  1. Thanks, but nope, same error message and a search does not find thread.
  2. "You Do Not Have Permission" is the message I get when I try to view response to my post on "What is this green Wire" thread. Can't even find thread any longer, assuming due to this message. Makes no sense, generic thread, I posted to it, and now can't even see my own post. Anyone have an idea? I did write Admin.
  3. You may, and I say may, be able to have a decoupler installed. There are companies that make them for this purpose. Not sure if they make one for 2024 Edge, but I remember seeing them when I found out I couldn't flat tow a manual tranny Tacoma after dealer told me I could. That's a whole nother story....
  4. Doubt you will have a warranty problem. If it doesn't show visable abuse, then very hard not to warranty, unless they open it and find peanut butter or similar.
  5. Maybe contact the head manufacturer to ask them? They must have a clue where to start, or how to test wiring to find correct ones.
  6. People use to debadge the Hyundai Genesis when it first came out. Dealers pulled logos and put the "Wings" on it to as an upgrade charge. Funny how similar it is to Aston Martin. Great cars and they knew it, but they were embarrassed being a Hyundai. Now it's a badge of honor.
  7. Never noticed that. Do you have the part number?
  8. There is a tray you can put in there. It came on the earlier models such as 2021 and "should" fit your year as nothing else changed. Any Ford part dealer should be able to look it up, or you could look in a junk yard or possibly ebay for a used one.
  9. If the dealer doesn't do it, it certainly could affect a warranty claim. That would depend on how the dealer submits the claim to Ford. This is similar to reprogramming the ecm for more speed or power and over revving or running too rich or lean and creating damage to engine. I bring this up as I saw a new Vet getting a new engine at owner's expense. He removed programming before sending it dealer, "black box" saw the changes and GM denied claim. Ouch.
  10. Not sure how easy it really is to pull up the cargo cover and access the storage are without opening the rear hatch and crawling back there. If that is truly your intent you should probably invent/make a cargo cover that could "roll up" so you could easily get in from front side as well as back. Thin wood slats with a marine vinyl glued backing might do the trick. Necessity is the mother of invention.
  11. By "jump Box" do you mean a backup battery to jump an installed factory battery? If so I have a Lithium battery with jumper cable, USB outlets and with emergency light. I keep in the rear pocket sidewall in the cargo bay, driver's side. It fits tight and I leave it plugged in to the accessory plug right by it so its always charging when I drive and won't be dead when I need it.
  12. Been on the Dragon several times, always on bikes. Many accidents and one in our group went over the edge, luckily only scrapped up except his bike. Whether cars, bikes or small trucks it is a dangerous road and you can easily be run off it. Never tried to do it "timed" as I didn't want to get hurt, and stopped doing it after my friend's accident, separate from the one mentioned above above.
  13. I don't put my phone in face down, face up. So far it hasn't overheated. Went 2 hours the other day too, 100% charged, warm but not overheated. Has a thin case too. Tried another model Samsung, non foldable, and it works too. Yep, strange no wireless pad stock, but seems "home built" was only way to make it charge properly while using phone.
  14. My car did not come with the wireless pad, my last car did and same as you all report, if connected won't charge properly. Yea a tight fit for hones which is why I suggested under center arm rest. With the air conditioning on, my console stays cool so either there is a vent I don't see in there, or the vent to rear seats goes under there and keeps it cool enough. My last car cooked in there. Mistake or planned it works out well.
  15. So, bought a new phone, Samsung Z Flip 5. Love the form factor and they made me a stupidly good offer. Anyway, had previously stayed away from using AA wirelessly, always plugged into USB. reasons being Wifi was buggy on connection and the old 10 watt wireless charger wouldn't provide enough power to charge phone while connected. Recently though the USB connection started glitching on me particularly on long drives, so I decide to try AA on wireless again. To my amazement it hasn't disconnected once! So now I had to find a way to make it convenient and just through my phone into the cubby and stop plugging in. I finally found what works for me. A newer smaller 15 watt pad that has USB C and works with QI3.0 fast charging. Now my wireless charging works perfect. I didn't want to hang a wire to the passenger side accessory plug, or pull console apart to feed/hide wires, so I found a USB C accessory adapter to hold the QI charger. It all fits and works! I tucked the plugs way in the back since my phone didn't need all the room. If you use the adapter make sure you have enough room for your phone in the cubby. It looks like just enough room in front of ports in the cubby if you need the space. I did not try and use that though so unsure. If large phone doesn't fit, I suggest the tray under the arm rest. Not sure if this setup works for Iphones or Pixels, you'll need to read up on that on the venders site for the Pad. THIS WILL NOT WORK without the QI charger. It WILL provide power but not enough if you only plug into the USB C port. Tried it. Here are the links.
