splines. Anyway the bad vibration is gone for now. However, every time I fix something another noise that was masked comes to the top of the spectrum. I am getting a howling noise at speed. it's not bad at this point so I am not overly concerned. On another note, the right rear tire has significant cupping on the inside, a product of worn out bushings. Not sure I want to tackle that as it could put me down the rabbit hole of multiple parts replacements. Might just rotate the tires and spread that joy around to the other three tires. New goal is to get through summer with the car, stretch goal is to hit 300K. Gonna get my $200 initial investment back out if it kills me.

  27. For that VIN and generally for 2020 Edge -- which is the latest listed model year shown -- no mention or depiction of AutoHold switch or circuits/connectors in the China region Wiring Resource, though the China region Workshop Manual includes identification of the Instrument Panel Cluster's AutoHold Reconfigurable TellTale (RTT) indicator lamp in an IPC illustration... ...and as you mentioned previously, a single reference to AutoHold in the China region HTML format Owner's Manual, which is the only format in which the Owner's Manual is offered... Good luck!

  28. Last night I upgraded the rear wheel speed sensors with the bi-directional ones. I parked a car on the street to test. My neighbors must have thought that I was the worst driver ever. I drove past the car about 30 times. I am going to have to replace the front side parking sensors with the correct long range ones. Sometimes I would get false detections of parking spots. The system had a difficult time measuring the parking spot. Sometimes it would detect the space, but then it gave up and never told me to shift into reverse. Sometimes it got way too close where the front tire was going to hit the car. However, after many trials, I got a few good results. I got to experience active park assist. It was nice that I could shift between reverse and drive any time so that the system would make its next move. I also tried park out assist and it worked well. Next: 1. An ABS module replacement is not required. We do not need to upgrade to CADS3. 2. Long range parking sensors are required to accurately detect parking spaces. Standard “HU5T-15K859” sensors will work as a parking aid, but they don’t measure parking spaces well.

  30. Our having the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) enables us to gain fuller understanding from the 2019 Edge Workshop Manual... So, the potential failure modes involve wiring and/or connectors, the PTU Actuator Motor, or the AWD Module. The potentially involved wiring and/or connectors between the PTU Actuator Motor and the AWD Module are highlighted in yellow toward the bottom of the following Wiring Diagram... The Workshop Manual recommends performing electrical diagnostic Pinpoint Test A in order to assess which of the three failure modes - wiring/connectors, or PTU Actuator Motor, or AWD Module -- is the cause of DTC C0090:18 being set in the AWD Module. Attached below as PDF documents are Workshop Manual and Wiring Resource sections that can provide you fuller awareness of the potential work involved in addressing the diagnostic effort and the various repair procedures. Ford's online parts-selling site shows the PTU Actuator Motor... Link to this FordParts webpage It's worth noting that replacement of the PTU Actuator Motor/Transfer Case Motor involves dropping the vehicle's Front Subframe, which is a substantial task that must involve the right equipment to ensure personal safety, as detailed in the below-attached Workshop Manual procedures. Ford's Service Labor Time Standard (SLTS) for removing and installing a PTU in a 2.7L EcoBoost Edge is 6.1 hours. Replacement of the PTU Actuator Motor might involve another hour of Labor. So, Labor will be the majority of the cost if you have the job done by a professional technician at a dealership or independent repair facility. While you might undertake the electrical diagnostic procedure to personally assess wiring/connectors and the state of the PTU Actuator Motor, keep in mind that a professional technician will duplicate that task prior to replacing the PTU Actuator Motor, with the SLTS for that being 0.3-0.5 hour of Labor, which is less time than it would take me to put our 2015 MKX up in the air and safely roll underneath it.

  32. I have a 2024 Edge ST with the factory installed tow package. I was under the rear of the vehicle doing an inspection and there appears to be a missing part. A heat shield. Where the rear muffler pipes branch off and head out of the trapezoid exhaust trim pieces. It looks like it would protect the rear lower bumper and lower trim pieces from excessive heat. There are attachment points to the lower bumper trim panel but no shield. I tried looking up parts diagrams and cannot find this rear heat shield but have seen it in exhaust installation/removal videos on YouTube. I am thinking Ford may have discontinued installing this part on newer ST models but didn't know if anyone had any additional information. For reference it would attach to the back side of the lower gray bumper trim piece that has the exhaust tip diffusers.

