HiQ Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago We recently purchased a 2023 SEL and were told it had rain sensing wipers. I didn't check everything (rush purchase) and it seems like it does not have them. We do have the co-pilot360 option pack with auto dimming headlights and lane cantering and radar cruise, so I assume the sensors/wiring are there. Can I enable this in Forscan or do I need to add any additional sensors or just replace the wiper stalk? Anyone ever tried this? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago Welcome. I'd be surprised if it doesn't have rain sensing wipers. Could you post a photo of the windshield looking from the outside directly in front of the rearview mirror - that would confirm if you have the sensor. If it doesn't have the rain sensor you'd probably need and new windshield, the sensor and possibly other electronics. Does it have the original or a Ford OEM windshield installed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STBEAST Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago My 2024 has rain sensing wipers. To be honest I don't really notice much of a difference. I actually went back to using the Wiper Delay and adjust as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife has it at work right now, but I'll get a picture for you later today. She had auto wipers on her older Mazda (09) and loved them as she hates driving in the rain. I'm really hoping to be able to get these working on the new Edge as it seems wild it doesn't have them. Maybe she just doesn't know how they work. I'll check the vehicle settings and see if there are any auto wiper entries in there also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabangsta Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) 2023 rain sensing wipers are Titanium and ST only, not even optional or part of any packages for the SE/SEL/ST-Line. EDIT: removed as part of the 2021 sweeping changes. Edited 15 hours ago by dabangsta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's unfortunate. Wonder how hard it would be to add them? I guess the windshield would be the biggest issue assuming it doesn't have the spot for the sensor. Find out tonight.

HiQ Posted 9 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 9 hours ago Not the easiest thing to get a decent picture of, but what am I looking for? There's the spot for the co-pilot sensors I assume. Should there be more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Definitely need a replacement windshield to mount the rain sensor. See the rain sensor mounting in the below thread: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
