    The vehicle has to be running and it has to be in Drive or Reverse for the DRLs to activate.  They don't activate in Park or with the engine off.

    To have the DRL turn on, the headlight switch (dial) should be on auto, the transmission lever should not be in P, and it should be daylight. Otherwise the DRL will be off.

     

     

    Hmm ok i'll try this out, thanks guys

    What do you mean by you can set them...? If you mean using the instrument cluster DRL setting, then it seems the DRLs for your Edge are set like that. Maybe a previous owner changed them using ForScan or through a dealer.

     

    Using the turn dial on the dash to the left of the steering wheel. "Off" is the first pic up top, next setting is the second pic and the "On" setting is the third pic.

  3. 2015 Ford Edge Sport - non HID.

    LED H11 bulbs for low beams (upgrade)

    halogen turn - 7440

    halogen high beam/DRL - 9005

     

    From everything im reading, the high beam (9005) should also act as a DRL. At no point in time, on any setting, has my high beams ever acted as a DRL. My lower bumper DRL work as they should. The only other lights that act like a DRL are my flashers. I can set them to stay off when all lights are off, on alongside the lower bumper DRLs, or on alongside lower bumper DRLs and low beams.

     

    Does this seem right? Something i'm missing maybe? I would love to replace my high beam with LEDs but i don't want the flicker issue i've read about since they are "supposed" to work as DRL as well.

     

    thanks guys!

  4. Now that sounds like it would be fun ?

     

    I know it's a little ridiculous just now learning about my Sport, but I told myself that when i got it that i wouldn't obsess over it and start modding it like all previous vehicles.

     

    The only things I'm even remotely interested in is #1 tuner #2 lowering

     

    1 down, 1 to go

  5. I'm not sure I've ever seen E30 anywhere. I used to see E15 a lot but over the last few years not so much.

     

    I believe I saw somewhere that you have to blend your own to get E30. Is that true?

     

    If yes, how do you make E30?

  6. So i've had my sport for 1 year and i have to admit that i've never put it in sport mode. I've driven manuals my whole life and finally got an automatic so i didnt carmuch for shifting anymore. I was also unaware that the car still shifts itself in sport mode...

     

     

    ...GOOD GOD does this thing fly in sport mode with the new tune. Im sure ive been missing out without the tune, but with it.....SO MUCH FUN!

    Under vehicle info I got a "CODE" & "SW" and sent them to Livernois.

     

    For the stock tune, after connecting the tuner to the PC, did you run the MyCalibrator software (app) on the PC? After running it (opening it) it should connect automatically to the tuner and send the stock tune. The App's information will show you a dialogue of what's going on, if I recall correctly. 

     

    How do you get to the screen that shows "code" and "sw". This is through the Sync touchscreen corret? I feel like a moron asking these questions. 

  8. Am I the only one who struggled filling out the tune form for the livernois mycalibrator touch? I feel like the code description they need didn't match the code description my car showed.

     

    For example:

    They ask for ECU/SC, all I could find was CCPU/SW.

     

    Same thing?

     

    If not, where the heck do I find it?

     

    Also, instructions say download your stock tune to the mycalibrator and upload it to the tuner program on your computer (installed that program yesterday). But when I plugged the tuner into my car for this, the touch screen came on but nothing happened. I couldn't tell of it was doing anything and it didn't have options to pick. Just the on screen and nothing else. I waited a few minutes and nothing. Kinda don't know what to do now.

    93 aggressive, e30, race 100. That's what you paid $ for, everything else... 

     

    I believe e85 and e30 will be coming back to a lot of gas stations eventually since some regulations were rolled back. No telling when or where you can find either though. I live in alabama and all pumps currently have 87, 89, 93. 

     

    I assume and octane booster added with 93 would get you to the 100?

  10. from what i gather, there is a performance tune and "soft" tune for 87, 89, 91, 93 octane and race grade. Performance tunes have more aggressive shifting where a soft tune is more like stock.

     

    I too am not 100% on all the variations they offer. 

     

    Here is a response i got the other day:

     

    thanks for using Livernois for your tuning, we have tunes in eoither 87,89,91 and 93 octane fuels, we can tune for performance and towing tunes if you tow with the ranger,

    | The most popular is 93perf and towing tunes as well as 91 perf and towing in case you can not get 93 octane fuel, Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks Dave

  11. I pulled the trigger on their touch mycalibor tuner the other day for my 15 sport and now I'm looking for recommendations on which 4 tunes to get.  I don't race or plan to, just looking for better performance like the next guy ? Thanks guys!

     

    Tunes I know I want:

    93 performance

    91 performance
