    As per this article: http://www.caranddriver.com/news/2015-ford-edge-official-photos-and-info-news

    Check that the rear sensor (behind the mirror) is clear & not blocked. It is supposed to measure the ambient lighting to determine when its daylight so that the mirror does no dim & when its night the mirror would dim. For the map lights, during the night (or rear sensor blocked), yes, the map light will cause the mirror to dim. But during daylight they the mirror will not dim.

    From the Owners Manual (2007) quoted below, notice the following: "coolant temperature gauge will move to the red (hot)", so it seems neither of you have reached the level that causes the Fail-Safe Cooling to kick in. Also, from this part "If the engine coolant supply is depleted", it indicates that the temperature reading is NOT the coolant fluid's temperature, rather it is the actual temperature of the Engine Head or Block.

    If you see the linked photo, on the left side of the cargo area above the storage compartment there seems to be a hook shaped slot that's looks to be where a retractable cargo cover connects. http://blogs-images.forbes.com/matthewdepaula/files/2014/07/15fordedge-titanium_26_hr.jpg

    Sorry, forgot to add the link. It was supposed to be the same one ls973800 posted. The TPMS uses the same receiver as the remote door locks, hence the same frequency (as far as I know).

    When they are showing different readings, switch the units to Fahrenheit & you'll see that they would have the same reading. Switch back to Celsius & they would be different. This would always happen at the same specific temperature readings, for example at 87 Fahrenheit, the main screen reads 30 degree Celsius and the right cluster screen will read 31. Convert the units to Fahrenheit, then both screens will read the same 87 degree Fahrenheit. When both screens read 30 Celsius, change units back and both will read 86 degree Fahrenheit. The same scenario also happens at some different temp readings.

    Put your VIN in the below link, then check in the details of equipment, you'll find either 315 or 433.

    Because officially the puddle lamps are replaced as an assembly, you will have to open the lamp housing to replace the bulb inside it. It's a fairly simply process.

    Yes, seems I was incorrect. I was unable to find the info I thought I read before. It seems to be for the tires and they would be covered by its manufacturer.

    ANDERSONBD, I would suggest going to a different dealer. 1st, the battery pro-rate replacement warranty should be applicable if it's written on the battery. If I remember correctly, it was also mentioned in the warranty guide (re-read it & did not find it). 2nd, for the door latch, there is a TSB telling dealers how to fix it without replacement. (attached). . TSB 14-0011 Door Ajar Lamp Remains Illuminated With Doors Closed 2011-13 Edge_MKX.pdf

    Take it to the dealer. Good luck with AlMana Motors!!

    I would guess that the fleet only daytime lights are the old fashioned type using the headlights, while the configurable ones uses LED. Or that simply the fleet option is non configurable (always on).
  13. omar302
    Your lights might be aimed too low. Try to align them or raise them a bit, it's easy & explained in the manual. This thread might also help in how to: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/6077-2011-hid-vertical-adjuster/

    Among the standard equipment for the SE (should also be applicable to all other trims) under "Exterior" are "Configurable Daytime Running Lamps".

    Swalker, 1) Yes, the system does revert the auto dim setting with ambient lights. That's what I have been facing from a long time. The display reverts to full brightness and I would have to switch the mode to night then back to auto to get it back to my setting. 2) I didn't read about the issue from anyone else, so I guess it won't be fixed in the update because there aren't many who noticed it. 3) The APIM, which is the brains of MyFord Touch has an extended warranty to 5 years from purchase date without any mileage limitations. Lincolns are extended 1 more year (6 years).

    Go for a color matching your exterior color otherwise it would look out of context.

    Congrats on the new order, hopefully you get it fast & enjoy it. Could you share the order guide? Couldn't find it yet.

    There are 2 TSBs that address an issue of A/C not maintaining correct interior temperature. TSB 13-10-13 & TSB 11-08-07 (one supersedes the other), the solution is to reprogram the HVAC module. Sorry I don't have a copy now. If I remember correctly, it's for the 2011 and maybe 2012 models.

    If it's not too much trouble, please do post it, I'm sure it will be helpful for many.
  20. omar302
    I don't know the technical details, but I do know that even with the A/C on, when the ambient temperature is above ~30 Celsius, the fans will be at a higher speed (very loud) compared to when it is less than 30 Celsius (much qu). So even if the A/C is on, it does not always mean that the fans are at full speed. .

    Scott, as per the TSB, it is clearly mentioned that the technician may not be able to reproduce the problem, hence I would blame the dealer for their incompetence in finding the solution when the vehicle was under warranty. Also dealers usually can get approvals for warranty repairs after it expires if the symptoms were present before. It shows again how this dealer is at fault. I would suggest going to the service manager and/or dealer owner and explain what happened.

    For the front map lights & glove box I used these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AIJY2ZM/ For the rear dome & cargo lights I used these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009NOZ5AY/ For the door mirror puddle lights I used these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009NOZ5BI/ Reverse light: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H8YAX1W I went with the above because of the brand (Philips & Sylvania). Note that you need to make sure you get the 6000K version to get the bright cool white color.

    chipworkz, Thanks a lot for the info. I did not know or expected the "Battery Monitoring System (BMS) Reset". How is it rest with the scan tool? Can it be reset without it and without having to wait 8 hours?

    First, it's an 8" touch screen, not 5". As for the different readings, it seems to be due to a different rounding when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius. If you convert the units to English (in the left screen settings) you'll find that both would have the sstreading in Fahrenheit even when they were different in Celsius. The different readings always occur at the same temperature readings. I have previously highlighted this to the Ford IVT member in this forum, but they directed me to the Middle East Ford customer service which useless. Hope you'll be able to highlight it better as it is a simple software issue.
