    • Thanks @omar302   Now that you mention it I can see what appears to be that "sock" without pulling the upholstery up.   I only use the seat cooling for 5 minutes max 10 minutes and can feel the seat cooling and very minimal on the backrest - I can hear the backrest fan running.   Now to search for the MacGyver fix for  the exhaust.
    • The fix posted is only for the intake side so that it can take in cooler air. But the exhaust would remain to the seat back cavity, so eventually the seat back will heat up to a point where it can no longer be cooled by the TED. The best fix is to have both, intake & exhaust routed outside the seat back.    However, your Edge is a 2017 model. Midway in 2016 Ford added a "sock" for the intake so it can take in air from under the seat. So your Edge is good on the intake side. To improve your seat back cooling you need the exhaust side. Unfortunately, the guy (Tim) who used to sell those kits doesn't seem to sell them anymore. But I remember some F150 owners making their own fixes using duct tape and tubing. But I couldn't find any searching now.    Also, the F150 thread you linked talks about another issue some are facing with their seats, it is an electrical issue, if it happens causes the whole cooling/heating function to stop.

Don't be shy, guys!                                                                                                                                                                                                    https://forum.forscan.org/viewtopic.php?t=30415
    • Hi, I have a 2013 edge sport. Yesterday I noticed the rear parking lights were on. The lights are automatic so I don’t touch them. The front lights are off. I tried turning off at the switch to no avail. Can anyone help with this please?   Thank you
    • Welcome.   I don't expect any of those codes would inhibit a crank but might inhibit it firing.   I bought one like the below linked off eBay for around $20 - it's monochrome and would love the color versions but have heard that they're real expensive.   2015 FORD Edge Electrical Wiring Diagrams Diagram Service Shop Manual EWD OEM  
    • I have a 2015 for Edge with a no-crank, no-start issue with the following codes:   p0073, p0122, p0223, p0740, p1289   tracing wires from the temp sensor & throttle position sensor back to the ecu:  wiring is good. These were the easiest to get to and test.   Which wiring diagram suppliers do you recommend ordering from?   thank you.
    • Ran across this video and remembered your post. May or May not help.   (BTW, this can happen to any car. Its mostly environmental and caused when the rubber lines its crosslinking and reverts to its original form.)   Caused by high values of UV, ozone and high humidity. You can prevent this by periodically wiping all of your weatherstripping with 303.   (It's what I use, and there are other products, but this is the best.)    
    • After all  these years and summer almost here I'm looking at improving the backrest cooling.   See below F150 thread on the topic - is this still the best option? I downloaded the 3D printer file from the link and will ask a friend to print it for me. https://www.f150forum.com/f118/heated-cooling-seat-fix-upgrade-preventative-fix-440863/index12/     https://www.mcmaster.com/6519N15/
    • Sometimes when you replace the vehicle battery the temporary loss of power can cause various control modules (such as the ones you mentioned) to corrupt their nonvolatile memory.   There's a couple of things you can try, first (as you mentioned) drive around at a steady speed of 25–30 mph for several minutes. This will usually allow the ABS module to relearn its calibration. Then with the car still running and in park, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and right (lock-to-lock). This should reset the steering angle sensor.   A second method is to disconnect one of the battery cables and then trun on the headlights. (They won't come on, but the load should discharge the internal capacitors located in the integrated modules. Leave the battery disconnected for 10 minutes. When reconnecting the battery lead, don't allow the cable to "touch and break" (that is throw sparks.) This causes a voltage "hash" to flow through the car's modules and screw up the modules memories. Always just press the battery cable connector down tight to the battery post (not necessarily connected) and then keep it in contact with the post while you work it on and tighten.   Making sparks during a connection sends voltage spikes through the modules through the "keep alive power" feeds. Bad for car, great in bed. 😗🎶  
    • Had to look this one up. Here's what I found.    The icon usually appears when playing media from a connected device such as a USB drive or a Bluetooth-paired phone.   The system cycles through three distinct states. Oval (Off) Plays your current playlist or album normally and stops after the last track. Horizontal U-turn (Repeat All) Continuously loops the entire current folder, album, or playlist. Oval with a "1" (Repeat One)  Continuously loops only the specific song currently playing.
