  1. Hi All, Just wanted to report back that I was able to add a heated steering wheel pretty easily. I found a heated wheel out of a wrecked 19' SEL with Copilot 360+ on ebay for $172. I bought the clockspring (ERGZ-14A664-J - $83.19), HSWM (DG9Z14B561-A - $34.09), and the replacement steering wheel bolt ($0.86) on Tasca. With tax and shipping I spent about $330 total. Fortunately the harness is already setup for the HSWM. On the module side you just unclip it from the holder under the dash. In my case I double sided taped the module to a support bracket and double secured it with a couple of zip ties. I saw no need to by a bracket and bolt in a 1 oz plastic box. On the clockspring end (which by the way Ford calls a "Contact Plate Assembly" and saves the designation of Clockspring for a $600+ part in the steering column - which really threw me off), the wiring is all exactly the same on the vehicle side, with the one extra plug on the wheel side. Even the other end of that heated plug is on the old clockspring - presumably going nowhere. I finished it up with the forscan instructions from the Fusion 2G site, and viola... wifey has warm hands!
  2. Is it possible that the vehicle itself might have a part number in it that is not actually replaceable? AKA, if I wanted to replace my steering wheel with a non-heated version that had adaptive cruise, etc... it doesn't seem like I could buy one.
  3. Hi folks, happy to be a new member of the Edge community. Just bought my wife a 19’ Edge Titanium with the 301A package. After we picked it up I was shocked to realize that it doesn’t have the heated steering wheel my 19’ Fusion Titanium has. My wife is going to be mad when I tell her as that was one of the key things that convinced her to upgrade from her beloved Santa Fe. I have read the heated wheel installation guides on the F150 and Fusion forums, so I understand the basic concept. I am new to Forscan but have bought the adapter and plan to learn. The big question I have is what parts do I actually need for my wife’s particular car. For example, my wife’s car has paddle shifters, adaptive cruise, lane centering, etc. the closest part description for the wheel seems to be: ”KT4Z-3600-SB Edge. With adaptive cruise. 2019-20, with heated wheel. Without leather strg. wheel.” But, I also can’t find a non-heated steering wheel listed for a 19’ Edge with adaptive Cruise /active steer. And all wheels with adaptive or active steering say “without leather strg. Wheel”. Seems to make no sense. So should I assume that our car has this wheel, and it’s a wheel with heated elements? I know that’s not true for most models, but could it be that at the Titanium level the wheels are already ready for heat? Same question for the clock spring? Can’t find any reference to one that has power tilt/telescope and adaptive but no heat. Should I again assume the wiring is already there? i suppose it could be that they just left out the HSWM, again begging the question why did Ford omit this from a loaded vehicle with front and rear heated seats, heated mirrors, and everything else... just to sell an extra cold weather package? If anyone has any insight, or suggestions for how I might find out, I’d love to hear more! Thanks!
