Issue happened again today. No response from the keyfob or the engine start button. Yet when I opened the door using the emergency key the alarm went off! The Horn worked and I was able to turn off the alarm by entering the keyless entry code on the outside keypad. Disconnected the battery for a few seconds and then reconnected it, vehicle started completely fine. This time the only code was from the BCM related to something with the steering column lock (B1026) which probably was due to the battery disconnect/reconnect as always see a bunch of similar codes.

How did you install it and wire it?

looking for part that attaches the strut to the wheel

Lower control arm? Or knuckle? Check this link for a diagram and parts: https://www.tascaparts.com/v-2007-ford-edge--se--3-5l-v6-gas/front-suspension--front-suspension -
My 2016 currently has ~38K miles. Original front pads. Rear pads were replaced ~500 miles ago.

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
omar302 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Your Edge is also a 2016, right? Mine dis not have that icon on the stock cluster, nor in the MKX. I suspect it started showing up in your Edge due to some ForScan change as I see you have done some other changes to your cluster. -

Lane keep assist I know is the bigger one next to the fuel gauge, my question was about the small one below. My 2016 Sport also has lane keep assist but I haven't seen this icon. If it is also for the lane keep, what does it mean? -

Group 65 Battery in 2nd Gen Possible?
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2015+ Edge & MKX Generation II
We have AC Delco, Motorcraft, Panasonic, Hyundai and then some other unknown brands. We had 3 models/sizes of Optima batteries, non fit. The market here is very oriented towards Asian make vehicles, so not a lot of options. Also, they universally have 1 year warranties except the Motorcraft BXT that get 3 years. Since we get about 1.5 -2 years life out of batteries, the Motorcraft warranty means I'm basically buying 2 batteries. My current battery is nearly 2 years old, so I'm expecting it to go out soon and just trying to be prepared and decide what to replace it with. -
Group 65 Battery in 2nd Gen Possible?
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2015+ Edge & MKX Generation II
Thanks to all. My problem is that we don't have many choices for batteries here. The BXT-65-650 being more common is actually cheaper than the BXT-90T5-590. Hence my desire to use that, being cheaper, bigger & easier to find. -
Ford Active Noise Control
omar302 replied to niceonept's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
If you have cooled & heated seats, then there are fans in the seats. 2 fans per seat, one at the bottom and the other inside the seat back. When the cooling or heating is on max (3 LEDs) the noise is easily heard. For me it's clear as fan noise, but others might think of them as white noise. To test if the noise is really from the ANC, open a door to the first latch. If the vehicle detects a open door the ANC will turn off. -
As per the title, anyone tried installing a Group 65 Battery in a 2nd Gen Edge? Specifically the Motorcraft BXT-65-650? Price wise it is close to the stock (BXT-90T5-590 in my Edge) but has much more Reserve Capacity. The other battery specified for the 2nd Edge (BAGM-48H6-760) is 2-3X more expensive here. I know it is bigger than the stock battery (BXT-90T5-590 or BAGM-48H6-760), comparison is attached. For the earlier 1.5 Gen, both would fit.

Ford Active Noise Control
omar302 replied to niceonept's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I don't get that noise in my 2016 Sport. I remember reading of a member or two who had some issues due to the Active Noise Control (ANC) and the solution was a software update to a module. Maybe this also applies to this noise too. Edit: Found this: -
And only for those with butt dynos ?. I then misunderstood your post.

You SHOULD feel a difference. The owner's manual also states "For best overall vehicle and engine performance, premium fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher is recommended." A lot of newer vehicles, Ford's EcoBoost engines included, are designed like that. They can work with regular fuel, but using Premium fuel would yield better performance. Ford also had started advertising their Horsepower & Torque number when using 93 Octane fuel.

Help please! Acceleration stops on freeway!

There is no video posted in your post. Any warning lights comes on when the issue happens? -
How often do you put on your emergency/parking brake?
omar302 replied to flymore's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I used to put on daily whenever I park as it was along time habit, but recently with it being electrical on the Gen2 Edge I just felt that the actuator might fail sooner if I kept engaging it every single time. So now I judge when I park, if it is a level surface I'd skip engaging the parking brake. -
Maybe try to have someone hold the lever pulled while another tries to pull up on the hood.

I am not into tuning, came across this post from the Fusion Sport Forums, the OP seems to have went through a lot to get his tune & misfires sorted out. Maybe he can help you out seeing how the Edge Sport is closely related to the Fusion Sport.

As @ben senise stated above, the "distance to empty" figures are predictive. They use the average MPG of the past few hundred miles, so if your current driving uses has a lower mpg compared to the average used for calculation, the "distance to empty" number will go down quickly. From you posts above, seems your driving is for short drives which will definitely reduce your mileage.

Under hood temps and hood heat extractor install
omar302 replied to poontanghooligan's topic in 2.7L EcoBoost
If you have access to the 2019/2020 service manual you should be able to see the engine cooling components. That's how I found it on the 2015 model. -
Battery is 22 months old. It's a Motorcraft BXT-90T5-590E, the 2nd battery in the Edge's lifetime.

Yesterday I went to work in my Edge with no issues. In the afternoon when leaving (~8 hours later), the fob was not responding to unlock, so I thought the fob battery had died. But the the Edge still did not start using the fob backup slot. Nothing came up on the cluster which lead me to thing it was the vehicle's battery was dead as it is 666 days old, and not the fob. So tried to jump start it with another vehicle but no success. Still nothing from the start button or cluster. I then realized that using the keypad buttons outside worked, I can lock/unlock the doors find with the keypad, but neither the fob or the interior lock/unlock buttons worked. So in a hunch, I disconnected the vehicles battery for about a minute & reconnected it and the Edge Started fine!!! Checking for codes, I found a bunch or U codes, which usually come after a battery disconnect, but also got a P2610 - ECM/PCM Engine Off Timer Performance. Any thoughts on this? The Edge is now working fine even with the code on. Cleared it is gone. It is a 2016 Edge Sport with approximately 36K miles.

omar302 replied to poontanghooligan's topic in 2.7L EcoBoost
The 2019+ Edge has a different PTU than prior models, is there also a water cooled version of the new PTU? The change in the 2019+ PTU is the ability to disconnect the driveshaft when AWD is not needed, so I am surprised it is heating up in your Edge ST when towing at highway speeds, I would have thought that the driveshaft would be disconnected and thus no load on the PTU. -
So the driver door's intelligent access unlock function does not work, what about for locking the doors? I don't recall this issue being brought up before. What if you try the rear driver side door, does it then open all doors? The rear doors on the Edge also have intelligent access. If the rear door does open all door locks, my guess is that there might be a fault in the driver door handle or the connection to it.
