Interior Ambient Lighting
omar302 replied to tamugrad2013's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
It is common with the last update of MFT (v3.6). Even Explorer owners face the same issue: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=407107 Hopefully the next update of MFT (if it comes) will fix it. -
Welcome Kyra, Don't think anyone has brought up this idea before in the forum, but if you have the towing package, you could use a hitch mounted light. http://m.ebay.com/itm/201019024562

Well, it seems summer has finally come!! Yesterday noon, while driving (not heat soaked in traffic). A/C was barely cooling while standstill, but fine when moving. No comment.

No you can't add NAV to non-NAV equipped vehicles. It's something only Ford knows the reason for. But you still get voice turn by turn navigation through Sync subscription.

Would someone be kind enough to check/confirm if their are any differences in the wirings between an Edge Sport with Paddle Shifters & a regular Edge without Paddles? I have a 2011 MKX, without paddle shifters, & would like to add them by changing the steering wheel to a 2013 that came with. I was able to confirm that the clocksprings & Airbags are the same for vehicle with & without Paddle Shifters, but would like more confirmation if possible. Background: On the 2011-2014 Explorer, there is a "TOW/HAUL" mode button that comes with the Tow Package, it was found out that by just replacing the switch to one that includes the TOW/Haul buttons will enable the mode without any further modification. So I am hoping that the same goes for the Paddle Shifters, that its only a signal that if present, will work. My question on the 2011 Edge is because it is the most straight forward comparison, all other wirings should be identical between them in the steering wheel except for the added Paddle Shifters on the Sport (given both have the same options).

FRAM Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter

Did you get the Fram filter? Did it look like the one in their video? See my post above. -
FRAM Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter
omar302 replied to normcloutier's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Checking the "framfreshbreeze" website, the part number for the Edge is CF10547. But I noticed that in the video, the filter being installed is different than the picture given for CF10547, Check the video at 0:42, the filter looks of different construction compared to the removed OEM filter or pictured CF10547. I don't mean the difference in color (Carbon filter vs. regular), but totally different fins & sides. Also, note that the edge in the video is a 2011+ although the video states its for a 2010. http://www.framfreshbreeze.com/Installation.aspx?yr=2011&me=FORD%20TRUCK&ml=Edge Filter being installed: Removed Filter: -
Changing factory HID bulbs?

The Edge Sport does NOT have HID lights. Your bulbs are halogen HIR2. -
13N02 - Extended Warranty Coverage on Brake Booster
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
There is also an extended warranty on the APIM (Accessory Protocol Interface Module), which is the MyFord Touch module (with screen I think). The warranty is extended to 5 years from purchase date (6 years for Lincoln) regardless of mileage. Check this for more info: http://allstatetrucks.com/images/Recalls/R12M02%2011%20thru%2013%20Models%20with%20Sync%20and%20MyFord%20Touch.pdf -
It is in pages 192-193 of the owners manual under the "Transmission" section. You could also easily find it from the Index under "T - Transmission". I attached a copy of pages 192-193. A PDF copy of the manual can be downloaded from Ford's site for easy access. https://owner.ford.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Owner/Page/OwnerGuidePageVehicleLookup&BackToLogin=Owner/Page/OwnerGuidePage&ord=67673206 13edgom3e_Page_192-193.pdf

I hope you get your Edge fixed soon, just note that in the Owners Manual, there is a procedure listed to shift out of park with a dead battery without having to jump start it.
-
Check this post, your booster should have an extended warranty coverage. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/13888-13n02-extended-warranty-coverage-on-brake-booster/
-
Since the Fans are not working at all, I suggest you also check the cooling fan fuse/Relay in the Engine compartment fuse box.
-
The 2.0 in the Fusion is considered as a Performance upgrade. Considering the weight of the Edge, it is NOT an upgrade in terms of performance. Since your looking for Performance, go for the V6.
-
I am not 100% sure, but the steering wheel looks similar between the Explorer & Edge, so I would think they are the same. Check the below thread. In post #9, TheWizard explains how to remove the switch. Seems easy enough. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12632-right-blinker-wont-stay-on-possible-causes/

When pulling the lever, do you get the High Beam indicator in the instrument cluster? If not, I would suspect its the switch, the lever itself. If your out of warranty, change the lever, it is relatively cheap (~ 30 USD). Here is one on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/251469441032
-
I would suggest checking your fuses first. Fuse number 39 (15A rating) in drivers side left kick panel fuse box is for the High Beams.
-
You have High Beams (supposed to anyway). It uses the same HID light bulb, there is a shield in front of the HID bulb that creates the cut-off in the light beam pattern, when you turn on the high beams, a solenoid will move that shield thus letting more light out. To activate the High Beams, you pull on the turn signal lever. You should also hear a click or thud sound coming from the engine area when turning on/off the high beams, which is the sound of the solenoid.

A regular reset? Just disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes.

Hello MKX Forum & So Long Ford Edge Forum
omar302 replied to LONGDISTANCEMKX's topic in Welcome Forum!
I don't know why the MKX forum was created, but since both cars are basically the same, they should share a forum. Most info is related to both vehicles. -
That is smart unlock, a feature to help prevent being locked out of your vehicle. To bypass it, lock the car using the keypad by pressing the 9/0 & 7/8 buttons simultaneously. You can also use an another FOB to lock it. Note that there is a security issue by leaving you key inside, I have detailed it more in these posts I made earlier: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/14049-spare-key/?do=findComment&comment=108786 http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/14049-spare-key/?do=findComment&comment=108877 Read the whole thread for more info.

There is not supposed to be any link. If the headlights are on (manually or automatically via the light sensor), the high beams should turn on (and remain on) as long as the headlights are still on. For fog lights (on an MKX, the 2011+ Edge does not have them), they will turn off when the high beams are tuned on, but not the opposite (turning on the fog lights will NOT turn off the high beams). This is the normal operation, at least like what I have in my 2011 MKX. On an another note, checking the prices for the turn signal & high beam stalk, the 2011 & 2012 have a price, 2013 has a higher price, then 2014 has a different lower price. 2011/12 have the high beams operate by pulling to a 2nd indent, while 2013/14 have pull/push for flashing/turning on. So there is a chance that 2013 models have some errors and that would explain the change in the part.
-
When you push the stalk forward, you mean towards the front of the vehicle, right? Pulling it will only flash the headlight. If you are actually pushing it forward, make sure you are not pushing it fast to the point that when the stalk s going back to its normal position, it might actually overshoot and go to the "pull" position (flash) causing the high beams to turn off. Hope you understand what I mean. If the above is not your case, and you are sure you are pushing the stalk forward (towards the front of vehicle), and the stalk is returning to normal position, yet the high beams are turning off, then you'll need to take your car to a dealer.
