  1. I don’t have any paddle shifters. If I use sport mode, there is engine breaking.
  2. They love to remove everything. I love having a keypad on my vehicle, it gets used almost every day when my passenger arrives at the vehicle before I do, they do not need to stand around and wait for me to unlock the car. If you have a Ford with the keypad deleted, you can buy one, but they look bulky, and I wonder how long it will take before the keypad falls off. Once I saw one mounted to the tailgate. At least the 2024 Broco Sport, 2024 Escape, and 2025 Explorer have an option for a hardwired keypad, but it is almost $200 USD, before installation and programing.
  3. The owner's manuals are such a mess these days. One example can be seen in the F-150 lightning owner's manual, where it mentions a remote park adjust feature, yet that doesn't exist.
  4. Rear Window Washer When the rear window washer switch is activated, the SCCM sends the request to the driver side windshield wiper motor assembly through the LIN. The driver side windshield wiper motor assembly energizes the rear washer relay (located in the BJB) and activates the rear window wiper motor. When the driver side windshield wiper motor assembly activates the rear window wash relay, voltage is provided to the washer pump, directing washer fluid to the rear window. When the switch is released, the rear window wiper motor continues to operate for 3 additional wipes and then turns off.
  5. I have a 2021 Edge SEL, and I only have a reverse camera. I was able to use the camera washer for the first time today by pressing the camera button to show the rear camera, then used the lever to clean the rear window. Washer fluid also came out of thee camera washer. My question is that is it necessary to be viewing the camera for it to be cleaned, or will the camera be cleaned any time the rear window washer is activated? Will washer fluid always be pumped to the rear windshield and camera at the same time? Here is what I was able to find: Windshield Washer When the wiper/washer switch is activated, the SCCM sends the washer request to the driver side windshield wiper motor assembly over the LIN. The windshield wash relay is internal to the driver side windshield wiper motor assembly. When the driver side windshield wiper motor assembly activates the internal windshield wash relay, voltage is provided to the washer pump, directing washer fluid to the windshield. If equipped with a front camera, washer solvent is also directed to the front camera lens when the washer pump is active. When the switch is released, the windshield wiper motors will continue to activate for 3 additional wipes and then turn off. Ground for the washer pump is provided through the rear window washer relay located within the BJB.
  6. Get back to https://fordescapeforum.com/! 😂 ...Doesn't look like there is too much activity going on over there.
  7. If you look closely on the IPC, there is a rear fog lamp indicator light. I removed the connector on my headlamps switch, and unfortunately I do not have a communication wire from the BCM to the headlamps switch for rear fog lights. I didn’t bother to check for a power wire from the BCM to the rear of the vehicle for fog lights. @Haz I would like to request the wiring diagram for the headlamps switch that shows where pin 2 on connector C205 connects to the BCM for communication. My understanding is that the switch makes a momentary connection to ground.
  8. I will check out my 2021 SEL BCM to see if I have any wires ran for rear fog lights.
  9. I see that you are going to order a rear fog light to see if it will fit. Have you investigated the headlamp switch yet? Also, if you shine a light on your instrument panel cluster, you should notice that next to your fog lights, there is a rear fog light lamp.
  10. 2019-2024 reflector panel - left, rear (USA, no light) KT4Z15A449B
  11. They probably said that it won't fit because the USA market never had the option for rear fog lights, therefore all Edges from USA market will be incompatible. You may have to compare the physical dimensions of a regular USA rear reflector to a European rear reflector with the fog light to determine if the fog light will fit.
  12. There is some good information on wiring rear fog lights to a Ford Fusion. THe Fusion is similar to the Edge. http://www.2gfusions.net/showthread.php?tid=8347
  13. The same things are happening to me. If I go for a longer drive (20 minutes) I am able to listen to the radio. My FordPass will stay connected for a while.
  14. The battery in my 2021 is getting bad. It’s just a waiting game until one day the car doesn’t start.
  15. This definitely reminds me of the Toyota/Lexus beep. What do the corner lights do on the Nissan? Did the corner lights ever come on for other functions when you didn't lock the car?
  16. FORScan is a free software. You only need to get a supported adapter for about $35 USD.
  17. Adaptive cruise control down to 0 km/h and lane centering will not be possible without replacing many parts. It will be expensive and complex. It has been done on a Fusion before by replacing PSCM, SCCM, GWM, IPMA, CCM, all from a 2020 Edge.
  18. Can you provide more information such as the vehicle year/trim level/region?
  19. Failure Modes When a DTC is present in the PSCM, the EPAS enters 1 of 2 modes of operation. The EPAS system enters a reduced steering assist mode to protect the internal components of the EPAS system when a concern is detected by the PSCM such as low or high battery voltage or over-temperature concerns not considered to be a critical safety concern. This reduced steering assist mode gives the steering a heavier than normal feel. The EPAS system enters a manual steering mode (no electrical steering assistance is provided) when a concern considered to be a critical safety concern is detected. In manual steering mode, the vehicle has mechanical steering operation only, which gives steering operation a heavy feel. There are 3 failure strategies used by the PSCM for determining failure modes. The first strategy is limp home; when the PSCM detects a fault requiring the EPAS to switch to a failure mode, the PSCM calculates a "safe" level of torque assist and provides this assist until the ignition is cycled. If the fault remains during the next ignition cycle, the PSCM switches to manual steering mode until the fault is repaired. If the fault is not present during the next ignition cycle, the PSCM resumes normal operation and steering assist. The next strategy is limp aside; similar to the limp home strategy except the limp aside strategy can recover normal steering assist during the same ignition cycle if the fault is no longer present or the ignition is cycled. If the fault is still present, the PSCM switches to manual steering mode until the fault is repaired. The last strategy is ramp down; the PSCM uses all the various inputs to calculate a torque output command to provide steering assist, if the module cannot calculate this output, it uses the last known good torque command to provide steering assist until the PSCM completely removes assist and switches to manual steering mode until the fault is repaired.
  20. Finally finished installing ambient lighting in my 2021 Edge. The cup holders are OEM and everything else is aftermarket. The cup holders are only ice blue, and they are controlled by the SYNC screen. In each door, I installed a light in the door handle, door storage, and an LED strip along the door trim. I also installed 4 LED lights under the seats to light up the footwell areas. I also installed an LED strip above the glove box. All of the aftermarket lights are controlled by a hidden physical switch or with Bluetooth from my phone. I was able to get the cup holders for free by using Fordpass Points, and the aftermarket lights were only $34 USD (including shipping) for everything. Overall I am happy with the new ambiance.
  21. I hate the time out when searching for stuff in the forum. Why do I have to wait if I want to make a new search immediately following a previous search? It must be to prevent spam requests or something.
  22. At night, I can see a slight red reflection when I look back. Too bad we don’t have any drive modes like an eco mode.
  23. The options that you see in FORScan are not always 100% reliable and correct. There may be differences due to vehicle model, firmware revision, region, etc.
