Well, I had to put in a new latch. I had the fuses out of positions 9 and 10 in the driver's side interior fuse box in order to keep my interior and puddle lights from staying on when the latch wasn't working properly. I put them back in and the interior lights all work but I have mysteriously lost my puddle lights. Any ideas? I love my puddle lights...

Well, I tried everything so now I am replacing the latch (it came in today). The door panel comes off easy, but the inner black panel is not so easy. Anyone know how to remove this so I will not break anything?
Thanks.
it is in the latch mech. common issue with gm but have seen it in dodge and ford as well.

normally those sensors that trigger those are a plunger/pin sensor on the door. in the case of the Edge, on the inside front most portion of the door (towards the engine) there is a black arm that pushes into the door when closed. I "suspect" that arm actuates the plunger inside the door that works these sensors. That is where I would start. pull the door panel - piece of cake on the Edge - and inspect that area/wiring/etc and see what you can see as a start.
Now that the weather is better I was thinking of giving that a try. Nothing on the arm you speak of is corroded or in bad condition. I was suspecting that might be it, or there is a trigger of some sort in the latch mechanism. I wish I knew what to look for. I miss that old plunger now...

I have been having an intermittent problem with the driver's door of my '07 Edge SEL AWD indicating that it is ajar (warning and interior lights on) when it is not. In order for it to quit, I have to either VERY firmly close the door (slam it more or less which I hate) or open and close it a few times until it senses that it is in fact fully closed. It just started this this winter. My Edge is out of warranty, but is VERY well maintained. Any tips or suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have been wondering this myself and have the same concerns as you. My wife messed up mine, and I would get a new one, but for the price I have just thought of removing it. Can you chime in on how it has been doing without it so far?

My 07 SEL+ sounds the same. It goes away after awhile. Hope its nothing to worry about.
Yea, me too. Even though it may void the warranty, for the next oil change interval I might try 30w instead to see if that helps. It will flow just as good but the thicker oil may offer more film protection.

My 2007 Edge SEL AWD with 3500 miles (just got it about 3 months ago) seems to have what I think to be excessive valvetrain noise after starting it cold. Now I am pretty sure that the 3.5 has direct acting "bucket" tappets (cams act directly on valves though a "bucket" style tappet that fits over the valve/valve spring) which is a mechanical system unlike the roller follower/hydraulic lifter arrangement on the V8 Modular motors and the old 2.3 Lima 4cyl so it will be more noisy by virtue of the design. But, this seems noiser than it should be when cold. Not the typical "sewing machine" sound as when warm. Now the 2.3 Duratec/MZR 4cyl in my wife's old Mazda 3 and my Mazdaspeed 3 has some more noise on cold starts/conditions, and that engine has a similar valvetrain, but not as noisy as this.
Is this typical for the Edge and this engine? I am using 5w20 synthetic, but it did it with the stock oil as well.
Thanks.

I need to know the best place to tap into the rear speaker wired on my 2007 Edge SEL with the Audiophile system and what color the wires are in order to have high-level inputs for my amplified Bazooka Tube.
Thanks.
