What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
omar302 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Hit a curb with the rear right tire while turning and damaged the tire. Immediately got a low tire pressure warning. Installed the donut spare and used the vehicle for approximately half a day till I got a replacement tire. What was interesting is that although I did not get an AWD off warning in the instrument cluster, the Edge was actually running FWD only. As it should as per the owners manual. I confirmed that with the AWD Guage and how easily traction control would come on. And the Torque Steer. Can't imagine how 2015 FWD Sports are driving daily like that. -
I found the installation manual. The shock sensor adjustment is on the VSS module itself. It also shows where it should be mounted. VSS_-_Alarm_-_Ford_-_2016_thru_2017_Edge.pdf

The perimeter+ is not installed factory, even though it is an approved Ford part. Do the actual install location might differ. If I recall correctly, the recommended location is strapped to a steel bar that can be accessed behind the left drawer/fuse cover. The one near the driver's left knee. Pull out the drawer and look inside towards the center of the vehicle.

check engine Check Engine Light w/ABS or Traction Ctrl
omar302 replied to Sunnyorlando's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I believe the first question is what code or codes were present before you had it reset? -
Only if the vehicle still has a running warranty. Original bumper to bumper warranty, Powertrain Warranty or an Extended warranty. Otherwise no.

There was a Special Service Message 44354. "2011-2013 Edge, Explorer, MKX, Taurus, MKT and FLEX - 3.5L/3.7L (Ti-VCT) - Oil in the Air Intake. Some 2011-2013 with 3.5l or 3.&L variable cam timing engine built on or before 3/31/2012 may exhibit engine oil in the air systems may be caused by an accumulation of oil in the left hand valve coverbaffle migrating through the fresh air intake carnkcase ventilation (PCV) system. Oil on the ir flter or oil at the electrocnic throttle body may also be observed. Valve cover BR#Z-6582-M has been released to resolve this concern. Residual oil in the intake air system damage and can be removed using a clean rag. Use available service labor times for left hand valve cover repairs. EFFECTIVE DATE: 13-JAN-2014". There might be a more clear documentation out there, but this is what i found quickly.

Check this thread where a member with a 2016 Edge replaced his factory HID light with LED. -
Adding Adaptive suspension to my ST
omar302 replied to johnmarkp's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Reading the System Operation & Component Description, it is interesting to know that even the fuel level is considered in the Adaptive Suspension calculations. -
Adding Adaptive suspension to my ST
omar302 replied to johnmarkp's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
You will also need the module that'll control the adaptive dampers and ride hight sensors for each corner. Shocks alone would not be "adaptive" without the software controlling them. -
Windshield Replacement
omar302 replied to 1004ron's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
If you have the Lane Keep Assist/ Warning, then it should need calibration, ForScan can do it. The only other thing I can think of is to make sure the replacement windshield is with the sound insulation like the original. Some replacements are regular laminated without the extra sound insulation. -
My guess is it should disable it. However, I don't recall reading of the issue occurring on Gen 2 Edges (faulty door latches).
-
When a door ajar the active noise cancelation (ANC) is disabled. So you can test it quickly by just opening a door slightly, for the door ajar warning to come on, and if the noise is from ANC it should disappear/change immediately.

Ford's powertrain warranty is 5 years or 60K miles, whichever occurs first.

Adaptive Cruise and brake lights?
omar302 replied to dabangsta's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
My 2016 Edge Sport that does Not have stop and go would usually disengage ACC at nearly zero speed before letting go of the brakes. I'll try to make a video of it next time. -
Adaptive Cruise and brake lights?
omar302 replied to dabangsta's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I thought in 2019+ models Ford added Stop & Go and that the ACC worked till 0. -
I am not sure if anyone tried it on an Edge, but I'd guess the fog lights acting as "cornering lights" should work. You can try the changes as per the 2015-2020 F-150 sheet. For the Fuel range on the right screen, I fairly confident it is not easily done. If it is possible, it will at least involve a firmware upgrade. You'll first need to check if the hardware is the same, then find the firware files for a new Edge ST and flash it on your 2020 ST.

Group 65 Battery in 2nd Gen Possible?
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in 2015+ Edge & MKX Generation II
I eventually got a locally made H6 battery. Half the price of MotorCraft's BXT65. -
2020 SEL AWD RDU Fluid - Redline lightweight Shockproof work?
omar302 replied to lildisco's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
If I'm not mistaken, the previous generation issues were from the PTU. RDU failures are rare. As for @JGN12 point on maximum maintenance life, comparing vehicles (Ford) to other complex systems (including aeronautical), the difference lies, in my opinion, in designed service life. Planes & helicopters I believe are designed to serve a much longer life than automobiles. -
2020 SEL AWD RDU Fluid - Redline lightweight Shockproof work?
omar302 replied to lildisco's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
Looking how Ford's oil is specific to this application, I wouldn't recommend using a "regular" gear oil in its place. Link to Motorcraft page for this oil. It also states "Do not use in conventional high-offset hypoid gear axles where SAE 75W-85, 75W-90, 80W-90 or 75W-140 is recommended". -
What to turn off in automatic carwash, 2018 Titanium
omar302 replied to Summers22's topic in 2017-2018 Edge & MKX
Only the automatic wipers. The only warnings I would get are for the parking sensors. -
So, I got some screenshots from ForScan to show where to program the rear Axle Code (Automatic Torque Coupling (ATC) Configuration). It is under PCM "Module Configuration".

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
omar302 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
There is no extensive sheet for the Edge, only some personal (small) sheets and mods all over this thread (edit: and this thread). However, the 2015-2020 F-150, 2016-2019 Explorer and 2013+ Fusion sheets are mostly applicable to 2015+ Edges. Though I am not sure for newer Edges with Sync4A if it is still applies or not. -
2007-2015 Edge, MKX low brake pedal simple fix
omar302 replied to enigma-2's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Thanks. However, the title should be changed to 2014 as the 2015 Edge is completely different. The 2015 MKX is similar though.
