  1. Thanks. Lots of differences. I will have plenty to do on rainy days.😊
  2. I did not get it to show up. I confirmed that it was powered up and I am 99% sure that the CAN2 was hooked up properly as well. I assume that the profile characteristics are in as built database. I cannot figure out how to fool the system. It would be interesting to compare my 2019 ST with a 2019 Nautilus with and without Adaptive suspension. Can we still get the as built data by VIN number? I don't remember how to view the as built data, can someone remind me?
  3. I wonder if you could make these with some 3D printing and creative cutting. I am pretty sure there is a enough room in the mirror case for the camera.
  4. I did create the new profile. I am going to try a different place to grab the CAN2 signal and make sure the signal is actually getting into the VDM
  5. I got the VDM and the connectors. I ran power and CAN2 (from the headlight control module) to the unit. The car does not see the VDM according to forescan. The VDM is powered up, I got 5v on the height sensor reference voltage pin. I reversed the CAN2 wires just to make sure. The wiring diagrams have the + and - switched sometimes. I put a cheap scope on the CAN2 wires and it looks like I have the right ones. I think there may be a setting in a module somewhere that tells the car that VDM is part of the allowed configuration. I tried changing the setting in the IPC that turns on the display part and it would not write. It gave a module configuration error. Not sure what to do next. I only found one reference to "Continuously Variable Suspension" on all the usual forescan type sites. It is for the IPC part.
  6. I decided to buy the official Ford Wiring book. Got a good deal on fleabay. Well, leave it up to Ford to screw it up. The books cover says "2019 Edge". In reality it is for the previous generation Edge, 2018 model year. There is no actual mention of the years covered. But the drawings of the Edge are for the 2018 generation vehicle. I just have to scratch my head on this one.
  7. Thanks. I wonder where C1026 is? Looks like an empty connector.
  8. I looked at the HCM yesterday. It does not match the wiring diagram that is in your thread on the 360 camera. I see references to the Gateway module, but I cannot find any documentation for it, including the location. What am I missing?
  9. I have the VDM and one height sensor on order. I got a the height sensor because I want to confirm how it communicates the back to the VDM. I thought it was a simple voltage divider, but after looking at the service manual again, I think it might be a Hall sensor. I'll know for sure soon.
  10. I think I am going to buy the control module to play with. I am trying to figure out how to tap into the CAN2 line. Anyone have any suggestions?
  11. My first idea was to only make the shock rates adjustable without being adaptive while driving. The cost and the risk of the system not being recognized by the Edge being the main reason behind my thinking. I might just buy the control module above and see if the car will find it. Then I could play around with Forscan and see if I could get it to work. I would use simple fixed resistors for the ride height and shocks. The service manual gives the proper ranges for the resistance. I have not given up.
  12. The Lincoln mirrors are attached to the sheet metal not the small triangle by the glass. The sheet metal profile would have to be close. Not to mention the replacement part for the plastic Edge mount. Too bad, it would have made things pretty easy.,
  13. I am not sure that the Hydrogen is any more dangerous then having 10 to 20 gallons of highly flammable gasoline on board.
  14. This is on my spring to do list. HAZ, do you have access to the wiring diagram that will give me the part number for the female connector? Is is C4044, left rear damper solenoid. Thanks
  15. We added the hood blanket and engine cover to our 2019 SEL. It made a noticeable, but not dramatic decrease in sound. The 2 liter is pretty noisy. Not the engine itself, but the air intake design is bad and causes a lot of high pitch noise. Ford says it is not a defect. Knowing what I know now, I would still add the two parts if I bought an Edge without them.
