Retrofit 360 Camera Into Ford Edge


Recommended Posts

@Haz Can you post the connector pin out of the front controls for the 2021-2024 Edge? It is the one that connects to the airbag light indicator, camera button, hazard lights button, max defrost button, volume and tune knob, etc. Also curious to see what module these buttons are connected to.

Yes, you will need to use FORScan. There will be a change in the BCM to disable the rear camera LIN circuit, because the front and rear camera LIN circuit will connect to the IPMB instead. And some changes in the APIM.

Wish you good luck. Maybe also study the possibility of enabling the rear camera to view 180 degrees like the front camera?


The rear 180 degree camera is so useful because you can see way more. The view is amazing! 🤩

Any update on this.


Still working on my cameras. I replaced the rear camera, so I have rear 180 Split View. I think that I will order an Explorer front camera bracket to mount a front camera without having to replace the bumper.

 

I can’t confirm if it is possible to align the cameras with the pattern and FDRS. I haven’t tried yet.

 

The only difference on your 2019 is that you have SYNC 3. Here is a picture of a SYNC 3 Edge with the 360 camera system:

Holy crap @Wubster100 , I love this thread. This, IMO, is a major oversight by Ford on the Edge, not having the 360 cams even as an option. WHEN you are successful, I will almost certainly be doing exactly this same project. I am no stranger to OEM upgrades on Ford vehicles.

I am thinking that I should order a Ford Explorer front camera mount to install a front camera just below the Ford logo without having to get a new front bumper. The goal is to mount the camera as close as possible to the Edge that already have the front camera.

It wouldn't hurt to ask a Ford/Lincoln dealer if they'd attempt the 360-degree camera alignment procedure -- or a larger independent shop or collision repair center.

 

Good luck!

On the F150 forums several people added these after they were built and apparently the only thing needed is a large open parking lot as the straight lines are used for calibration. I’ll see if I can find a post/thread about it

That is for the newer vehicles, such as 2021+ F-150, 2022+ Expedition, 2020+ Explorer, 2024+ Escape.

 

Older vehicles will require the calibration mats, such as 2015-2020 F-150, 2016-2018 MKX, 2018-2021 Expedition.
