I've been having the same issues as those above have described.  On eBay, I found a panel for 2012 Edge SEL for our 2012 Limited.  It fits 100% and works.   The single cable plug and attachment points are identical.  Not the shiny black panel;  obviously it looks different but it still looks good... most importantly no ghosting functions. I'd rather pay $105 versus all the other much higher costs for the original look and same age part.  Also, although I suspect the technology may be the same as the original failing "Limited" panel, I'm hoping the different "button" style has fewer if no issues in the future.  Good luck and thanks for all the posts.

What is the part number for the SEL panel?

My husband did what you did and it fixed the problem! thank you!

Did you remove the panel first and apply the heat to the actual switch, or did you leave the panel on and apply the heat directly to the face of the panel?

I had this problem and going with the theory that the air in between the plastic that covers the round pad censors on the FICM, was causing it to read being pushed up or down. I took a heat gun to the pads and kind of melted it back in place. It works great now! Hope this helps everyone out.

I have a 2012 Edge and need to drop the headliner so I can fix the sunroof motor. But there are so many trim panels I don't know where to start and I don't want to break anything. Can someone please help?

I just bought a 2012 Edge and I'm very frustrated with Ford! When you buy the car you hear 'remote start' and 'climate settings' and I can see theheated seat settings in the left menu. But then to learn that someone at Ford decided that it would only work at freezing or lower -- that's ridiculous. I live in Sacramento and the temp often gets down to 35F. Where I'm from that's friggen cold and I want my butt warmed up. I can choose from about 7 different colors for the interior "mood lights", but I can't configure the temp to have the seat heaters come on? Come on!