  34. So, the backup camera in the wife's '11 Edge SEL in Mediterranean Blue Metallic has been transmitting video of a demogorgon straight from The Upside Down and I'd like her to be able to see reality once again. Might prevent her from running over errant children and cute puppies since she's an otherwise excellent driver. Normally for things like this I get OEM Ford/Motorcraft parts since my experience as a computer tech/sysadmin is that eBay Special™ off-brand electronics don't always work the way you want them to. For my '16 Mustang GT/CS I have the proper Ford OEM FR3Z-19G490-A on its way to me, but that was only $58.99 from American Muscle. The cheapest I seem to be able to find the ET4Z-19G490-A from a source I trust is $220. Why the disparity!? Anyway, there does seem to be a replacement module from Master Tailgaters for $110 that somehow seems to be well-regarded... in Amazon reviews. We all know that Amazon reviews are about as trustworthy as a kid with a mouthful of chocolate mumbling "I didn't eat your Hershey bar!". Amazon link with the referral stuff removed (because referral stuff is annoying and dumb): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CMW7PW2K So, is that actually good? Is it trash? Are there options that are better but also affordable? I have a full license for ForScan and the necessary connectivity, so throw anything you got at me, as long as it's affordable. 😅

  35. What brand of tires and what is the DOT code on the tire? It appears so one likes to drive what some would consider a little "sporty". The shoulder wear (both sides) indicates where the steel belt ends. If it was a toe problem, the edges of all of the tread blocks would have a feathered edge on one side. But, the pics indicate small chunks are being shed while at high steering angles. In the top image it appears that a little extra wear is indicated by the right side being a little more worn than the left. That would indicate about half a degree of extra camber to that side, providing that is about 12 K miles in normal conditions on that tire. Gary

  37. If anybody seen the 2000 early model commercials where the guys driving on skyscrapers and they're living on the edge! I always tease my girlfriend never living on the edge with our grocery getters. .. I bought both of these at a auto insurance auction 2010 with 170k hit a deer lightly well that's what I thought, and the same scenario with my fiance's 2008 with 160k. I picked these high mile rigs up on a whim we're here in Minnesota for 6 months on her travel nurse contract so just needed quick snow prepared rigs. (Mines 2wd tho) Paid under 1k each for them, used most all salvage yard parts probably have 1500 into each of them. I replaced the core supports radiators all the accompanying bits salvage some parts of the front end of one it was a job and even more so in -5° temperature which is what it was when I did mine. (And the serpentine belt no less I didn't gravel parking lot with no recover from the elements whatsoever.) 💪 I've got a ton of questions I'm about to do a brake booster today among other things I look forward to learning a lot I've been lurking in the threads past few months.

