    • It's the front and sides (both) but mostly the sides and they light up red along most of the length of the image of the car.  It happens, mostly, when I'm at the first stop sign leaving my development.  Nothing within at least 25 feet of the car, smooth pavement.  
    • Yes   When you mention that they will light up red on screen, is it always the same sensor?   Possible causes: Could there be any object nearby, such as a stop sign pole or plant? Could the sensor be pushed in or not mounted correctly? Is the road surface uneven that could cause the parking sensors to point down at the road?   The side parking sensors can be sensitive to anything nearby.
    • I posted this back almost a year ago. Since then, I contact the Turbo Resource in AZ.  I asked them what they set the waste gate opening lbs. at.  They told me 8 lbs.  I read over above what HAZ posted.  The waste gate should be set for 7 lbs. not 8 lbs. **My questions are;   1. Could this be the main reason my P0234 Overboost condition check engine light keeps turning on?  Does the software see that it is not opening within a "Window" and then the P0234 code comes on.  Is 1 lb. that big of a deal?   2. If I need to adjust the wastegate, is it possible to reach up, take out the heat shield bolts, bend the heat shield down to remove the locking nut clip and adjust the waste gate to 7 lbs.?   3. Or do I need to disconnect the catalytic converter and then get access to the wastegate that way?   Thanks,   Mark     Quote"Sharing my Turbo Experience.  2012 FORD SEL Ecoboost 2.0l.  I live in CA.  My car was giving me the P0299 Code.  I ended up purchasing a turbo from eBay just to get the "Wastegate Section" the "Thin One" since my Edge is a 2012 with the -A Turbo.  I got a quote from Ford for the Turbo, which is now the "Thicker" "Wastegate Section" the -H revision.  In turn, I would need to purchase a new Catalytic Converter to mate up with the revised waste gate section, at an additional cost of $2,000!  So, I sent off my Edge Turbo to Turbo Re-source in Lake Havisu, AZ.  Rebuilt Turbo was $780 plus shipping.  I also had the ebay turbo shipped to Turbo Re-source.  They mated the waste gate section up to my rebuilt Turbo and set the waste gate linkage to specs.  The turbo is totally rebuilt and blueprinted.  I want to say that Tom and his team have been the best to deal with.  They had my Turbo rebuilt and shipped back to me in 7 days!  Super friendly and went above and beyond with all of my questions.  I contacted Borg-Warner directly and were referred to them.  Borg Warner also suggested BECS Turbo in Whittier, CA.  I also spoke to a technician Art Saldana.     I had the turbo taken out by my mechanic and reinstalled.  I am having an intermittent "Over Boost" code now, P0234.  It happened on the same street/hill we drove up in the same spot twice.  The first code I had my mechanic clear it.  The second time it cleared itself within a few days.  No issues except on the one hill we went up.  I need to have it checked to pull all the codes.  Maybe we can pin point the issue with one of the sensors?  Any suggestions?  Are the sensors reachable with the turbo still in the vehicle.  Estimated cost to diagnose and replace a sensor?   Ford wanted around $5,500 to replace turbo, catalytic converter which included labor. I had my turbo rebuilt and donor EBay turbo for the waste gate section and R&R labor for $2,750."
    • Thanks. Was going to do a more comprehensive search once I decide that I could easily replace it. 
    • Interesting on the battery issue.  I'll try to pay attention but I do believe that the issue with the keyless entry touch pads/points seems to happen mostly in the morning when first starting the car (remote start).  Though I know it has happened during the day after parking the car and then returning to it shortly thereafter.    So does this imply my battery is losing its ability to hold a charge?   Regarding the parking sensors, yes the car has side and front/rear sensors.  Car is clean so maybe faulty.

    • It is available in other regions, but they have the headlights without amber reflectors on the side.
    • Here seems to be the same button for a lower price: https://www.ebay.com/itm/235920250305
    • We have taken to the mechanic 2 times, but it fails again within 2 months.  The driver's side does not get wet.  This is getting annoying for me, as I am a former tractor-trailer Driver, who for health issues stepped away from the industry because of health issues and have not driven anything since then, so these days I am a passenger.  It leaks to a point that if I am wearing Sandals, my feet will get wet from the water depth
    • This is due to load shedding. If the battery is weak, the vehicle will slowly disable features to save power. The keyless entry touch points, except for the driver's door, may get disabled to save power.     One of the parking sensors could be dirty or faulty. Do you have the side sensing system? Sometimes the side parking sensors may get close to objects and beep.
