  1. Is there an explanation somewhere about under what circumstances the Service Advancetrac light comes on?
  2. My power brake booster started making a hissing sound real bad today and the Service Advancetrac light has been coming on and off. Someone is going to have a hard time convincing me they are not connected somehow.
  3. Ford could agree to warrentee these defective latchs that are failing?
  4. You won't know if you overtightened them until you try to loosen them. I wouldn't have known if the new latch wasn't defective and I had to take it apart again.
  5. I bought the latch from the dealer and put it in myself and made the video(see link in my earlier post) of how to do it since so many seemed to be having this problem. Not only that but I had to do the job twice because the new latch was defective and wouldn't open using the outside handle
  6. I don't know about Stephanie but I brought mine to the dealer about 2 weeks ago and was quoted around $450. Mine started doing it just after the warrenty ran out and got worse over the last few months to the point it was doing it all the time. Kevin
  7. If you decide not to watch the video I made make sure you be really carefull when you tighten the "perimeter" bolts to do it by hand and not much more than finger tight. I had to do mine twice and two of the threaded inserts came loose after I tightened them the first time and I barely tighted them at all. Pain in the ass to cut the heads off the bolts and tig weld the inserts back in place. I was lucky to have everything handy to repair the inserts.
  8. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODFY9TS6GsY Here is a video I just posted on how to replace the door latch on my 2012 Edge.
  9. I just posted a video on 2012 Ford Edge Door latch replacement based on written instructions I found on the forum here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODFY9TS6GsY Hope this helps. Someone else just posted a tutorial with pics that would have been helpful. If you don't use my video just don't remove the TORX screw on the side all the way and don't tighten the bolts holding the black inner panel on more than finger tight.

  11. I just posted a video on how to replace the door latch based on written intstructions I found here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODFY9TS6GsY or you can search for 2012 ford edge door latch replacement
  12. I wish I was able to find this a week ago. I just posted a video based on some written instructions I found on the forum here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODFY9TS6GsY Or you can go to youtube and search under 2012 Ford Edge Door Latch replacement I would like to add that both your photo instructions and the written ones said you have to remove the Torx screw behind the rubber plug on the end of the door and be careful not to drop it. You just need to loosen the screw a few turns until it releases its hold on the trim piece surrounding the key lock opening.
