I believe that he was referring to an eBay listing for the liftgate lock assembly. There's plenty of Chinese garbage offered, I'd recommend OEM. Here one possible part you could consider: https://ebay.us/m/1QJGBD

One possible guess is the vehicle battery is getting weak.

It's a Ford. You won't have to wait too long. 🙂

Humorous reply ... Where is my electric power steering fluid going? | BobIsTheOilGuy https://share.google/LbSSQkFySXCiwDRle

Couldn't agree more. Ford's PTU fluid is probably the best for the unit. Anything less may turn thick under so much heat. I did some research a few years ago and believe that Ford is using US Lubricants, 300 Waylube. This lubricant is the best money can buy (which is why Ford charges so much.)

Look over the factory parts diagrams. The last diagram shows the speaker locations. Sound System for 2019 Ford Edge | OEM Parts Online https://share.google/73Lckd6xB1NCJU1IQ

I'll attach the 2008 remote start instructions. May help to pinpoint the components (as well as determining where the problems lies.) (BTW, did you try to hold the remote start button, for a few seconds? It can also be set to double press.) Car locked, all windows up. Hood closed, battery charged.

Yeaaaaa. Wonder how many Piglins he had to distract?

Why not just fix it? They always brake at the same place, simple wiring repair.

One easy (if not drawn out) method is to hook a ammeter across the battery positive lead and wait until the draw begins. Then start to withdrawal fuses, at the power fuse box in the engine compartment, one at a time. If the draw stops, you may have found the circuit (you'll need to wait until the next parasitic draw begins in 90 seconds to see if drawing out that particular fuse stops the drawl. These can be wierd. I remember one draw was found at a rear wiper. The gears had broken and not allowed the wiper blade to park. Every few minutes the wiper module turnd on to check if all of the wipers are parked. When checking the rear wiper, it found it wasn't parked and attempted for 15 seconds, to park it. Then parked or not, its programmed to stop and begin a timed wait cycle again. 15 seconds, hour after hour, the draw added up (after a few days.)

I'd imagine the 'h' version will work just fine. (Often these changes are made to save costs.) The vendor was probably caught with these old stock and selling at cost to get rid of them.

Easy enough to find out. 😁

After thinking about it, it seems unusual that both sides would misbehaving at the same time. More likely that a connector has some green crusties causing the problem. I think a quick check of the connector at the lighting module might be worth ruling out.

I'd think a failing PTU causing this noise is possible, but a little unusual. I read in a different forum where a wobbling sound from the PTU was traced to excessive play in the pinion bearing (where the driveshaft connects.) Q. Have you done PTU fluid changes? Q2. You've got a 2012, right?

Tires can cause this. Cupped, under pressure, defects. Check pressure, look for uneven wear, balance, try rotating and see if the sound changes (front to back.) Other than that, I'd look at the bearings.

First have you read this post: 2012 Ford Edge Ambient Lighting Issue - Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers - Ford Edge Forum https://share.google/WL7F8CNTqRp3sXS0k Other than that, the Ford p/n CL8Z-13E700-AA is shown as discontinued. (?)

Perhaps this may help

Ever figure out how to get the hands free liftgate working? Personally I'm happy with my foot-free liftgate; but I'd be pissed if a H.F. came on my car and didn't work.

Oh man, sorry you had such bad luck. ($500 for transmission fluid change...? Outch.) Anyway, best of luck on your new Subaru Forester. Great car, bet you love it. BTW, this could still be a domestic. If I'm not mistaken, some Foresters are still made in Lafayette, Indiana. (As well as in Gunma, Japan.) P.S. I've heard other similar stories about these aftermarket warranties. While my MKX was below 125k miles iv always carried a OEM warranty on it. Got most or more than what I paid a couple of them. A new PTU plus several smaller (but ridiculously priced) repairs. One repair one warranty cost them over $300 for a vacuum hose....! Semper Fi .

I believe so. I plugged in your VIN at the Ford website and thats the p/n that was returned. Picture looks the same as what you posted. Too soon for a TPMS battery to die. Why are you needing just one sensor.?

If you are talking about a 2023 Edge, Ford lists the part as: Part #: TPMS35 (F2GZ1A189A) MSRP: $83.62 (local dealer price is $60.25 ea.)

On my 09 MKX, the visor slides left and right. (Covers the whole drivers side window.) Or are you talking about the height of the visor? If so, maybe something like this on those days when needed: https://a.co/d/fEO98jM .

Usually the coils fail due to not changing the plugs by 90k.(Go too long on plugs, the gaps get too wide, they will cause them to draw too much current and that extra current causes the coils to over heat. And fail.) As you change below the recommended maintenance specification, should last for a long, long time. The most common failure isn't the coils themselves, rather the rubber boots harden, start to crack and leak spark.
