Wiring for Paddle Shifters - Sport & non-Sport
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
Yes, the Sport does not have the +/- button on the shift lever. Nor does the 2013 MKX that has Paddle shifters, you get either the shifter button or the paddles, but the wiring diagram doesn't seem to show it like that, my understanding of the diagram is that the wires for the shifter are the same for all Edges. -
Wiring for Paddle Shifters - Sport & non-Sport

Just need to spare some time to remove the bottom cover of the steering column & look at the wires. The heat is also not helping! -
Wiper blades?
omar302 replied to Bryan003's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
I personally tried Trico Teflon SHIELD & am very happy with them. They are now ~ 1.5 years old & still working great, though here we have very HOT weather in summer & no snow in winter. TRICO 20260 (20-260) for the drivers sides, 26" long. TRICO 20200 (20-200) for the passenger side, 20" long. -
Also, it seems there is a weight difference in the 3.7 Engine cause both, the Sport & MKX are ~ 200lbs heavier than a 3.5 Edge (AWD vs. AWD & FWD vs. FWD).

Bluetooth won't stay connected
omar302 replied to trough57's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Did you try a Master Reset on the car? When the phone does not connect, did you try to turn off-on the Bluetooth on the phone or restart the phone? Does it then connect? If yes, did you try a hard reset (factory reset) of the phone?- 1 reply

From your description, cold when moving & hot when stopped, it is most probably the engine cooling fan(s).

2011, 2012 & early build 2013 did not have an indicator for headlights on. It was added to later builds of 2013 models (and probably 2014). Refer to this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12089-is-there-an-indicator-light-for-head-lights-on/ This is the base cluster with the indicator on: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12089-is-there-an-indicator-light-for-head-lights-on/?do=findComment&comment=92994 This is the dual screen cluster with the indicator: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12089-is-there-an-indicator-light-for-head-lights-on/?do=findComment&comment=92948

Lift gate will not open when car is on...
omar302 replied to jordanneevans's topic in Cargo, Hauling, Roof Racks & Towing
Not sure if it is the same, but with my 2011, if the engine is running, the transmission has to be in Park for the lift gate to operate. -
Wiring for Paddle Shifters - Sport & non-Sport
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
Found the wiring diagrams related to the paddles/shifter for the Edge/MKX (attached both, 2011 & 2013). It seems that the same wires are used for the shifter knob +/- switch and the paddles (RE407 & CET42/CET43), the difference being that the same wires (with Paddle shifters) would go through the "Steering Column Control Module". But what I cannot figure out from the diagram is whether the wires for the paddles are only present if the vehicle originally came with them (since they are being labeled so). Also, how come the wires going to the shifter are always there even when the paddles are present. If anyone can shed more light I would be grateful, but from the looks of it, since they are the same wires, it is not a matter of PCM reprogramming, but rewiring and/or reconnections.

I have attached the 3 TSBs that cover Memory Seats, Locks & Wipers. They should be simple repairs. Note that even if a door was left open, there is a battery saver feature that will turn off all lights to prevent the battery from discharging, even if you left the headlights on. The only lights that do not turn off by the battery saver are the parking lights if left on manually (headlight knob turned to the 1st position).

Is your Edge an early made 2011? All the issues you mention are covered by TSBs, except the door lock which is apparently common but no known TSB exists (known to me).

Japanese makes have had off switches from at least the 80's. The Chevy Cruze I owned also had one. For some reason American brands started embracing the idea only lately. Even the Ford Expedition had an off switch for the rear cargo light & the 2013 Fusion can have all the courtesy lights stay off when a door is open. Won't be surprised if the 2015 Edge came with one too.

Headlight On/Off Control Trim
omar302 replied to Shane Bogart's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
EBay? But it is expensive new: http://m.ebay.com/itm/231221562087 Here is a used one, but I think for base model w/o auto lights: http://m.ebay.com/itm/161393880313 I don't think that the ring is sold separately. -
sun roof closing problem
omar302 replied to lpgao's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
I can concur, I tried it yesterday on my 2011 MKX (Updated switch) and the note applied to point 5. So you follow each step separately (you will have to release the switch between steps) & when you reach step 5, both Glass+Shade will fully open together at the same time & then fully close together (unlike usual operation). -

It is written in pages 258 & 259 of the owner's manual. You can download a pdf copy from here: http://owner.ford.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Owner%2FPage%2FOwnerGuidePage -
The 2012-2014 Edge with the 2.0L Ecoboost does have active grille shutters.

2015 Ford Edge Introduced - Edge Going Global
omar302 replied to LI Edge's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Don't know, I was just speculating why. Yes, but now it is the new Fusion Platform (CD4). Looking at images of the trunk of a 2010 & 2013 Fusions shows how the same space, near the rear wheels, is smaller in the 2013 compared to 2010. 2010 Fusion Trunk (old CD3 platform): http://media.caranddriver.com/images/09q4/311246/2010-ford-fusion-sport-awd-trunk-photo-317411-s-1280x782.jpg 2013 Fusion Trunk (new CD4 platform: http://images.gtcarlot.com/pictures/72393602.jpg -
2015 Ford Edge Introduced - Edge Going Global

New it is, compared to the previous Edge. But it is being designed off of the Fusion's chassis, so there are some limitations. -
My Ford Touch New Software Release
omar302 replied to tjbron's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
In the main (center Screen): Settings> Help> System Information> CCPU S/W Version Check the number in the middle: If it was 13171, then you have version 3.6.2 (latest North America) If it was 12285, then you have version 3.5.1 If it was 12156, then you have version 3.2.2 If it was 12023, then you have version 3.0.2 (the 1st “Performance upgrade” released in March 2012) Less than that, it is a very old version. Also, you can check here version numbers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyFord_Touch#Versions -
2015 Ford Edge Introduced - Edge Going Global
omar302 replied to LI Edge's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Since the 2015 Edge has a new rear suspension setup, my guess is that these humps are to accommodate it (the shock absorbers and/or coil springs). -
You can enable a "Delay" feature in Vehicle>Camera settings of the main (center) screen. This will enable keeping the revers camera on when moving from Reverse to Drive and the Camera will remain on until you reach a certain speed (~5-8 mph, don't remember exactly). But to keep the Camera on in Drive at any other speed cannot be done unless you install an aftermarket kit such as this http://www.coastaletech.com/mytouch2.htm.

Wiring for Paddle Shifters - Sport & non-Sport
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
Thanks WWWPerfA_ZN0W, unfortunately the infotrac does not work for me, it seems there is an IP issue from my country. But from the video it seems simple, the wiring & clock spring look very similar to the 2011. Will try to see it when I have some time. -
Wiring for Paddle Shifters - Sport & non-Sport
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
We only have 1 dealer in Qatar. So trying a different dealer is not possible. Several things to consider: 1- I know the clockspring has the additional pins, it is the same part for vehicles equipped with & without paddles, but I am not sure wires are present after the clockspring. 2- I don't believe programming would be different, since the paddles don't really add a new function, they do the same job as the +/- switch on the shift knob. The only added feature is the ability to temporarily shift while in 'D' compared to shifting only in 'M' or 'S' for the +/- switch. Considering the above, I would be more inclined to think it's a wiring thing. So to be sure, is it easy to remove the clock spring to check? Would appreciate a simple how to. Thanks. -
Did you try a Master Reset of the center screen?
