Hello, Thanks for the video. I have a 2020 Ford Edge ST Line and purchased the Dongar power adapter and found that I have 5 wires but the connector is a 6 pin connector with one not being utilized. its empty. This came from the factory like this. I thought it might be because of the rain sensor but I have only found 3 wire adapters when you have rain sensors. Any ideas? Thanks!
I remember the questions on how a PCM update could affect coolant intrusion on the 1.5 in the Escape, and many didn't get it done. Fast forward to them getting coolant intrusion and not being eligible for the one time block replacement because they didn't get the PCM update (it was speculated that they were going to lower the boost and other things). I guess that SSM had more details, that it kept the electric coolant pump going longer after shut down, but still I made sure I got it done. I guess this one and caring if emissions output is worse than it should be matters.
The recall was also inclusive of my 2018 Ford Edge, unsure what other years it extends to. My initial response was also to question the effect this "fix" would have on my performance. Interested to hear further feedback...
I'd try to figure out which wire in the headlight harness powers the shield that opens and closes to see if it's getting power. Not sure if it has it's own fuse.
I got this notice as well for my 2015 Edge. It just so happens that the check engine light has periodically come on and off and am getting codes P2196 and P2198. Could this be a new Mass Air Flow Sensor or a new vapor canister purge valve is needed? Or could reprogramming the power control module possible fix this check engine light coming on? Any thoughts on this?
Legal Towing capacity is 1500lb no matter what brand or who installs it.
Only way to legally increase capacity is to buy a different Edge that came from the factory with tow package.
Awesome!!! Thank you!! So I'm thinking of going to a location on base here and seeing if they can bleed off the refrigerant for me. I can do that and drive it back home without damage to the compressor right? The compressor should failsafe seeing there's no refrigerant and not engage? Really don't want to buy an AC compressor.
I'll have them recharge it when I'm done.
Haz, I'll look over all the docs and make sure I get everything.
Thinking through all this, would it be a problem going with the 210A alternator in place of the 175A? I would think that the car will only draw what it needs as it needs it. So that will be a cakewalk for accessories. Just trying to make sure there is not going to be any issue. I at first was wanting to make sure I got all the facts, now I'm wanting to see if I can facilitate the bigger alternator.
One more quick question... So, the guy in that Ford Fusion video said the tensioner pulley bolt was reverse threaded, aka, righty-tighty actually loosened tension...is that the case or no?
All this and now, I need to replace the brakes because they are grinding..... I need beer...
Woohoo carworking weekend is coming!!!
Seriously, if anyone wants to bring their Edge over and help me do all this and then I'll help them with work they have, we'll make a party of it!!
