    • Ambient Lighting The ambient lighting subsystem consists of the BCM, and the Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) located within the floor console, front and rear door panels, instrument panel and front and rear footwell areas. The ambient lighting is operational when the ignition is in any state other than OFF (the exception is when it is used in conjunction with the illuminated entry/exit features), the headlamps are on and the outside ambient light level is low. The BCM provides the voltage to the ambient lighting system, while the touchscreen ( FDIM) is used to cycle through the different color variations or turn the ambient lighting feature on or off. A LIN circuit is routed from the BCM to all of the Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). There are 3 Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) (red, blue and green) housed within each LED assembly. By illuminating various color combinations, the Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are able to produce different colors of ambient light. The APIM uses software to monitor the user interface from the touchscreen. Based on the ambient lighting system selections made using the touchscreen, the APIM sends ambient light color request and ambient light intensity request messages over the communication network for color and brightness settings. The BCM retains the last color and brightness setting between uses. For 2021+ the factory option is single color Ice Blue.
    • I'd have to go back and check, but I recall the TSB's aren't mandatory whereas the safety recalls are.   NHTSA vehicle safety recalls are mandatory, not voluntary, if a defect poses an unreasonable safety risk or fails to meet federal standards Check for Recalls: Vehicle, Car Seat, Tire, Equipment | NHTSA 
    • Just a heads up, when you lift the spoiler off ( and it is best to work with your hands to push up on the clips) you will break one or two. Use W716328S300-Flanged Nut Bumper Cover to replace them. 20 bucks for a pack of 4. There is one on both left and right about 10 inches from the center, and 2 in the center about 6-7 inches from the edge. Mark the top with tape over the clips for a quick guide and it easily snaps back down. The Dorman replacement was only 42 bucks on Amazon.
    • You do not need access to OASIS to find any recalls or TSBs related to your vehicle.  A simple internet search for 2020 Ford Edge ST TSBs and safety recalls will provide you with that list.   As to which TSBs / safety recalls have been performed on your particular vehicle, you may not be able to get that answer simply because if they were performed, the dealer most likely never documented them.  That was my personal experience when I checked these for my car and discussed them with my former dealer..   TIP:  If you compile a complete list of TSBs / safety recalls on your car, and you take that list to your dealer, don't be surprised if you piss them off.  According to my former Ford dealer, they do not have to perform any TSBs UNLESS your car is actively having an issue related to a specific TSB.  Safety recalls are different and they have to perform safety recalls.     As far as the 2020 Ford Edge ST, I have found zero safety recalls that affect my car.     I just noticed you are in Poland.  Maybe you have better dealers there than in the U.S.
    • I was confused with your original post.  I thought you wanted to replace the actual sunroof panel seal, not the sunshade cable.   Quite honestly, this took me 15 seconds to find.     https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+replace+ford+edge+sunroof+shade&t=h_&ia=web   This will provide you with lots of options on the Ford Sunshade repair.
    • Thanks for the details, it's very much appreciated. However, I should have phrased my question differently. I was asking for a car wash detergent brand, not a brand of power washer. Sorry, my bad. Ed
    • In my personal opinion, Honda makes the best engines (found in the better off brands.)    As far as for use on cars, use only the white (or black)   pressure washer tips.    With gas powered pressure washers, the tips are color coated indicating their spray angle. The spray angle determines the cleaning pressure.    The color codes are:    Red for 0°, (heavy blasting, you could cut steel),    Yellow for 15° (for tough cleaning)    Green for 25° (general cleaning)    White for 40° (delicate surfaces) and    Black for 65° (mainly for use with or detergents or rinsing the soap off).    There are a bunch of accessories you can buy for use with a power washer when washing cars. I have several, such as a foam cannon, wheel cleaner and final rinse solution thingie. Plenty of YouTube videos on this subject.    Always use low pressure for cars and wood; higher pressures on concrete. Have a special attachment for cleaning driveway and patio. What used to take 4-5 hours, now only takes one. It's a rotary brush surface scrubber. (Buy the Yamaha brand, lot of Chinese junk sold on Amazon. Pay a little extra, worth it. Mine is 15 or 20 years old, still looks and works, like new.)   As for the pressure sprayer itself, I bought mine at Sam's Club 15-20 years ago. (They usually carry top quality products that you can depend on.)   Mine's an off brand, brand is Simpson, has 2800 psi @ 3.2 gpm which is plenty for my needs.   I bought it because it had a Honda overhead cam engine, and it has ran perfectly over the years. Starts easily, every time. Even with year-old gas. (That should trigger a bunch of thou-shalt-not's ... grin)  
    • Take it to your dealer. They can $read$ the code in the cars computer. 
    • ● You check your tire pressure. ● You check your transmission fluid level. ● You check your coolant level. ● You check your power steering fluid level. ● You check your brake fluid level. ● You check your oil level. ● You check your engine air filter. ● You check your cabin filter. ● You check your seat filter. ● You check your exterior. lights to verify everything's working.   ...... What are you forgetting?   ....... What's the one thing you should be checking but haven't since .... ????         •• Tire pressure of the spare tire, hidden away in the trunk.   🚗....
