There should be a button on the overhead console that will kill the vast majority of the lights. I'm not sure if it will reset after the car is turned off for an extended period of time. I forget exactly what it looks like. But it's towards the left side & maybe the 2nd button in from the left side.

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
lildisco replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Oil Life Monitor System said that the wife's Edge was at 31%. I usually try to do it earlier, but life has gotten in the way. Also drained the Catch Can & I'd guesstimate that about 3-4oz's came out. Also cleaned & power washed the ol Weber grill for this evening activities. It's amazing how much Grease (flavor) accumulates on it. -
System not shutting down

Headlights on? -
Thanks, but in my last post I already bought a plug & play harness & a Amp ?

Ended up going this route. It definitely made the sound more enjoyable & I can actually hear & feel the bass now. It's not like adding a sub or different head unit, but woke it up just enough to make it sound OK enough for a 'factory' system. Our 16 SEL is definitely still better. https://www.focusfanatics.com/threads/simple-focus-mk3-audio-upgrade.324097/

99% or more of edge owners don't mod them. It's not going to make companies money to do research & development for a platform that isn't very popular. Special_K has done a lot of research on the sport. Some mods can transfer over to the ST. In the mean time, check this thread out:

Yes, for a 2015 - 2018. Won't fit on a 2019+ https://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/23939-fresh-air-intake-mod/?do=findComment&comment=218239

Oil Life Monitoring System said I was below 50% (read 48%) on our 2020. Time to change it for a 2nd time (less than 7,000 total miles on the odometer). -
The 2020 is mine, so I back it in. The 2016 is hers & she pulls in.
-
This did a tone test & every speaker was working. Didn't see any place that had any audio settings that could be changed.
-
Yes, I've switched it to all occupancy mode or whatever they call it. Made a tiny difference.
-
Yes, I can fade the sound to the back & sides & there's audio out of each speaker. The door chime comes out of the front center speaker. The loaner 2020 SEL sounded like my wife's 2016 SEL which also has Nav. I'm thinking that it's the head unit itself not pushing out the needed wattage for the Mids & Lows.
-
I tried following that post, but it appears that they have a sub woofer in their F150's. I've tried some audio mods in FORScan, but little to no difference. My 2020 & the loaner 2020 were nearly identical, except for Co-pilot 360 & Navigation.
-
I have a 2020 SEL with Navigation. I have my wife's 2016 in for service & they gave me a 2020 SEL without Nav as a loaner. The sound is way better than mine. Neither has the sub in the back. Mine has barely any mid band or low band even with the settings for both nearly all the way up. I talked to the parts guy here at the dealership & he said that the loaner has a premium sound system (no woofer) & my mine has the mid sound system. I've already replaced the 'woofers' in all 4 doors & made 0 difference. I've done a little messing around in FORScan & it has made 0 difference, maybe a tiny tiny difference. A couple of people suggested just installing an Amp. I like the Sync 3 system, so I'd prefer to not loose that. Is there a way to improve the sound without much modification? Where would the Amp go? I've put sound systems in my older cars, but that required a new head unit, Amp & actual subs. I've tried Crutchfield, but they just list replacement parts & not a Amp for the 'normal' speakers. Thoughts?

Installed @Xtra's V2 intake, cleaned & lubed the brakes on all 4 corners & put on the summer rubber (chrome OEM 18's) on the wife's '16 SEL Fwd -
Little late, my daughter wouldn't stay asleep long enough for me to install (new born), but installed it this morning & install was relatively painless. Only 'issue' (if you want to call it that) is the hood takes more effort to close. Went for a short drive for lunch & things seem to be fine. I'll watch my intake air temps to see if they're lower than what they were before installing.
-
I had a package delivered from California today. Once my daughter is asleep, I'll try to install it on our 2016. If not tonight, it'll be tomorrow after work

Nice day in NE Ohio, so decided to throw the summer wheels on. Yes I know they're OEM 18's, but I haven't had good luck with aftermarket. I couldn't find OEM 19's or 20's I liked. -
Thought this was for 2019+? They made a kit to do this on the older gens with a modem included or something to that extent, but I think it was discontinued.

Oiled filters seem to be bad if they have extra oil on them. I've used my AFe Dry flow within a couple hundred miles of ownership on my 2020. While driving around with our baby in the back while mom was at target, got 35 mpg for 20 or so miles. I'm averaging around 26 mpg depending on traffic & winds (been pretty strong here lately) Your MAF should be located directly after air box on the tube. You'll have to push the connector down & 2 screws hold the MAF to the tube.

Alot of oil in Air charge tube 2017 2.0
lildisco replied to DrivingofftheEdge's topic in 2.0L EcoBoost
I get that smell from time to time. I believe that my smell is from the oil cap tube as that has a more direct access to the air than the other hoses. There's another can from JLT I believe & they also smelled. Turned out to be the hoses & they offer free replacements to people who purchased the kits from them. -

Do you remember how clean the intake was? Maybe it was residual stuff from prior to the catch can install? -

Time for a catch can & possible valve cleaning! Get some throttle body cleaner & go to town on the intake tube. -

everywhere I look the K&N VF2050 Cabin Air Filter is around ~$40. Not terrible, guess I'll wait for a coupon or a sale as I have around 6 months left before I need to change them out again. The weather stripping has gone up quite a bit in price as the driver side is ~$90 & the passenger side is ~$60. We'll see how the lower stripping holds up & then I'll look into replacing the arches if it gets too dirty back there.
