  1. Hello All, Thank you for your posts related to this issue! We have had the same issue with a 2016 Edge. The first time I had it was when the car was in a no contact car wash. Then the lights and the messages went away then came back. Thanks to Dallas 150's post and mvan231 who put the parts numbers for the wires, I decided to change the 2 wire (bought the 2 wires for less than 100$ Canadian for both) for the EPB (I did not bring the car to the dealer) last Saturday and since no more Parking brake limited functions message no alarm, no break lights on the Dashboard. The parking brake functions correctly . I did not check the old wires yet to find out where they were broken. It might have been more than just the wires, but it is a good thing to change the wires first before to see if the issue has been solved. I believe Ford should ask owners to bring the cars to dealers once they have this issue and should cover the repair costs. Thanks again!
  2. Gadgetjp, i just had a quick look in the PDF about Electronic parking Brake before maintenance and I found the answer for my question about the caliper piston. Here is the it: "NOTE: When replacing rear brake pads in service (maintenance) mode, the brake caliper piston must be compressed into the caliper housing. The brake caliper piston does not have to be rotated while compressing the piston." Many thanks again! "
  3. Thank you so much Gadgetjq, Yes, it is unusual. When I looked at the front pads and saw around half left, I said great, the rear should be in better shape, but finally not. I will go over the PDF and the page for your hints and tips. Surely, I will learn from them. I'll try to download the manual. Best!
  4. Hello Everyone, I am new. Thank you for this forum! We have a 2016 Edge SEL, V6. I have three questions: 1- Is it normal to have to change the rear brake pads and rotors very soon (the car is at 53100 km (33000 miles)? I am in the East of Canada (Ottawa-Gatineau Area). The front pads are ok (around half left). 2- What about the maintenance mode for the Edge before doing the work (how to set it up and return to normal after the work) and for the rear caliper do I need to turn it or to push it back. Someone put a video on Youtube saying you have to turn it but it will stuck at a certain point and you have to push it back from there. I found this strange and he did not talk about the maintenance mode. Could it be the reason it was stuck at some point? 3- Does anyone have information about this website selling repair manuals: https://manualsforyou.com/shop/ford-edge-2016-2018-factory-workshop-service-repair-manual/ They advertised the 2016 Edge facory manual at $22 US (PDF to download) or $25 US (CD will be mailing). Finally, I plan to buy pads OEM pads and rotors, they will give me lifetime warranty on the pads and 2 years on the rotors (I could buy Power Stop or something else online but shipping to Canada is too expensive). Do you have any suggestions? Thank you!
