The module programming or AsBuilt data is different for 2015+ Edge & 2016+ MKX. They now follow the newer Ford "system", so they are similar to 2013+ Fusion, 2015+ F150, 2016+ Explorer... Etc. These are the ADB values for 2015+ Edge: BdyCM 726-41-02 0001 0000 0071 (Double Honk Enabled, Default) BdyCM 726-41-02 0000 0000 0070 (Double Honk Disabled) # 4th/12th digit number is 1: double honk enabled # 4th/12th digit number is 0: double honk disabled

The compass in the MFT screen represents a ball compass, like what Akirby stated, it is correct. See the below video & see how when the car is pointing South & turns to the right (West) the compass turns the the other way to indicate the correct direction (East). The directions on the compass are located in the correct positionfor a ball compass. https://youtu.be/r7DPEskWlrk

I don'thave an iPhone but with my HTC 10 messages are received & read out on MFT version 3.10. Also the envelope icon does appear, but it is actually a notification of unread messages, so once they are read it goes away.

Just remember that the fans are different between models with & without the factory towing package. Also models with the towing package have 2 relays instead of one.
-
This look like fins to cause air turbulence, or maybe since the air is actually coming from the Turbos, they are meant to correct some turbulence due to the air coming from a high speed compressor.
-
The 2011 MKX also opens the VISTA shades & vents the glass. Which I can disable it & only keep the windows.
-
Something to also consider with selection of the Edge: Memory seats are only available in Limited & Sport models. Very useful if 2 drive the car.
-
Do you mean the fans keep running for ~10 seconds after the engine is shut off? I am not sure that any Edge generation does this, the 2011-2014 definitely doesn't. If that is the case, hopefully someone with a 2007 will chime in to confirm. It might be an electrical issue or a bad Relay causing the fan to remain on.

Highway miles will definitely be worse, especially if you go with AWD. If you don't need AWD, then by all means skip it. It adds weight & means you extra stuff to worry about failing (PTU). The Limited is the only Edge that had factory HID option, so if it's only the wood you don't like, you can cover it up. Also, consider the MKX, they are basically a more luxurious version of the Edge but with the 3.7L engine. Since it's Lincoln, depreciation would be higher so you can get one at a price close to the Edge, and they have a longer warranty period.

Aftermarket should work if they are specified for your year, like the ones & linked to in my above post.

I can't say, I don't have a definite answer. My guess is that OEM 2011 specific sensors wouldn't work on your 2007.

Dual Climate Control Repair
omar302 replied to finzup's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
The display on the main screen is for outside temperature. Since the outside temp was 76 & your set temp was 74, I am more inclined to thing that the cabin's actual temp was near or a little below 74 & hence the hot air at the beginning. The system determines the cabin temp from a sensor behind the dash at the driver's right knee location, the area that has a small cent opening. -
2007 models used band style sensors. 2011+ use stem mounted sensors. Though they work on the same frequencies, they are different. Found an eBay listing for aftermarket replacements for the 2007 that changes them from band style to stem mounted, but the compatibility list doesn't show any new models, leaving me to believe they don't interchange.

Cruise control in hilly/mountain roads will reduce your fuel economy. From Edmunds:

It has been a while now, but Ford apparently decided to NOT offer the updates on the website, so regardless of the current version you have, it will always show that you have the latest. You have to go to a dealer for the official updates.

From the owner's manual:

This should mean to calibrate the compass, for some reason it is entering calibration mode. Don't remember reading on this before, try disconnecting the battery for about 10 minutes to reset the electronics, it may just sort it out. Also could be something causing the compass to go out of calibration, like magnet, though I am not sure were is the compass located, maybe on or behind the rear view mirror.

13N02 - Extended Warranty Coverage on Brake Booster
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
I just checked the program, it is clear as I suggested, the one-time repair under this program should be done after expiry of the original warranty: -
13N02 - Extended Warranty Coverage on Brake Booster
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
If were to try and find a workaround, I'd check if the previous replacement was done during the original 3/36 bumper to bumper warranty, if it was, then I'd argue that the 1st replacement was supposed to be covered by the original warranty & that this replacement would be the 1st under the extended warranty. -
LED vs HID headlights

You driver's light could be out due to a fuse, the left & right lights are wired to separate fuses. In the passenger compartment fuse panel: Fuse# 16 for right low beam Fuse# 17 for left low beam -
What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
omar302 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Today I disconnected the battery to reset the electronics, since I live in an apartment & my car is in a shared parking lot, I manually locked the doors. When I returned & tried to open the door with the emergency key but it did not unlock!! It needed some WD-40 to get it to unlock, thankfully I was at home & not out in a real emergency that required the key! Moral of the story, check your door lock with the key as nowadays keys are rarely used.
