You get the guide lines with a Gen 2 camera but no blocks. It also seems a bit wider angle then before. Very clear and bright image though.

Guidelines are there. Still beeps when getting close to an object. I haven't tried to calibrate it as long as it comes on and isn't upside down I'm ok with it.

I just installed a F2GZ-19G490-A. Clear image. Correct orientation. I really never used the warning blocks so I don't miss them. We'll see how long this one lasts.

So tempting. My only issue is I don't have a lap top to run Forscan on.

FORD found out we were fixing them ourselves. LOL

Looks like Ford just can't get a simple camera to work. I had a Chinese eBay special on my old Mazda and that think worked for years. It even had excellent night vision.

Did your hose pop off? Happened in my buddy's Supra, hose looked attached but was just lose enough to not hold pressure. Tightened it down and was good to go.

Hmm. Part has known issue so they send out a letter saying if you experience said issue come in and we'll fix it for free. The equals a TSB to me. But I guess for a dealer to fix it ford must extend the warranty on the part??? So it's both maybe?

Let me start by saying I've used this dealer several times and they've been great in the past. I've had oil changes, tires mounted, and even past TSB work done. Transmission bag was first back in 2012, then last summer it was the APIM swap. So I felt very comfortable calling them when I noticed my break booster going out. Spongy pedal, loud hiss from the dash when brakes are applied. I came here got the TSB looked up my vin in ETIS printed it all out and took it to the dealer on Friday morning at 7:30am.

Of course they need to verify everything with their own test. Around Noon I called about the Edge. Yup test confirmed bad brake booster, parts ordered should be ready on Saturday. So today I call around noon, yup it's ready.

Wife drops me off, I go to the service cashier and he proceeds to tell me I owe them 109.00 for the work. I said I don't think that's right as it was a TSB repair covered by ford. So he says let's call the service rep in here. She tells me it's a deductible due to my mileage.....?????? She then pulls the work form showing my mileage at 84,xxx I said ok, I then show her the first paragraph of the TSB that states 10yr or 150,000 miles warranty extension. She and the cashier look at each other like "what do we do?" After about 3 minutes of silence she says "I think we messed up the work order". I ask can I have something showing the work that was completed for my records? Another long pause and then the cashier prints a page for me. Had all my info and part listed and the tech that did the work but any price on the page was zeroed out.

I really felt like they were completely aware of how TSBs are handled but was hoping that I wasn't. I hate feeling like I can't trust this dealer. I will say this service rep was not the one I've always dealt with in the past as he was on vacation. Maybe that had something to do with it.

This was Ted Russell Ford Parkside in Knoxville TN.

New camera has to be programmed at the dealer to get your guids back.

Kissel, it's very easy to replace the camera yourself. Most have had good results. You can get the camera for around 80 bucks.

The lack of custom wallpaper really bugs me. So much so that it's the only reason I haven't pulled the trigger on a new edge vs my 2011. Wife calls me crazy, but I like things to looks a certain way, even at a glance. I also agree with that other post about the Nav map coloration being too light. Yellow roads, green grass, blue water makes for a nice map.

Have to get the camera reprogrammed by the dealer

Are you planning on going to the dealer to reprogram the camera to get your guide lines back? If so let us know how much it cost.

Thanks.

Yes. It's the law I believe. Audi does this as well.

Apple is definitely the cause. its basically doing the same thing MFT does while the car is in motion i.e. Not allowing touch screen input to change an address in the nav. Most of apples native apps work fine "eyes free" cause of how they were written to work with CAR PLAY. It's stuff like Pandora and non apple apps that "Siri" won't let you open.

It's a pretty simple concept that has had waaaaaay to much thought put into who's doing what.

FYI: asking Siri to open the native music app to listen to a playlist or listen to Apple Music(find Queen, Fat bottom girls) worked fine for me. It also again auto switched to BT feed for me. Skipping the MTF command to select BT audio.

The only bug I've noticed is when I send or receive a text sometimes MFT switches from radio to IPhone for my music source. So I have to manually switch back to radio.

One feature I like is now I can use Siri to call up some music on my phone and MFT auto switches to Bluetooth audio for me.

Nice.

Correct WingNut. I couldn't find the specs for the actual round fog lamp. I'm sure it's out there somewhere.
