So I continue to have issues with my Sync, again this morning, no back up camera, no radio, just a Ford logo for about a half mile until the radio came on. This is more frequent now than ever and every time I take it to Ford, they can't duplicate the failure, even with my showing them videos and pictures of the problems, they refuse to troubleshoot it any further.

No codes, just studder then either go to normal idle rpm or die. Turns out this is the purge valve. I was able to find stuff on it with the Google. Oddly enough, last month, I also got a letter from Ford about the purge valve issue and to bring the vehicle in and they will replace it at no charge. It's under the 3/36 still anyways. UPDATE: The letter I got from Ford for a defective purge valve is actually for my 2018 Focus, which has never showed any signs of an issue. My Edge still wants to die at idle after fueling up, haven't had time to get to the dealer.

Turns out it was a failing battery. I replaced the battery in mine yesterday, it was getting all kinds of battery save messages popping up on Fordpass and the infotainment screen. Radio would shut off as soon as the vehicle was shut off, etc... After the battery swap, all chimes are back to what they were prior, nothing over amplified now like before, no more shutting down to save power message. I wonder if this has been the issue with my back up camera being inop when powered on and radio not coming on when starting the vehicle. I placed a volt meter on the battery and pressed the Start button to play radio and the voltage reading went from 12.5V-ish to lower 11V in seconds. Battery was only 26 mos old. Engine running voltage to battery is 14.5+.

Thank you for the replies. I'll pay closer attention to where to chime is coming from, it did sound local to the dash area and not the sound system, but no signs of a battery issue, been starting and running fine and radio plays a while when not running the engine. Still under bumper to bumper, only 24,000 miles on it. I have to take it in for the purge valve or something fuel related since it has started dying and rough idling after gassing up now.

Observation only...I think my 22 Edge SEL did an update overnight or something, when I started it this morning, there was something on the screen that went away pretty quick, then I noticed the seat belt chime was annoyingly louder than normal and the red seat belt light looked brighter and the check backseat tone was also louder than normal when I shut the vehicle off.

Thanks!

Recent issue just started with my 22 2.0L ecoboost, 23,000 miles, sometimes during idle at a stop light or whatever, the engine with stumble and RPM's drop around 300 then it idles back up then it will do it again a few seconds later, then go away, engine at operating temp, start/stop in turned off. Not throwing a code. Thanks!

Thanks! Been to the dealer twice, they aren't any help. Also the bluetooth connection to the phone is bad, everytime you receive or make a call, you have to hangup and call back.

I have a '22 Edge SEL, sometime late spring or early summer Sync did an update and now my backup camera will not always function and the stereo will be powered off when I start the vehicle. Eventually the system will power on on its own, since the power button is also inoperable when this occurs. Also the bluetooth connection when making and receiving calls is badly broken up or non-existent. I can only blame the latest update since everything worked fine before the update. I took it to the dealer last evening since I'm well inside the 3/36. I'm sure they won't find anything, but I had plenty of pictures to show them of the issue with the vehicle in reverse and no backup camera, just a black screen.

I took my 22 SEL in Saturday for regular maintenance and they told me there was a PCM recall/update to do with driveability they would go ahead and do while in. I told the service guy that since the last Sync update, I lose my rear camera and sometimes the stereo is off completely when I start it and it takes a good mile or so down the road until it powers on. I showed him pics of the vehicle in reverse with a black screen and no working camera. This has happened at least a dozen or more times. Also the bluetooth is glitchy playing music and using the hands free phone it drops audio and is very choppy.

Are these updates for the 12" screen I guess? I haven't looked at my version. What are some things to look for? Personally looking down too long to adjust the fan speed and climate temp is a pain. Thanks!

Hey all, I have a 22 SEL AWD, what has anyone done to improve the night time back up visibility if anything? LED's are horrible and overall visibility is too dark. If its raining, forget it. This is the worst night time back up camera I've had on a vehicle. If posted somewhere else, please direct me there. TIA!

Sub install complete.

Thank you very much for posting this! I was hoping for the wiring bundle to be under the sill plate, oh well. I did get power run through the passenger side of the firewall ok if I didn't mention that.

Before I pull the door sill plates, does anyone know if the speaker wiring is routed under the sill plates like many vehicles or is the Edge different? Thanks!
