Excellent. Very helpful. Thanks a ton! I guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend

Paul,
I'm currently trying to install TWakefield's 3d-printed parts. How were you able to get the seat cover removed? I have a 2017 Edge Sport and there don't seem to be any zippers or closures. I got as far as the j-channels, but am having an issue getting the seat cover out of the way enough to install the fix.

Thanks,

Brian

I had the TSB revisions applied to my 15 Edge Titanium. It helped but didn't solve the back issue 100%. Also own a F150 so am familiar with the issues. On the F150 Forum, TWakefield has developed a fix that finally addresses the issue. Seems the air from the TED (ThermoElectric Device) that generates cooling discharges into the seat cavity, causing it to heat up and negate or greatly reduce the upper back cooling.

 

He's made an adapter that vents the hot air out into the passenger compartment (under the seat) which greatly improves the operation of the seat back. The thread on the F150 forum is almost 300 pages long but very good reading if you're having the issue. Thread Link if you'd like to see Tim's website that address this, here's that link: TWakefield Mod

 

I've installed the mod on my seats and would have to say they are now at 85% of what the bottom seats are. Temperatures in the midwest should be in the 70's shortly so I'm ahead of the curve for this summers use.

 

 

 

FYI

Did you ever have any luck removing the seat covers? I'm attempting this same fix now and running into the same problem.

Thanks!
