	What exactly is it doing? Have you tested for codes? If it's the radio, put it in tbe test mode and check the codes. (To enter test mode, put the radio in AM or FM, press the "right seek" and "eject" buttons at the same time. Hold until it recognizes the request then let go. The radio will go into the speaker all around text. It's loud so be prepared for it. Press "end test" and the radio will go into a mode allowing you to select which test to run on the acu and apim. Exit digonistics will show you what was found.) One other thing to suspect is your battery. Low voltage can cause all kinds of problems. Its not enough to just run a voltage test and say its ok. You must test the battery Cold Cranking Amperes capacity test (CCA). You need a battery that's strong enough to withstand starting without the voltage drop to a too low level. Any battety that tests below 50% of original CCA rating should be replaced. (Even if it still can start the car.) Reason is, the voltage drops too low to support the logic modules and they act like a computer that gets hit by a line spike. Also check for loose or corroded battery terminals.

				Ford Edge And Lincoln Nautilus Are Dead After 2023
enigma-2 replied to enigma-2's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
Stang is not close to Edge or Nautilus Never really liked it because wheelbase too short and too difficult to see behind when driving. (Last one I drove was the convertible and years ago, but left impression. Ended up buying the Sebring convertible instead). Wondering about the 3rd gen Edge & what changes gor 2023. So far no determination has been made, but still .... Article; https://fordtrend.com/2023-ford-edge/?amp - 
	NHTSA Campaign Number: 22T002000 Manufacturer Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations Components TIRES Potential Number of Units Affected 10,380 Summary. Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations (Bridgestone) is recalling certain Firestone Transforce HT, size LT275/70R18 with DOT code VN15TH71821and Transforce AT, size LT275/70R18 with DOT code VN15TR91821. The tires were manufactured with an incorrect inner liner compound, which could cause increased inner liner permeability or cracking, resulting in belt separation.

	You could try going to the Motorcraft website, enter your VIN and download the "as built" data file from there. https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt Or you could have your local dealer do it.

				Backup camera says "full view not available" ?
enigma-2 replied to Razrburn's topic in Owner Impressions
Seen this pop up in the truck forums when driver has rear camera turned on while driving. (Probably using aftermarket module or harness). He posted a pix and his text was right in the place where a car following behind would be. Some thought the idea was supposed to show contents in bed or trailer hitch, but not cars following. (?) He was advised to toggle through different camera views (2022 my or late 2021 with update). One response was from Ford who asked him for his info so they could look into it. I'd call your Concierre at your dealer and have him call Ford for an answer. Edit. Was talking to another about this, seems related to not being able to use the 360° all around view. If so, appears to definitely be a fault. - 
	This happened to me few years ago and an engine light. Definite gas smell in garage. Dealer tracked it to a split vacuum hose. Said it was on back side of engine (why it took so long to change. Under warranty so no charge). Tech told me they use a smoke machine to find leaks. They hook it up and watch where the smoke leaks out.

	Wow. Sounds like they had to pull a lot out of the way to get to the ground terminals. Give it to Rainman Ray and he'll have it done in ten minutes. lol

				2012 Ford Edge front end mystery noise
enigma-2 replied to Erock7625's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
They must really be bad if their making that much noise. Usually you get a "clunk" when (only) turning where the spring jumps from position to position instead of rotating smoothly with the strut mount. Kind of like creak, creak, thump type of sound. Yours made noise when going straight ahead or back. Sounds strange, but what the hay. And I agree, its somewhat automatic that you replace the strut mount anytime you replace the struts. - 
	
	
				3G retirement and Navigation issues
enigma-2 replied to TimothyFS's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Ford started changing over to 4G in certain 2018 my. Your 2020 has "should" have 4G but call your dealer (you'll need your VIN) or check your sticker to be certain. Its still possible they were still installing 3G.) Anyway, about to only thing its good for is using it to remote start via cell phone. (Required paid service). It does not effect Sync services that go through your cell phone, such as emergency services (auto call after an accident). (Unless you are still using an older 3G cellphone. If so, so carriers are turning off in February, Verizon at end of year). Ford has a program for free install (owners required to pay cost of new modem) for 4G modem (for 2016/17 m/y cars built between certain dates). For all others, they bear full cost if they want upgrade. (Dealer cost for modem is $238, forget billing hours for install cost). -

	He disappeared from the board back in Sept, 2017. Think he said he found them inside the passenger seat, in the seats' heating/cooling ducting. I can understand mice inside the engine compartment, but how do they get inside the cabin (unless you leave the doors open, i guess)?

				2012 Ford Edge front end mystery noise

Your car sounds loud, like exhaust noise. Have you checked your exhaust system for continuity? Maybe a exhaust component broke a weld and is flopping around? -

	Getting dumped on today, snowing an inch an hour, over sleet covered roads. Sliding all over the place. Tried to make a left hand turn and went into ditch. Pulled right out. All wheel drive worked extremely well. Never really got stuck, just continued to drive out. FWD would have gotten stuck. When car got into slide (which was all the time on these roads), the stability control system kicked in, slowed the car down automatically and pumped the wheel on the side sliding. Sounded, felt like the anti-lock brakes, only worked on one wheel. Then switched to a different wheel. Like a growling, vibration on the wheel affected. But it really worked well. Very impressive. Now if they only made it possible for IDIOTS to see through the snow-covered roads and drive in their lane instead of down the center of the road. Had to come to a compete stop twice, in my lane, while some Karen had to get wayyyyy over, into her lane, and give me a dirty look, as she passed, for making her get over. (snort). If it was any worse, I wouldn't have bothered to go out to get my Starbucks Grande, Cafe Mocha, today .... ?

	Wasn't aware that the DVD versions were not complete. Ugh. Can't even count on the pirates honesty any longer. Whats the world coming to? Anyway, it's the reason I showed him where he could buy hardcopy volumes 1 & 2 of the dealer service manuals. They look like they have been well used of course, but for $27 and free shipping doubt you'd find them any cheaper.

	Sounds to me like the seloniod is malfunctioning. I remember reading a simular problem where the shop looked at the seloniod and found where a mouse had decided to make the wiring near the rdu his meal. Caused an intermittent short.
