    Definitely a bad bulb.

    Oh yeah FordMan, I can do that in all of my spare time. heeheehee ;-). Thanks for the business. I am expecting to see a review of your new EDGE LED tail lights here when you get them in. Can't wait to see what you think of them. Dan

    By the way, our new LED taillights are brighter than the stock Ford tails.

    I know your post is from almost a year ago, but check out our plan & play total replacement LED taillights made specifically for the 2011-14 Edge: www.DAYTIMEBrightLites.com. We are working on a wire adapter to allow our new LED taillights to work with the 2008-10 Edge.

    Your bulbs are now seated correctly, but the RH bulb needs to be rotated at least a quarter turn to eliminate the return wire shadow you're seeing. The return wire running along the side of the HID bulb must be pointing to the lower half of the headlight so the shadow does not appear when the low beams are on. (light is reflected like a mirror In relation to the bulb)

    Yep, same interior lamps as the current gen Edge. My interior LED bulbs that come with the DOME-PAK work great. I have tested dozens of different styles and manufacturers and the ones I use in my opinion perform the best in the EDGE. Great brightness and color, but more importantly a nice wide and uniform beam spread. Almost as if you Have fluorescent shop light in your car. No hot spots.

    That's the exact same dome as my custom 48 LED Dome light. The DOME-PAK also comes with LED's that replace the two front map lights and one rear cargo lamp.

    Akbar, all of my LED Puddle Light Pack come with a free pair of LED replacement bulbs for the license plate lamps.

    Good choice on the black rims for the snow tires. Kind of cool being able to change the look of the EDGE so quickly and to actually serve a purpose at the same time. The snow shots are great. This will be my third winter in my SPORT. does very well in snow and ice pack. Best of luck.

    Not sure if you have the same dome light. I know the dome is the same on the 08-10 & the 11-14's. Does the dome light on my website look like the one you have? I am working on a way to adapt my new LED tail to work on the 08-10's but since the Tails on the 07's and earlier are physically different, I don't have a solution for them.

    No need to activate or deactivate anything on your Edge with my EDGE-2 DRLs. The kit comes with its own wire harness and controller that controls all of the finctions independent of the vehicle settings. The EDGE-2 DRLs will function automatically when the ignition key is turned on and off, the same as most factory DRL systems do.

    I misunderstood what my manufacturer told me. He confirmed that the photos he sent were from the LA show. We were also talking about him visiting the Tokyo Auto Salon Show in Singapore at the same time, so I thought he had taken the photo there. Good catch blitz.

    I am still waiting for a reply, but my partner just sent me these two photos in a brief email just now. I asked him where he saw this new 2015 EDGE and hope to post his reply here soon. Love the LED ribbon on the rear end. We have been looking at designing something similar for other vehicle brands.

    Sorry for taking so long to reply. Haven't been able to check the forum as often as I would like. There is a federal law, Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, that prohibits manufacturers from voiding a warranty just for installing an aftermarket product a vehicle. Take a look at this article for details: http://www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts. The installation is slightly different for the Canadian Edge with DRLs in the turn signal lights. I have attached the wiring instructions to connect the turn signal trigger wires.

    The amber light bars will flash on and off once when the doors are unlocked. The white LEDs will not come on however.

    Hey Tmood, Our EDGE-2 DRLs come with everything you need to install on your Edge that did not come with factory lights or wiring. As for installing puddle lights. do have the hole with a black round cover over it on the underside of the mirror? If you do, then you can install puddle lights. There is not any wiring, but you can run two wires from the mirrors into the car and connect them to the dome light circuit. (Be sure to add inline fuse protection to each mirror).

    Norm's absolutely correct. There is a single trigger wire that would normally connect to one of the headlight wires that triggers the DRL to automatically dim to 70% when the headlights are activated. I would encourage you to not disable the dimming feature. My EDGE-2s are incredibly bright, even at 70% dimmed. You will likely have oncoming drivers flash their lights at you. If you order a set, I would recommend going ahead and connecting the dimming trigger wire of one of the DRLs, so you can see just how bright they are when dimmed at night. You will see that they are several times brighter at 70% than the stock accent lights were.

    Looking forward to it. To do a DIY puddle light retrofit, people need to have the 3 "T"s, the Tools, the Time & the Talent. My lights are meant for those that don't have one or more of these. You will really like my puddle lights. And with the included license plate LED replacement bulbs, you will have nice and bright uniform white light surrounding your Edge when your finished.

    Hey Ms, Best of luck with the DIY. (sincerely) If you run into any problems feel free to shoot me an email at info@daytimebrightlites.com. I will be happy to walk you through it. And if something goes irreparably wrong, I have 18 sets of LED puds in stock with a 2 day delivery.
  22. kc300c
    I wish I could shed some light on the reason (pardon the pun), but I'm not certain why. All I know is that Nic unplugged the switchbacks and the EDGE-2s began functioning normally. It's a head-scratcher.

    Here's an active post discussing this. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/13177-hid-beam-pattern/?do=findComment&comment=103738

    The key is to have the return wire facing towards the lower half of the reflector. The return wire shadow will appear in reverse when shining out of the lamp. So if the wire is at the bottom left of the reflector it will show up on the upper right area outside of the lamp.

    As Dingo said, it is the driver and due to the ramping up and down of the voltage during the dimming cycle. I would suggest that you bench test your puds before you install them to make sure your LED and controller do not generate too much heat inside the pud housing. Not sure that the 1 watt LED will generate too much heat, but your controller might in combinatation with your LED. I have experimented with higher wattage LEDs in my plug and play LED puddle lights. A couple of LEDs I have tried got too hot causing the LED to fail. Granted, the puds usually only stay on for a minute or so during normal operation, but if the doors are left open, for whatever reason, the puds could remain on for 15 minutes or more until the battery saver in the vehicle automatically turns them off. And since my LED puds come with a very long warranty (as long as the customer owns the vehicle), I'm afraid that the accumulative heat effect over time will shorten the life of the lamp.
