Just wanted to check if this is normal, I noticed that in my 2016 Edge Sport, the tailgate button in the dash panel (next to the headlight knob) stops working as soon as I shut off the engine regardless of door lock status. If the door unlock button is pressed then it works again. If the engine was running the switch works.

Thanks for the heads up. Note: you can also update using your phone with the OBDLink app (at least on the Android app). Settings>Firmware upgrade. The app would download it for you and flash it directly.

Could be as stated above. Another thought, you mentioned that you replaced the "top side bulbs", meaning you kept the lower bulbs stock? Maybe that's what is messing it up, having two types of bulbs in the same electrical circuit.

There is no stock alarm with a shock sensor on the Edge, as far as I know. It is probably an add on. If it is, you'll need to find out how to reduce the sensitivity. The Ford Accessories add on would have a knob to change the sensitivity. The instructions for a 2015-2018 Edge would have the module strapped behind the steering column and could be accessed from the fuse panel door (near where the driver's left knee would be).

Smart idea. But I found out that today's giant smartphones can still be put in the door handle area and they won't fall because of their length.

The whole 1st Gen Edge Sport was mostly appearance trim. The significant performance upgrade of the Edge Sport/ST only started in 2015.

Hope for the best for future. The Palisade seems a really nice ride. Hope you enjoy and it serves you for many years & miles.

Ford now sells their switch separately (link) (without the whole shifter). This was part of TSB 17- 2219 (link).

It is for when the fob's battery is dead and the vehicle is not able to get a signal. You put the fob there and it will pickup the fob's signal in order to start the engine. Even if the fob's battery was removed you can still start the engine if the fob is placed there.

No.

Disabled completely or reduced? On my 2016 Sport, it is there but just a bit. Opening the driver's door (just to get the interior lights on) will disable it and the difference is noticable. But it no where as much or annoying as what I heard in reviews for the 2019 ST when it came out.

On the 2015-2018 models, only the Sport had it. For 2019+ I'm not sure, but the order guide shows it only with the ST.

Only the windows version with an extended license.

How much did it cost you?

I believe it is refered to as "Accessory Delay".

If you mean the front one which is also the front turn signal bulb, you can do so in ForScan. I posted it previously in this thread. Because it looks so much better ? I posted some night shots in that thread. But if the OP is from Europe and had an imported US Edge, he would probably want to do it to comply to some regulation about front marker light that should be white, which the signature lights would comply to I guess. Found similar questions in the ForScan forums.

I agree with @1004ron that these parts are better OEM. Check how the parking light illuminates at the back, is it the surrounding trim that would continue the light bar illumination? If yes, then that is the correct part for the Sport/Titanium. Maybe you just got a defective part. Not sure if the connector is the same, maybe try to connect it on the other side just to check the light function.

Did you replace it with a new or used part? Are you sure you got the correct part? SEL & SE use a different part even though they look similar in daylight, the illuminate differently at night.

Put the key fob inside the slot inside the front center armrest. You can see where the slot is in @macbwt's video below at around the 2:15 mark.

Hyperflash refers to the turn signals. They would flash twice as fast when and LED bulb is installed instead of a stock incandescent. As for LED flashing on a camera but not visible to the naked eye is normal as far as I know.

That is the 8-speed with the 2.0 Engine. With the ST, the tranny is a 6F55 with two added gears, one between the old 1 & 2 and the other is an added over drive after the old 6th.

Where you able to remove the old ones without taking the wheels off? If so how?

As @Itsdjellz pointed above, the 2019 Edge has it. The 2019 Edge also has "Lane Centering" and Evasive Steering assist, which as far as i know, the Fusion still don't offer. The thing with new tech is it is usually added to a certain vehicle during a new model design or mid-cycle refresh. At least that's how most Fords are.

What he said ?. Only since you have a physical keypad (not touch), you don't have to hold the buttons, just press them simultaneously.

Your welcome. Credit has to be given to the source, @macbwt.
