What are these “SUPPOSED” to plug into?
enigma-2 replied to glamisridr's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Difficult to figure out based on your weak description. From what little you gave, left of the steering wheel, behind a panel, I'd guess you were looking at the cabin fuse panel. -

If your using the mobile version, switch to the "full version" at the bottom. In the full version, click on "more reply opions", then click on "choose file", browse & select the picture, then click "attack this file". -
Don't you weaken the spark when you gap plugs too small?

extended warranty need help!
enigma-2 replied to kowgurl98's topic in Dealership & Vendor Experiences
A lot can fail in 8 years. You could aways go with a warranty that covered less. Premium Care covers over 1000 different items. Extra Care covers the important parts, engine, transmission, PTU, etc. and costs a lot less. (My 09 is currently under a Extra Care.) -
Weak battery?

Squealing, whirling or clicking noise under hood on long trips
enigma-2 replied to EdgeMeNow's topic in 2017-2018 Edge & MKX
I'm not expert, but my first suspicion would be either a wheel bearing where the seal has broke, allowing water to get into the to the bearing and cause it to go bad; or a bad carrier bearing on the right front driveshaft. -
We had it on a rental in Seattle last year. After a few minutes I never noticed it. Try a test drive, doubt you would find it objectionable.

Check tire pressure?

It's not just liberals. I keep looking for 666 on his forehead. In a different country, or time, he would take power completely. And I see him trying to do now. I held my nose and voted for him, but he's a loose cannon without real morals (or understanding of what he's doing). He's like a child who's been handed a gun on a playground. He's attacks on Canada and NATO are not supportive in any way. His love of Russia goes back years. Some say they had something on him from over a decade ago. Something involving a prostitute and what happened to her. (A friend of his that has since stopped talking). Russia is a real threat to our democracy. (This is shared by both sides of the house and Senate). And they are continuing to spy even today. (Look at the news of what they did just last week). Just a little too cozy for my satisfaction. I hate to say it, as I really, really, really, really hate VP Pence. (And I'm from indiana). But I think he would make a better president. Trump is inexperienced, insecure, comprised and a spoiled brat grown up. And he will never change (as I had hoped). I respect your opinion and hope for the best, but I cannot agree.

Still leaking or all good?

Help! Master Cylinder replacement part.
enigma-2 replied to jimnkirstin's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
May use different master cylinders based on Edge models, engineering size, etc.. In looking up your car, the cylinder is listed separately from the reservoir. Here's what's listed for thr 2012 Edge Sport with the 3.7L engine. https://www.oemfordpart.com/auto-parts/2012/ford/edge/sport-trim/3-7l-v6-gas-engine/brakes-cat/hydraulic-system-scat -
I agree with akirby, try disconnecting the battery for twenty minutes. See if the SJB resets.

My 09 mkx has them. Used for attaching a tow bar.

Failure of downloading PDF files
enigma-2 replied to EDST777's topic in Forum Help & Site Suggestions
Eh, is it me or does the woman in the top center pic on the attachment have extra parts.......? Anyway, I've found that when I run into this problem, its usually because the PDF's have been removed on the server side. -
Ford's aftermarket srp is $345 ($375 installed) for bi-directional and $303 ($332 installed) for one-way. May have to add for hood switch or extra remote.

2012 all wheel drive Ford Edge Limited PTU fluid
enigma-2 replied to Bconley3's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
My dealer's service technician recommended 36k (every three years). Service manager thought 30k was sufficient. If you have 90k on yours, take a look at the seals. Dealer found mine leaking at an oil change; around that time. Said they could change the seal for $450. (I ok'ed but they changed the unit when they discovered I had an extended warranty). One point to consider is an extended warranty would cost less that a new unit. Service manual states if the fluid looks black, it's still ok. So if you do change your own, don't panic when you see its color. -
Looks like a retainer to hold the bulb assembly in alignment. Perhaps may have been knocked loose during bulb replacement. (Or its a manufacturing defect). It will probably take a assembly replacement, but because of the cost, I'd try a fix first. If it were me, I'd drill a small hole in the top or bottom of the front assembly (out of the optical path) and use a piece of coat hanger (perhaps put a 90°bend at the end, 3/16" long) and work the ring back into position. Then seal the hole with clear sylicone.

I live in northern Indiana and we get a fair amount of snow in the winter. To be homest, the roads are kept clear most of the time, clear roads or plowed roads. I have AWD and will be retiring in October. No worries about the AWD. Had a new unit put in under extended warranty but even if it fails after current ext warranty expires, it's still only ~$1700 to replace it.

To me, it sounds like the starter stays engaged after the engine starts. As the starter is controlled by the ECM and there are several sensors telling the ECM when the engine starts, I wonder if the ECM is telling the starter to stop but the starter pnion is sticking.

I use a Bluetooth code reader and ForScan (on my Android) to read individual tire pressures while driving.

I've found that the maps are always out-of-date to some degree. I usually use Google Maps in my phone as a backup when looking for a specific place.
