Did you leave the car untouched for approximately 8 hours? This is required to reset the battery management system (or whatever it was called). If you did leave the car for 8+ hours untouched, make sure the battery terminals are connected correctly and that there are no loose connections.

13M01 - Middle East PTU Extended Warranty
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
I'd say check with the Consumer Protection Department in Dubai. https://ded.abudhabi.ae/en/consumer-protection I googled their number & this is what I found: 04 2954000 Edit: Make sure to highlight that the failed part is originally a non-serviceable part (lubed for life). So regardless of Maintenance (done or skipped) it would not affect the PTU, and that the whole reason of this extended warranty is to replace it with a new one that can be maintained. -
Clogged air conditioning
omar302 replied to fprodromides's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
This might be a little obvious, but just in case, after unplugging the tube, which side did you try to unclog? The piece going down to under the car or to the side back to the condenser? If you only did bottom portion maybe there is a lot of junk still coming from the condenser that wasn't cleaned causing the clogging to repeat. -
13N02 - Extended Warranty Coverage on Brake Booster
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
The ETIS website shows build date in non-US format, so it DD.MM.YYYY I just checked again now & the 13N02 re-appeared under "Outstanding Field Service Actions". -
2016 Edge Parking Sensors False Alarm
omar302 replied to luxpow's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
The side obstacle detection on newer Fords works by estimating the distance of an obstacle after it was detected by the front/rear side sensors. In other words, if you are parked & a stroller or a karts comes from the side at a door, the sensors will not detect it. Only if the car was moving & the front side sensors detected it, then it will estimate how close this object is to the side of the car as you move on. That's the reason why in the owners manual, "Side Sensing System", it states the following: Ok, so what I mean, if the vehicle suddenly detects something from the side, as you explained, while stopped at the light, I'd say it is a module issue, not simple wiring and/or moisture on the sensors. Take it to the dealer. -
I think that's an acceptable tradeoff for the price you pay & the features you get, unless they affect the performance/operation of the car. Want better quality in the areas you don't see? Maybe check a German Luxury car or a Lexus. You can't have the same quality & features at a reduced price without tradeoffs.

I don't know if all scanners can show it, but some do. -
13M01 - Middle East PTU Extended Warranty
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
Unfortunately that's a tactic used by many dealers, especially in our region. Explain to them that regardless of service, the original PTU does not have any service requirement. So any missed schedule would not have affected the PTU, hence it should still remain covered by the extended warranty. If it fails, try to contact Ford Middle East customer support by phone. If it also fails to get positive results, then complain to the consumer protection agency or whatever it is called in UAE/Dubai. -
BRR-241 and BRRF-101 Brake Rotors
omar302 replied to ythen57's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I remember that on earlier Edges, FWD models had smaller brakes compared to AWD. -
The BMS relearn process, if not using a tool, "takes approximately 8 hours for the Body Control Module (BCM) to learn the new battery state of charge. During this 8 hour period, the vehicle must be undisturbed, with no doors opened or keyless entry button presses. If the vehicle is used before the BCM is allowed to learn the new battery state of charge, engine off load shedding can still occur and a message may be displayed."

If the Airbag light is not coming on, I'd suggest checking for trouble codes before attempting a fix. -
The TSB does list both 6F55 & 6F50. But it is only for those built between May 4, 2009 and April 15, 2015.

Question for Todd, Our Ford Service Rep.
omar302 replied to Larry's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
The 13N02 program covers Edge/MKX vehicle built between May 3, 2010 through March 28, 2013. So a 2008 model would not be covered. I'd suggest fixing it ASAP on your cost, for your safety, and keep the receipts so that in case another program pops up that covers you vehicle you'd then be able to claim a refund. -
Jason, a member here, has a website that offers a way to disable the double honk, but it involves requesting a dealer to install/update a file using dealer IDS equipment. This might be the better way. An alternative would be to use a free software called ForScan with a compatible OBD2 adapter & you can do it yourself. Now I don't recall reading anyone specifically with a 2015/2016 Edge who tried to disable the double Honk, but I would expect it would be the same as the 2016 Explorer. Edit: Just don't forget the usual disclaimers that making any changes to your vehicle will risk causing damage & voiding your warranty.

13N02 - Extended Warranty Coverage on Brake Booster
omar302 replied to omar302's topic in Recalls, TSBs & Warranty
Is you Edge's build date within the range included in the extended warranty? Does the owner letter you have specifically mentiones your vehicle VIN? If yes then it should be covered. Checking my MKX's VIN on the Ford ETIS currently shows no outstanding field service action while it usually showed the 13N02, so I'd say there system is not acting correctly now, hopefully they will sort it out soon. You can also try to contact the Ford Service rep on forum, maybe they can help. -
I also agree with you Nick. I tried adding HID a couple of time previously, even on projector based headlights, and although the 1st impressions were always like "wow, much brighter" they never gave the same level of "useful" illumination (light on the road I use) as factory HID or even as halogen mods (H9 bulbs in H11 housings, 9005 in 9006 housing or HIR/9011 in 9012/9005/9006 housings), and worst of all, any non-factory HID mods caused considerable glare/blinding to others drivers, which I also suffer from others. The blinding/glare, in my opinion, is so bad that I think there should be more action from authorities regarding vehicles with blinding headlights.

Center flow through console
omar302 replied to Tjm623's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I agree. Also the driver's dead pedal (foot rest) is short on the 2015+. It feels like newer Fords are designed less for big people. -
Bumper covers are not the same. 2007-2015 MKX has the license plate on the bumper while the 2007-2014 Edge on the rear hatch.

Looking for HACKS for my 2012 Ford Edge Limited
omar302 replied to MissAbunDance's topic in Welcome Forum!
For the camera, it usually means you need a new camera. Usually ~ $100/- & several members here changed it & posted very helpful how to with pictures. For the Nav, if yo have "Information" on the top right corner of the 8" dash display, then you don't have Nav or something messed up in the screen & most probably only a dealer will be able to fix it. If it tells something that the SD Card is not compatible, it would probably be because the MyFord Touch system was updated to a newer version that is not compatible with an old SD Card. Check what version is written on the card, I believe A7 is the latest & also make sure you update MyFord Touch to the latest verion. -
The "Fixed" guidelines are supposed to be there. If they are not coming, usually means the camera module need calibration/programming. A simple step any dealer should do easily or use the latest ForScan software.

I`d agree it is a dangerous situation, in my case it wasn't a sudden failure. It came slowly. There is an extended warranty for 2010-2013 models. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/13888-13n02-extended-warranty-coverage-on-brake-booster/

Check this post, maybe you could try to clean the camera first.
