Two way communication, with long range, remote start is available as a Ford OEM "Plug & Play" accessory. This one is specific to the Edge with "Push Button start". Also, for your information, the 2013+ Fusion (as an option) & standard on the 2013+ MKZ both have two way communication remote start from the factory. The remotes even have 2 batteries, apparently for the extra function. So it seems the feature will gradually come to most cars.

Nope. It does not sound correct. But would you first clarify what "stock" remote start the car has? These are stock for a 2012 Edge: http://assets.forddirect.fordvehicles.com/assets/ACCS/images/oe_rem_start_keylg-20110926184145_500x370.jpg http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/27892917/aview/M3N5WY86095BTNWKEYSINGLE.jpg

Bad news! http://ces.cnet.com/8301-35289_1-57616498/ford-adding-app-integration-to-3.4-million-cars/ But it does mean that 2011-2014 Edge with the basic MyFord (non-touch) would get the Applink upgrade.

I remember some saying it was NOT there, while others have it. I guess your best bet is to look yourself to find out if there is a wire.

It will amaze you the amount of information available in the owners manual. All Ford vehicles I have seen have had the bulb replacement charts in their owners manual, the oldest for me anyway was a 1989 Grand Marques. But kudos for pointing out the puddle light bulbs, I just don't get why is it a sealed enclosure, while there is a 31mm festoon bulb inside it.

What speed? AWD or FWD?

Unknown Dashboard Light Warning
omar302 replied to baespey's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Read the Owners Manual? In the instrument Cluster, under Settings>Driver Assist>Traction Control select Off. But the default setting is "On". So every time you start the vehicle, it will be on. -
Just go with Ford's recommended Motorcraft oil. The 2011+ have the intelligent oil life monitor and as per the manual, depending on the driving conditions, you could get up to 10,000 miles per change (or a year, whichever comes first).It might not be a year for you, but it's close.

The Limted is the more luxurious version, it has more features not available on the sport, such HID lights. It also seems that the 2014 Sport doesn't have the Adaptive cruise control as an option anymore. But the Sport does have the larger engine, 3.7 vs 3.5 litres. It's not so much more powerful, but is an upgrade. If you interested in the sport for the looks, you can get the wheels, grille & side skirts, which will give 90% of the sport's looks.

Headlight issues. One loe beam out rest work
omar302 replied to Eddieandkat's topic in 2010 Edge & MKX
Yes. Non HID Edge/MKX, 2011+, also use a single bulb and projector. -
Headlight issues. One loe beam out rest work
omar302 replied to Eddieandkat's topic in 2010 Edge & MKX
For the Edge/MKX, it's one fuse fuse for each low beam (2 fuses together) and one for both high beams together. Actually, for the projector system in the Edge, the high beam fuse is probably only for the solenoids that move the shield. The light bulb itself & it's illumination is the same for low & high beams. -
Headlight issues. One loe beam out rest work
omar302 replied to Eddieandkat's topic in 2010 Edge & MKX
Its been like that for the last 10-15 years, I remember it on a 1999 Mercury Sable my parents had. In the old days, it used to be a circuit breaker that protected the headlights. Then they switched to fuses, one for each side, apparently so that you don't lose both your headlights at the same time. -
Sorry, I meant buttons on the screen, just like the photo you posted.

I think you are mixing up between us & imperial gollons in your calculation. Your mileage is actually less in mpg:For example, 12.72 l/100 km is equal to 18.49 mpg.

I heard some in Saudi Arabia with Limited 2013 or 2012 models actually didn't have the "Heat" buttons for the front seats. Apparently they removed them since you don't need them most of the year. Thankfully, the cooled/heated seats & steering wheel are working in my car!

Turn Signal Lever Hard To Move
omar302 replied to TheWizard's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Well, from Fordparts.com, the signal switch for 2011/2012 Edge/MKX, the switch costs $38.58 while for the 2013 Edge/MKX it costs $69.67. For 2014, it costs $28.65!! So it seems the part is actually different (2011/2012, 2013 & 2014) and might not be interchangeable. On my 2011 MKX, the high beam & "flash to pass" are both operated by pulling the lever, while it seems the 2013 & 2014 (reading the Owners Manual), have it as "Pull to flash to pass" & "Push" to turn on the high beams. So they are different. I would love to know if the 2014 switch works in my car as I would really prefer the Pull/Push action compared to the Pull/Pull, and its not expensive. -
Perhaps you need to calibrate the actuators. Run the self test (how to from here), then exit & leave the ignition "On" for at least 30 seconds.

Since you are in Bahrain, I assume your Edge is a "GCC" spec model (if it was sold through a dealer in GCC, it is), unfortunately, Ford Middle East are a bunch of idiots! the MyFord Touch vehicles in GCC have the RDS disabled for no apparent reason. Make a complaint to Ford Middle East , or send them a direct e-mail (menacac@ford.com). Maybe more complaints will make them act. Though when I complained, somebody called me & just claimed that RDS was not available in GCC, even after I explained to him that my 2008 Taurus had it working fine!
