where do you live? maybe you can find someone with forscan and a OBD device nearby who would help you.

what tires do you have? how worn are they? i had an '09 Edge Limited with AWD and the factory all season tires. i don't remember what brand they were but they were absolute garbage in the snow. we had a bit of snow shortly after i got the car and i wanted to see how it fared. it didn't. no traction at all either accelerating or braking. it was dangerous. in comparison, i had michelin x-ice on my next edge and they were amazing. loads of grip (relatively speaking for snow.) i remember years ago when i had an X5 and guys on a forum were complaining about how bad their car was because it couldn't get up their steep driveway. they had high performance low profile summer tires on, duh!! all season tires aren't very good in the snow and AWD or 4WD is no substitute for where the rubber meets the road.

in my 2020 Edge, there are instructions for showing the code on the display. i think there may be similar instructions in your owner's guide as well. i seem to recall similar instructions on my '09 and '16. you don't mention your model year.

greetings from the extreme opposite end of canada!

i have a 2020 ST that is only a few months old. from time to time, the left turn signal will flash quickly. a return to off and on again has always returned it to normal. yesterday it occurred at a place where i could stop and get out of the car to see which light it was. turns out to be the front left turn signal. in the "old days" this would indicate a burnt out bulb but since all signal bulbs are LED in this car (front amber on headlight assembly, mirror, and rear) and the problem always corrects itself by turning the signal off and back on again, i'm wondering what the failure could be so i know where to start looking. would a loose connection cause these symptoms? i'm thinking not since it always corrects itself by turning the sign off and on again. i'm thinking that a loose connection would remain in failure mode. could it be the headlight assembly? electronics somewhere? obviously the car is under warranty so i can just tell them about it when i go in for the first service. i'll have to record the signals when they fail because you know what happens; they won't be able to duplicate the problem. if anyone has any ideas, i'd like to hear them. thanks.

thought i'd post this just for the record. i was trying different things with the + and - buttons and found that it behaves much differently than i had anticipated. perhaps it will also clear up any potential misunderstanding about how to do what people suggested. a press that is very slightly longer than a quick tap raises the speed to the next even 10 kph. i don't mean a long press as in seconds, just a tap that you hold on to for maybe half-a-second? hope this makes sense. so if i'm doing 52, the longer tap takes it to 60. if i'm doing 57 it does the same thing; bumps it to 60. then if you hold on, it will further raise the speed by 10 kph so 70, 80, 90, etc. I assumed that the press and hold would raise the speed in 1 kph increments and that it would be difficult to lift off the button at exactly 60 for example. then i'd have to look at the speed setting and further adjust. it seemed like an awkward way to do it. anyway, this is good enough for me so i consider the case to be closed ?

and you must have missed the third post in this thread. pressing and holding still requires the driver to take their eyes off of the road and look at something else which is in my opinion an inferior solution and a distraction that i prefer to avoid. in any case, the point of this thread was to inquire as to whether or not it is possible to change the increments for each press of the + and - buttons, not to debate the merits or faults of other methods.

i believe the cars set to MPH have always changed in one MPH increments. the problem is that 1 MPH = 1.6 KPH. changing speed by 6 MPH would require 6 clicks whereas it that equals 10 KPH and thus 10 clicks.

yes, it was 2 KPH on my 09 and 16. not so on my 2020.

let's keep this simple; let's just trade cars. ? last night after i posted this i was wondering if i could push and hold. i'll check that out. only problem is that you have to take your eyes off the road to do it. thanks omar302.

in my '09 and '16 edges, the cruise control + and - changed the speed by 2 KPH. Now my new '20 changes the speed by 1 KPH so to speed up or slow down 10 KPH i have to press the buttons on the steering wheel 10 times whereas before it was only 5. for the metrically challenged among us, that means that to change approx 6 MPH, it takes 10 clicks. a little bit ridiculous in my opinion. anyone know if it's possible to modify this increment? i have forescan and the adapter thingy. thanks

i had a battery fail when one of the cells cracked. glad you got in the car. now you have to replace the lock cylinder too.

as omar302 said, there are different display options. i use one that has the tach with gas gauge and water temperature.

i didn't know you had a 2013. not mentioned in the OP. no, not suggesting you remove anything.

i couldn't see omar302's "upper trims" pic so here's another one: the left and right displays are LCD while the speedometer in the center is analog, i.e. a real needle that rotates.

i'm not sure. i've never really looked into it. don't know much about the Lincolns. perhaps someone more knowledgeable will chime in.

wow, thanks for all that info. so strange to see three pedals and a stick in an edge and the instrument cluster looks interesting.

oops, "looks like i picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue" sorry 'bout that. i need to pay more attention.

my guess is cost saving issue more than anything.

i find it strange that the key does nothing to open the door. did you expose the lock cylinder like this? : [deleted wrong info that i posted because i'm an idiot.]

so what was the difference between the previous Sport model and the lower models?

i was thinking about this a bit more and for me, what it comes down to is that i like the wolf in sheep's clothing. when i see people put an "S" on a non-S porsche, or a V12 on a 6 cylinder mercedes or a M5 badge on a 525i, it makes me laugh. i'd love someone to see my de-badged ST and think how i must be embarrassed to have an SE to leave the badge. fine with me. i'm definitely not condemning anyone who leaves things as they came, even with the dealer stickers and/or license plate frames. i just prefer my cars without.
