Are you suggesting that the high beam wire on the other end is not connected to anything? You'd think that Ford would have wanted to save .005 cents for not running that wire there if it's not going to be used, imagine what that would save and weight on the vehicle..😁 On my 2016 Edge, I remember there are only two wires connected to the bulb connector. Ground and DRL. Are you saying yours has 3 wires? If yes, then that's different and my statement above would then be wrong or not applicable to your Edge.

I'd think there's a way to get power to it from the existing wiring. Else - barring that I think can make a simple circuit using a relay to power the hi-beam when the HID triggers the eyelid/flipper that opens the HID for the pseudo hi-beam. There's enough room in the casing to have a small relay just sitting in there. I think that adding that would improve the overall illumination on the road between the two.

redden18 Report post Posted November 21, 2022 Do not forget you can overheat and thus melt your bulb housing if using two filaments at the same time... Moreover, you should think of power draw and about the sourse of additional power supply. How it is done by Ford I think is reasonable... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moreover, you should think of power draw and about the sourse of additional power supply. How it is done by Ford I think is reasonable... The dual filament issue is a non-issue because the DRL goes off when the lights come on. So that leaves the high beams operating on the one filament when the high beams are on, and those housings were originally designed for high beams. As to the power, using a relay you get the power from a good source which can be from several places - that's not a prob The trigger for the relay is a very low draw and it can be done from any source in the headlight that activates when the high beam is selected, like from the HID high beam flapper thing. Frankly, I have built many circuits for electronics and I have never had an issue doing so. I definitely need better headlights than those HIDs, and this might be the solution.

Wesow Report post Posted January 1 (edited) Gents, Looking in SECM Module for Engine Tune Selection page I could not find the Engine fitted in my car Edge ST-Line 2018 2.0L Diesel 210 HBP. Which one I should select? Edited January 1 by Wesow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dasher21591 Report post Posted January 15 On a 2001 Edge Limited Has anyone been able to change the Temp gauge to give a temp number instead of just showing a Thermometer? I've seen on some other Fords this has been done. If anyone know the the mod # that would be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mind posting a pictures of the issue you are referring to. It's a 2011 Edge Limited AWD I don't have a pic of the Forscan because that's the issue not sure what mod it is. Would be nice to figure this out. When I first looked into it I was concerned about it overheating because the fans never came on. I sense have replaced the fan module and they run when I turn on the A/C so hopefully they will run in warmer weather. With the idiot symbol all I know is if it's warmed up or not and where it normally rides. I just really don't know what temp it is. Like I said in my first post there is youtube videos of this being change on some Fords and I've tried what they did but they were not the Edge and maybe the wrong year. Any help with this would be greatly appreciate. now let's see if the pic will send Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can use an OBD2 Reader and an app to read the temperature, or enter Engineering Mode in the IPC. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeVic Report post Posted January 24 (edited) I use FORScan Lite to monitor the exact ECT. Engine Coolant Temperature. Also Transmission Fluid Temp. It is a pain to reconnect the phone and app every time I start the engine though. I have seen the actual temp displayed in a 2022 Ford Bronco. Along with actual voltage. Would like to see that in my Edge. Edited January 24 by JoeVic 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