Repair/Claim Coding Causal Part: 14H522 Condition Code: 04 Service Procedure NOTE: The time required to complete this procedure varies depending on several factors including the number of module software updates required, available internet bandwidth, USB flash drive variability, and the potential that CAN flashing (software update via the DLC with FDRS) may be required. Connect to the internet with an ethernet cable, use a USB 3.2 Gen 2 or higher flash drive. When performing USB software updates, using high speed USB ports on the laptop is recommended for faster file transfer. 1. Start an FDRS session and navigate to Toolbox tab > Datalogger > body control module ( BCM) and select the BATT_SOC PID. Verify the PID reads 50% or higher. NOTE: Connecting the battery charger negative clamp directly to the battery negative terminal might result in the SOC PID not immediately reflecting the improvement from charging. (1). If SOC is less than 50%, charge the battery by attaching the battery charger's negative clamp to the engine or chassis ground and not the negative battery terminal. Refer to WSM, Section 414-01. (2). If the battery is unable to achieve a 50% SOC, use the Rotunda GRX-3590 or DCA-8000 testers to verify if replacement is required. • If the battery does not need to be replaced, disconnect the Rotunda charger and perform a BMS reset using the FDRS scan tool. • If the battery is replaced, fully charge the new battery, disconnect the Rotunda charger and perform a BMS reset using the FDRS scan tool. • Claim the battery testing and replacement outside of this article. 2. Reconnect the battery charger and set it to maintain a vehicle voltage of 12.6-13.6 volts. A low battery voltage or SOC while performing a software update to any module may result in a repeat "Restart Required" message in the vehicle's center display screen or a message on the FDRS saying "Part Number Validation Failed" or "DID Validation Failed". 3. Run the "Read The Configuration Data" app in FDRS, located in Toolbox > Multi- Module tab. 4. Navigate to the SW Updates tab. Is there a software update available for any of the following modules? GWM TCU APIM (1). Yes - proceed to Step 5. (2). No - this article does not apply. 5. Prepare to update the software for the GWM, TCU, and APIM. (1). A 64GB or larger USB flash drive is required for GWM, TCU, and APIM software updates. USB 3.2 Gen 2 or higher is recommended for faster file transfer on both the computer port and the USB drive. (2). Make sure the USB flash drive being used is formatted correctly. To see the available drives, hold down the Windows icon keyboard key and press the E keyboard key. Right click on the USB flash drive and select Properties. If File System under the General tab is not exFAT, the drive must be formatted. (3). To format the USB flash drive: • Right click on the USB flash drive. • Select Format, select exFAT for the File System. • Select Default Allocation Size for the Allocation Unit Size. (4). De-selecting Quick Format is not necessary and results in a lengthier operation. 6. Using the FDRS, begin module programming by selecting the "SW Updates" tab. Follow all on-screen instructions carefully. 7. When prompted, connect the USB flash drive to the FDRS. 8. When prompted by the FDRS, safely remove/eject the USB flash drive from the FDRS. Start the vehicle ( KOER) then connect the USB flash drive to the USB media hub to install the software into the module. When the USB software update begins, the center display screen displays a message stating "Do Not Remove USB". The update may take 10 minutes or longer to complete. NOTE: It may take up to 5 minutes for the vehicle to recognize the USB flash drive with software update. 9. When the vehicle's center display screen prompts to restart the vehicle: (1). Turn the vehicle OFF. (2). Wait 10 minutes. (3). Restart the vehicle (KOER). The update is still in process at this time. 10. Follow FDRS on-screen prompts to complete the update. NOTE: It may take up to 5 minutes before "Update Successful" appears in the vehicle's center display screen. After 5 minutes if "Update Successful" pop-up is not shown on the center display screen, remove the USB flash drive and select YES on the FDRS prompt stating "Was The USB Update Successful" ( FDRS verifies if the module software update was successfully installed on the module). 11. Perform the software update for the GWM. Follow all update screens. If there is no GWM software update available, proceed to Step 12. (1). If there is no screen prompt indicating that the software update is in progress: • Perform the Digital Experience reset. (2). Follow the center display screen prompts. (3). Follow FDRS prompts to complete the GWM programming. • Once the pop up stating "Update Successful" appears in the center display screen, select Close, remove the USB flash drive from the USB media hub, and select Yes on FDRS indicating the update installed successfully. This initiates the remaining automated configuration steps and reports the module software part numbers and application software levels to the Ford online database. Failure to follow this step results in an inaccurate database as well as omitted, improperly installed, or improperly configured applications (features) such as navigation (if equipped). It is normal for the module to reset during this step. (4). Proceed to Step 12. 12. Perform the software update for the TCU. Follow all update screens. If there is no TCU software update available, proceed to Step 13. (1). If there is no screen prompt indicating that the software update is in progress: • Perform the Digital Experience reset. (2). Follow the center display screen prompts. (3). Follow FDRS prompts to complete the TCU programming. • Once the pop up stating "Update Successful" appears in the center display screen, select Close, remove the USB flash drive from the USB media hub, and select Yes on FDRS indicating the update installed successfully. This initiates the remaining automated configuration steps and reports the module software part numbers and application software levels to the Ford online database.

  45. When a 2020 SEL windshield with the rain sensors is replaced, does the rain sensor need to be calibrated or recalibrated, or is it simply replace, plug and play? And are the rain sensors integrated in the glass, or just replace the windshield and re-use the old sensors? Thanks!

  46. Might be a little late, but I had that exact issue. The only difference is that is came from the passenger side front door. I figured out what it was..... small little rocks that go in this small open space right behind the mudflap that is behind the front passenger wheel. There is an area from where the front door begins, and the mudflap. When going faster these little rocks swing right up in there and then they do the bingo roll at highway speeds. I stick the hose to it and blast them out.
