Kwmck started following 2012 Edge LTD Sunroof Opening - Fail and (CCP) 2012 Climate Control Panel
-
2012 Edge LTD AWD 3.2L 133000km - CCP 'AUTO' mode intermitantly will shut down (OFF) and blower speed increases to High with constant "button press feedback" beep sound. This happens in either of "Dual" control On or Off. Pressing Up (increase) heat selection will stop the feedback sound and Auto can then be reselected. I had my Ford Dealer technician use a heat gun to the rear of the CCP unit to possibly press the contacts within. The process seemed to eliminate the problem for about a month, and now it is back. beep, beep, beep. My question is did we need a bit more heat to soften up glue material inside or that is the EOL for this unit and it needs to be replaced. If replacement, what are my options. Thanks all

My 2012 Ford edge LTD sunroof has not been opened in about 1 year. Currently, the sun shade/visor(s) move fully back, and the front glass lifts fully but will not move back from that point. Holding the switch in the open position I can hear a (wheel) clicking sound... with no movement. I can close the glass followed by the sun shade closure. I have read about a reset feature of the passenger side switch, holding it forward for about 20 seconds with the power on, and I would hear a click when the Reset is complete. Is this a possability?

Yes, 2 stage does work with door handle. I had Driver door option selected, and with 2 stage, I was able to open the driver door with first pull (touch) on door handle, and open all doors with second pull (touch) on door handle. This feature stopped working a few weeks ago, and I am now wondering if it has something to do with the"Rear Left Door Ajar" false warning that I have just started to see over this time period.

Since Oct 2012, when I approached the locked vehicle, with the 1A within 3 feet, 1st pull always unlocked driver door, 2nd pull unlocked L rear & remaining doors. What would cause it to stop that process? Scenario: As i approach my 2012 Edge, I have my hands full of items to load into my locked vehicle through the L rear door. My 1A key is in my pocket. I touch the inside of the L driver door handle and it unlocks, with the 2nd subsequent touch of the inside of the L driver door handle opens all other doors. "This is the way it has worked since new! Something has changed to stop this process. What?

2012 LTD R rear door stopped opening on 2nd pull of front door handle & 1A key is within 3 fee of door. All doors lock when pressing the exterior bump of F door handle. It used to be that when I approached the locked vehicle, first pull on L Front door handle unlocked the L front door, and the second pull then unlocked the rear door. (that is one of the advantages of the 1A Intelligent Access key) Could this have anything to do with the R Rear door ajar sensor?

Dead Sync SYNC - Black Screen of Death ...
Kwmck replied to Kwmck's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
A good day! After taking only 1:10 from drop-off to ready-to-go with 100% working Sync. The dealer replaced the APIM, and I have put it through about 10 complete cycles this morning while I was out and about! I had to re-sync(pair) my bluetooth iPhone 5s , and lost all of my MAP favourites. The dealer sends the old APIM back to FORD. All in all, the FORD team went the distance. I love my ride! -

I'm going back into the dealer in the morning as they called and said the replacement unit (APIM) was now in stock. It may be new or rebuilt, but a replacement unit. -

I was at the dealer yesterday (2.5 hrs) and they have ordered a replacement APIM unit (24-48 hrs), and I then return for the R/R. My translation of the (in French) work order says that they determined a IDS Code U0253-IC, and the APIM did not pass the test ZZHR53,?! Hopefully I will have it back to 100% within days. I really do like the vehicle. This is the only mechanical issue I have had since new. -

Is there a difference between pulling fuse 29 as to disconnecting the Neg Batt lead for 10 minutes, for a reset? -
2012 Edge LTD, 33k KM, updated to V3.6.2, Sept 2013 - Jan 2014 it was working fine one day, and the next morning the Black Screen of Death. 24 hours later I removed the Neg cable from BATT, waited about 10 minutes and No change after reconnection. (Black screen, no speed control, no audio, no back-up camera, no Nav... ) Going to dealer on Monday to see if Service letter 12MO2 applies along with APIM module replacement?! Anyone have any thoughts?

Turn signal mirrors!
Kwmck replied to Dingo's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Dingo - Did your Muth mirror's fit within the confines of the outer edge of the Ford backing plate when you did your install; or did you have to shave off the edge of the plate? My Muth's are for my 12 Edge, but are too large, and will not fit within the outer edge of the plastic backing plate. Waiting to hear back from Muth. -
Buyer beware! Ford’s marketing plan was to push the envelope as to what the Next Generation of included electronics will be. My Ford Touch, Ford Sync and the included Navigation system were the result of this initiative. Clearly they did not have an understanding of the issues in this field, as witnessed by their forced workarounds and updates to My Ford Touch and Sync to get it working for the masses. The upgrade to My Ford Touch & Ford Sync forced them to supply the SD-4 Card as an update to the Navigation system or the Navigation system would have been rendered useless; thus a poor marketing tool. The SD-4 card was not a freebie as they would like you to believe. It was a repair to a system that did not work from the get-go. Navteq / HELP maps claims to have no current plans to update the Navigation database, and that the owner’s of Ford vehicles with the navigation system should contact Ford for information. I would have expected to see included updates for the warranty period of the vehicle. I paid for that!

Yes I do have the latest software, that being v3.6.2. What I am interested in is the update 'Cycle' for the SD (navigation) Card. As I indicated, I have SD-A4 Card which was issued in Jan/Feb 2013. Navteq, Ford or whoever supplies the update's must have a update cycle, which includes new streets, highway's and the like. Yearly? Every 2 years??

Along these lines... is there a Update schedule to the A4 sd card, i.e. with updated Map data, highways, roads, streets etc? and who provides these updates?
