WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Have the same problem on mine. Stumped dealership and my fav service shop. They both say the batteries are fine, they relearned them with no problems etc etc etc. I keep thinking the spare tire could be an issue, but haven't tested that theory yet. Unless the TPMS module itself is to blame, maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both say the batteries are fine, they relearned them with no problems etc etc etc. I keep thinking the spare tire could be an issue, but haven't tested that theory yet. Unless the TPMS module itself is to blame, maybe? Well it's good to know I'm not the only one with this issue...I've read it comes and goes for others but mine is constant. I'm just confused as to why it was fine for 2 days of city driving and then decided to come on randomly...I may have NTB run a sensor check (just to see if they respond back) when they do the final alignment on the wheels. I'll update with my answer, may not be till this weekend or so. I've also heard some say that TPMS sensors can go bad around 100k but these are sensors installed in wheels just over a year ago so they shouldn't be bad already. I guess we'll see....I don't mind the light, I just hate that annoying chirp at startup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmillz1331 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Finally got the TPMS reset! I found a tip on a F150 forum that stated when you switch between wheels after awhile, that the battery in other sensors may go into "hibernation". So I followed steps to wake them up haha so here they are... -Fill tires up to recommended pressure -Release pressure in all tires to 15-20 psi lower than recommended (I went from 35 to 20 psi) -Wait minimum 5 minutes before refilling back up to recommended psi -Train tires using key cycle and brake pedal method w/ learning tool (I placed learning tool directly below valve stem and had to move it around a couple inches) Worked perfectly and now no more light or annoying noise for me! Hope this may helps others down the road. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellbine Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 So you tinted your front bumper LED lights? It seems that those lights are not that strong to begin with. IMO, Ford is way behind the rest of the industry when it comes to lighting. How much light does your LEDs produce with the tint now? Do you have any day and nighttime pics after the tint was installed on your bumper? I am curious to see what it looks like. Tinted my turn signals on the mirror housings to match the bumper LED lights 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are extremely bright. Not as for driving but as far as visibility. I actually hate them to be honest cause they serve no purpose and will be putting fog lights in. I have pics but easier to link once I get to a computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Bought a COP & spark plug kit, OEM/Ford, BA5Z-12259-A, for a pretty good price from Levittown: https://secure.revolutionparts.com/levittown-ford/oe-ford/ba5z12259a Works for the 2010-12 Fusion Sport as well, in case you are wondering.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Notes on the NA version of the 3.5L:http://www.motortrend.com/features/n...06/112_news51/ Cyclone Hits Ford PowertrainAutomotive Design & Production - January 20, 2006Ford's 3.5-liter VE will debut in the 2006 Lincoln Aviator and Ford Edge crossovers. From there, use will expand until one-in-five North American Ford vehicles use this powertrain-codenamed "Cyclone"-by 2010. The all-aluminum engine has the same package size as the smaller displacement Duratec 30, but produces an estimated 250 hp @ 6,250 rpm and 240 lb-ft @ 4,500 rpm on regular gas. It has a 10.3:1 compression ratio, rev limit of E,700 rpm, and produces 71.5 hp/liter. "The 3.5-liter engine has been designed to accept either transverse or longitudinal mounting," says Barb Samardzich, v.p. of Powertrain Operations, "and the architecture has been put in place for upgrades like hybrid capability, and gasoline direct injection with or without turbocharging." The engine has a Fully counterweighted Forged-steel crank with induction-hardened journals and six-bolt mains, Fracture-split powder metal-Forged connecting rods, and cast-aluminum pistons. High-pressure die casting is used in making the block, and features cast-in iron liners. This process was chosen due to its tighter process control, more consistent results, reduced raw material requirements when compared to conventional sand casting, and a reduction in post-processing and hazardous byproducts. In addition, the base Cyclone VE has variable timing on the intake cams that uses a hydraulically activated spool valve to rotate the cams up to 40° within halfa second. "The engine is PZEV-capable," says Samardzich, and has an electronic throttle, low heat transfer exhaust maniFold and close-couple catalyst, and direct-acting shimless bucket tappets. At the start of production, the engine-which is produced at Ford's Lima, DH, engine plant-will be ULEV2 rated.In transverse applications, the Cyclone will be mated to the BF six-speed automatic transmission developed jointly by Ford and GM. Designed to handle 300 hp and 280 Ib-Ft of torque, the transaxle has a maximum shift limit oF 7,000 rpm and a 6.04:1 spread between first and sixth gears. It is the first automatic transmission from Ford to use a chain-driven off-axis pump with optimized porting. This design reduces package size and improves NVH levels.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Don't they make one in Red? They should! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Thought I'd replace the fuses on the power points (underhood, 64-66, 20A), as the amperages coming through on my USB charger were dismally low. Boy, was it a struggle to get the old fuses out! The plastic top came off every one of them. Then I had to grab each side with a needlenose and rock back & forth to remove. Still managed to break the casing a little. New fuses went in, but not without effort. T-I-G-H-T! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Didn't even think about it, TBH. I should have tried, but this being the main power distribution box, I would have been leery anyway. Sensors & stuff, sure, wouldn't wanna take the risk of blowing the nerve center. Probably baseless paranoia, but there you have it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucifer Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) When I did every single fuse in the glovebox of my BMW, i pulled it, hit the fuse lightly with an emery board, quick swipe of a greased up Q-tip and replaced it. Haven't been that ambitious with the Edge, but when I did my plugs, every harness that came apart had it's holes filled with di-electric then wiped clean. Oh...and got my mud guards today. Possible installation tomorrow. Edited June 8, 2016 by Brucifer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're back in the UK 2 years this month and miss our Edge - and Canada - every day! Only seen a black test mule on the streets here so far but Edge is coming, except for now at least I'll need a lottery win to get one (Sport, blue I think!) but then it would come up against an F-Pace and might lose out Driving this at the moment because we now have 3 children and need 3 child seats across the back row Edited June 8, 2016 by BeDevil79 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
