2015 Edge Sport Towing
enigma-2 replied to built2prfctn's topic in Cargo, Hauling, Roof Racks & Towing
Speaking only for my 09 MKZ, my OEM hitch wiring terminates in a standard female connector. I can't imagine any installation which would leave wires dangling. This is a dangerous area (for damage to wiring), and damaged wires can cause a car fire. All installations must terminate in a female connector and the wires protected from damage. Anything else is amateur hour. -

I wonder if one were to build a shield over the back of the sensor (blocking the heat of the engine) would partially correct the problem?

2016 Edge rear wiper
enigma-2 replied to Livestrong16's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Never really liked the spray. Went back to Rain-X in the bottle (liquid). More work to put on, but worth the extra effort imo. -

Mark Fields. Ahhh, so they DO do special paint! LOL -
If anyone else wants to expirment with this, first tune the cell phone to the cable channel, then press MEDIA and select bluetooth input. On the bluetooth screen, select bt audio. The cell phone must have its audio set to bluetooth and be connected to SYNC.

Talk to the dealer first. It might be possible to order a Titanium and omit the sunroof. (Special order). Even custom paint is (or used to be) available on special order (at extra cost). From a purely personal point, I love the roof open. -
2016 Edge rear wiper
enigma-2 replied to Livestrong16's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
You know, I don't see why a 14" blade designed for the 14-15 MKX wouldn't work on your 16. Does the 16 look physically different? My 09 is just a simple flat, 14" snap-on blade. I looked for a Rain-X for your 2016 and read that the Rain-X blade has Rain-X in the blade. Believe I'll try this on my next change. -
Okay, just figured it out. Had to go through the media button on the radio, select the bt source and audio. Works, can now watch CNN (for example - actually have 32 channels, FX, Science, AMC, etc.) and the audio plays through the system. Not that I would watch TV while driving but nice the have while waiting for wife while she shops. (Grunt)

Rear windows are hard to keep clean. Before replacing the blade (and running into the same problem with a different blade), try cleaning this one first. Run a wet rag over the rubber and clean the crap that builds up on them. You'll be surprised as to how much gunk will be on your rag afterwards. I use Rain x on the rear window to slow the dirt buildup. Driving around the Midwest for the last few weeks, through snow melted from salt and slush, has worn off all my Rain X and mine streaks as well. Keeping the rubber clean is the key to keep it from streaking. (mostly). -
Do they look like acid etching? Acid rain is really bad here in Northern Indiana because of the steel mills over near Gary. Once etched, very difficult to remove. Try chrome polish. I've used bug and tar remover with good results. If it looks like rust stains, try Bar Keepers Friend.

Kind of sounds like it's not moving all the way. Think I would start be spraying WP40 all around the latch area and operate it several times.

Check your GPS fuse, #26. It's in the 2nd column from the left, 4th from the bottom. It's a 5 amp fuse. To test, you can substitute another 5 amp fuse from #31; which is an unused spare. The spare is in the 3Rd column, 2nd from the top.

The phone's audio is switched to the bluetooth port. The problem is, the car'Stadio is not playing this bluetooth audio. (I know I can switch it back and play it through the cell, but would rather play it through the car's audio system). Beginning to think that this can't be done on gen 1.

D/l a graphic from: http://www.patriots.com/fan-zone/fan-downloads and downsize it using Photo shop or simular. -
Problem is, I also use the phone when in the car to connect to the radar detector. (Connects to the cloud and displays on map location of all police units running radar in a 50 (or wharever) mile radius. Phone tracts the detector and mirrors voice on overspeed, etc.

Was driving home from a day shopping, and thought I'd watch CNN and how the voting was going. Flipped on CNN and as soon as the cell phone picked up CNN (linked to my cable supplier) the bluetooth linked with the head unit and the audio went silent on the phone. (Had live video, no sound.) Apparently my audio is being channeled to bluetooth. To pickup audio, I used the CNN feed on Sirius. But I would like to have the feed from the cell phone as there's a 30 second delay between the cable video feed and Sirius. How do I get the audio feed from my cell (gen 1).
