  1. Is there a manual override for closing the vista sunroof in case of motor failure? From past experience, I know some vehicles include a manual crank override that can be used to close it. Does this sunroof have that?
  2. I'm adding a solution to one of my questions above - just figured it out. > Control foot-well accent light intensity, no forscan needed >> I was fiddling around the other day and while playing with the color options fro the accent lighting, I noticed that the accent color picker squares also slide up and down - because its a dimmer control! I'm kind of surprised nobody had figure that one out... On to the next one.
  3. I've done all the basics, such as turning on the brights. It's a verified dual element by removing it, and both filaments are good. There are three wires going to it, so it has a purpose I suppose. The DRLs do come on with that bulb, but nothing else (that I can figure) turns on the other element. My low and high beam (brights) work from the outer bulbs, which are HID according to the window sticker. That's the one I want to remove to clean the lenses, but I don't want to force it too much. I can't figure out what the locking or mount mech is for those.
  4. Hello... This Edge '17 Edge Sport headlight seem to be missing something. I have the DRL on no prob..However, that same bulb te runs the DRLs is a dual element. What is the other function of this bulb? I cannot figure out what the other element is for. It's not high beam since that works with the outermost LED light. I'm referring to the 2 innermost halogen bulbs - see pic. Also - how does the LED bulb get removed so I can clean the headlight lens from the inside? Its a bit foggy and it could use some cleaning. Thanks
  5. Yes that is correct, and that's what the wiring harness accomplishes. It mentions and the instructions that it needs some supplemental power supply to be able to match the voltage, it's that supplemental power supply that I'm talking about where it can be taken from the accessory power in the back rather than running a wire all the way to the front of the vehicle or following the other directions that have been included in here. I'm wondering why is that not an option mentioned.
  6. Thanks for that link. It took me to the page for forscan where there's a lot of information, but I still have to register to acres Forscan and in the registering process is when it asks for that invitation code. I did not see how to resolve that from the link you sent me.
  7. While trying to register at forscan it's requesting an invitation code. Where do I get this invitation code from?
  8. If all that is needed is a supplemental power for the trailer light aftermarket module, why go through all that trouble? Instead just tap into the accessory power (cig lighter) that is in the cargo area. Add a fuse to the line and you are set. It's a minimal amount of draw and it should not be an issue.
  9. I'm interested in these, ordering the interface connector, though not sure which one to order that is fully capable for all this. I posted some desired mods in other thread. > Default audio sys on volume > Always display gears in as they change > Flash center brake light > Footwell accent light intensity control > My remote control engine start is not working, need to look into this..the window sticker specs show it's included, but not working. Any experience with any of these? Im ready to order the interface as soon as I'm sure which is best for all this. Thanks
  10. Hello all... I'm familiar withe BCM changes using the VW group VagCom (Ross Tech) interface. Many options, some now I'd like to see if I can change similar option in my Edge. Are there Forscan settings for these: > Set default audio volume when ignition turned on (via ignition or audio sys on) > Always display gears on dash by the tach (or anywhere). Had this in VW, shows the transmission gears as they change, not just when using paddles. > Flash center brake light when braking - attention getter > Close windows with remote (already opens front). > Open/close all windows not just front. > Sunroof - open shade only half way (to the bar or so) and be able to open sunroof. > Control footwell accent light intensity >> Solved, use color picker squares to control intensity - slide up/down These to start, thanks.
  11. This link is outdated and does not pull up. Is there a model number to loom for? Also, are these ODB connectors specific to the model and or year? I'd be OK with hardwired rather than BT or wifi.
  12. My does the same. I'd like to be able to lower all windows (as I did in my prev vehicle) as well as raise them all from the fob. Is this mod available via Forscan? Other mods I'm interested in - can Forscan do these: - Lower mirror(s) on reverse - DRLs on - Default initial audio volume - avoid blasting if volume was left high - Cyclops brake light flas on/off when braking - Interior footwell accent lights intensity Control - Allow sunroof to open without opening the sunshield the whole way back. - Turn on rear windshield wiper on reverse if fronts are on I'll be installing a hitch - anything that needs to be done so the vehicle know's it's towing? My ther had that. Just a few that I can think of from my prev mods on another vehicle. Thanks! I'd like to know before I buy the sw and connector.
  13. Hello, Just got this Edge and looking forward to learning more about it. Also interested in learning about Forscan functionality and possible tweaks I may be able to do to the Edge. Thanks!
