Which canbus ballast are you using? I tryed the TRS canbus with their ballast and it didn't work well. Can you post more details? If your setting is working well I wil follow your setup. The DRL make me crazy. And I'm still have problem with DRL.

I tryed both. The canbus is useless for Edge. At least the TRS canbus is useless. We do need a relay. The edge fuse can not handle even 35W HID. I still have DRL problem (flickering) even on relay harness.

My car is 11 Edge SEL and it has DRL and auto light control. Here are all the configurations that I've tryed. Configuration 1: 35W TRS kit with CANBUS harnesses. Factory harness -> CANBUS -> ballast. Problem: Sometime doesn't fire up and DRL flickering. Blow the cars fuse once. Some times have to switch the light off/on to fire the HID. Configuration 2: 35W TRS kit with factory harnesses. Factory harness -> ballast Same problems. Blow the fuse again. Sometimes even switch the light off/on can not fire the HID. Have to restart the car to fire it up. That means the factory harness (at lease the fuse) can NOT handle the HID. Even it's 35W. Then I order the relay harnesses from the TRS. And still have problems. Configuration 3: 35W TRS kit with relay harnesses. Factory harness -> Relay trigger. HID powered from battery. HID always fire up. But DRL doesn't work. Its flickering and then turn off. I can hear the relay buzz loud. Configuration 4: Factory harness -> CANBUS -> Relay trigger. HID powered from battery. Same problems as configuration 3. Nothing good nothing worse. Then I search the internet and lots of perple say I need a capacitor. Still waiting the capacitor and I will post the result after I install the capacitor. Now I switch the light switch to Auto and use a black tape to cover the light sensor to cheat the car never go to DRL mode. At least I don't get flickering DRL and have all the lghts on instead. So the result is: The CANBUS is useless for the Edge. We do need relay harnesses even for 35W HID. DRL still have problem. To fix it: Add capacitor (Need comfirm). Ask dealer to switch the DRL to amber light. Or cover the light sensor and set the light to Auto. Edit: Good news: All problems soved by add a 2200uF capacitor. The DRL and auto light are all work well. Some tricks: 1. The 4700uF capacitor is too big. It cause the HID fire for about less than decond than shut down. I use two 4700uF capacitors make series connection to make it about 2350uF and it works. I use two 4700uF is just because I don't have 2200uF capacitor in hand. Glad I brought two 4700uF capacitors. 2. The capacitor negative pin can NOT connect to the ground. It must be connected to the factory harnesses negative wire. It doesn't damage your car but it doesn't work. The factory harnesses negative wire is not ground at all. The TRS capacitor harnesses doesn't work on the Ford Edge. It requires the capacitor negative pin connect to the ground. And I'm not sure if it uses a 2200uF capacitor. I guess the 1100uF capacitor should works as well. But I didn't try it.
