  1. SOLD These LED Tail Lights fit a 2011-2014 Ford Edge. My Ford Edge is going back to Ford under the lemon law. I installed a set of high quality LED tail lights from Drive Bright (formerly Daytime Bright Lights), right after I bought the car. I don’t want these beautiful lights going to Ford, so I am selling them. The lights retail new for almost $300 per pair. My nicely cared for used lights can be yours for $150, plus shipping. These are the standard non-smoked lights. They do not include the optional reverse and turn signal LED bulbs. I guarantee these lights to operate or I will gladly refund your money.
  2. Thanks. I'm embarrassed to ask, but what is the component in the photo, and where is it located? BTW, according to the paperwork from Ford, the fault code for my issue is P188B.
  3. Interesting, thank for the info. I have the car back now from Ford. Can you tell me what the PTU temp sensor & cable looks like?
  4. The warning light is the wrench light telling me to check the AWD system. My Edge has been at the Ford dealer for 9 days now and they still can't figure out the cause. The light was on when I dropped it off and they were able to retrieve a code, but they have hit some sort of dead end. Frankly I don't have much faith in them. My service advisor claims they have done all of the diagnostics that they can do, they have submitted the issue to Ford engineers. I'll be picking my car up today, I plan on contacting Ford directly. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue.
  5. I own a 2014 Edge with AWD. I bought it new in 2015. I have had an intermittently problem for the last two years. Every now and then the amber wrench light will illuminate on the dash, indicating a problem with the AWD system. I’ve never noticed any type of system malfunction, only the warning light. Our local Ford dealer has looked at it time and again, but they can not figure out the cause of the warning light. They claim the drivetrain checks out ok. They submitted the issue to Ford, but Ford isn’t aware of any issues. I’d like to get this taken care of while my drivetrain warranty is still in effect. Has anyone here with an AWD Edge had this issue? Thanks.
  6. In my search to find a nice cargo security screen that’s better than the junk that Ford sells, I came across this one that ships from China. Anybody have one of these? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/High-quality-Rear-Cargo-privacy-Cover-Trunk-Screen-for-audi-Q5-2009-2010-2011-2012-2013/2047474073.html
  7. Ok thanks. Is there a trick to removing the lens cover?
  8. Has anyone attempted to replace the OE vanity mirror light bulbs with LED’s? I’m not sure if the lens cap can be easily removed and Dan of Drive Bright doesn’t stock LED’s for them. My wife has a habit of leaving the mirror open, which of course leaves the light on. She killed two batteries in our last car before I replaced the lights with LED’s. No dead batteries after that.
  9. Dan, Thanks again for being such a stand up guy. I wish all merchants treated their customers the way you do. Craig
  10. Pics below. I took my Edge for a drive last night to test the HID's....what an amazing difference! No trick at all to installing the HID’s. Dan’s video is a huge help. I was able to install them without removing the air intake as Dan suggested. Since I didn’t experience any voltage fluctuations or flickering of the HID bulbs, I didn’t need to install the optional battery harness. It was pretty much plug and play, with the exception of the OE bulb dust cover modification. I did discover a problem however. When the headlights are on, the turn signals develop a hyper flash. This only happens when the headlights are on for some strange reason. Doing a search in the forum, I found others that have experienced the same issue. I called Dan, he says this only happens to about 10% of his Edge customers. Of course I would be one of them! Dan is going to send me a free set of resistors that should fix the problem. Until then, replacing the front signal LED’s with the OE bulbs is a temporary fix
  11. Well I finally finished all of my Daytime Bright Light mods. I guess you could say I went a little crazy, I installed the LED DRL's, the LED puddle lights, the LED tail lights and the HID headlights. I also replaced the front and rear turn signals as well as the backup lights with LED's. Dan's LED's replacement bulbs are the highest quality I've ever seen. I plan on buying more to outfit my Toyota Tacoma. Dan said he can get me any size light I need. As noted in an earlier thread, I had issues with the fitment of the original set of puddle lights Dan sent me. The newly designed puddle lights he subsequently sent did the trick. The HID's were very easy to install thanks to Dan's awesome installation video. My install was even easier than the video, as I did it without removing the air intake. I was also lucky in that the HID return wire was in the correct position on my first attempt - no side shadows. The LED tail lights were a piece of cake, took me about 15 minutes. I spent some cash on these mods, but I absolutely LOVE the results. I plan on replacing the dome/map lights next, then I'm done!
  12. Darn, I was afraid of that. I always thought the Edge's chrome wheels looked nice. The day after I picked up our new Edge, I realized they are not chrome wheels at all, but plastic wheel covers. I'm in the middle of doing all of the LED & HID light upgrades from Drive Bright. When I'm done, I'll try and convince my wife to let me buy some new wheels. It's actually her car, so I gotta keep her in the loop, especially since I ordered all of the light mods without her knowledge, LOL!
  13. I assume you're referring to me so I should resent your remark, but it's just an unsubstantiated remark from another "random person" on the Internet. I sincerely regret my decision to try and warn people of this forum about Sunrise Ford’s customer service. There apparently are some forum members that are ready to pounce on others simply because they would have approached the situation differently. I should have realized those people don't need warnings - they know it all already. For the rest of you, I would be remiss if I did not post the results of my final resolution with Sunrise Ford. I wrote a letter to Ford Customer Relations in Michigan. They did not bother to reply. This was disappointing, so I decided to turn to the Better Business Bureau. Although Sunrise Ford has had many BBB complaints, they enjoy an A+ BBB rating for resolving their BBB complaints. I filed a BBB complaint hoping they would continue with that trend. Thanks to my BBB complaint, Sunrise Ford ultimately offered to refund my credit card for the ESP purchase, something they initially claimed was impossible to do. They of course deducted the shortage of my payoff, but I'm ok with that at this point. I wasn't out to rip anyone off, I just felt I was treated unfairly and I wasn't going away without a fight. Feel free to visit the BBB website if some of you feel this is a random post with no merit. My complaint is public record. I am glad it is all behind me now, as I love my new Edge. This will be my final post on this topic.
  14. Yeah, the lights he sent me are totally different, as you can see. I'm sure the revised lights he sends me will work better. I seem to be having a real run of bad luck lately. Everything from the purchase of my new Edge to the puddle lights. Well you can now add the Drive Bright DRL's to that list. I followed Dave's step by step installation video via my iPad as I installed the DRL's this morning. I finally got to the exciting moment when I reconnected the battery and tested everything, and...............no DRL's. I tested all of my connections and found that I had power going into the DRL controller box, but none coming out. If I knocked on the box the lights would flicker, but that was it. I called Dave and he had me do a couple of tests as well, but in the end, it seems I have a bad controller box. Go figure... Dave was very apologetic again and has a new box on it's way out to me already. As said, a real stand up guy.
