Finally Fixed I just went outside all frustrated as I was thinking I got a bad fan or just bad deal on my Forde Edge. I pulled my Edge out of the Garage shut it off and then as I read above the not OEM part you gotto shove the connector into the fan assembly even if it doesn't snap so I shove it in there as hard as I could since it felt like it already couldnt connect anymore. Anyways I shoved it in which I doubt wasnt but a millimeter I would say and funny thing when I turned on the truck I was frustrated and shut it off and to my surprise I heard the fans on and I was like whaaaaaaa..... I couldnt hear the fans with the motor on. After shoving the plug in as hard as I could I could not believe it... the SOB worked... the Dorman fan model is 621-392. Fans blowing hard as heck right now. I will tell you these if you want to just avoid the hassle like me, slip off the top hose and raise it up. You will no drip much coolant at all and you will avoid about an hours worth trying to wedge the fan in. I thank you for your PDF instructions but the Dorman has a raised heat guard that does not allow it to slip in by about a cm. I went under the Edge and saw what it was being snapped onto. Tried it everyway that I could and just decided to take off the top left Radiator hose and like I said it slipped right it which could have saved me almost an hours worth of sweat and hassle. I followed everything except for that. Thank you good people for your posts and will keep you updated on the new fan if any problems.

If I can add something here. I followed everything as instructed except if you buy a dorman, I had to disconnect the top left hose on radiator. Not doing so made it hell since the heat guard on the AC fan is lifted off the assembly and cannot fit by about half a cm. I decided to take the top left hose off and raised it and the fan assembly slipped in like a baby. To add to this, the new Dorman fan for my Ford Edge 2008 wont turn on. I do get 12 v on the connector. Is the control module the one it hooks on that comes with the assembly or is it different. I am looking at Oreilly's and the fan control module looks nothing like anything on the old or new fan assembly,
