Fordedge2013sel Posted Monday at 12:15 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 12:15 PM (edited) My battery died and I replaced it this time adding terminal protectors I purchased with the battery. Since replacement the traction control off light is on (I go into settings but it won’t let me switch it to on), the stability control system light is on, the powertrain malfunction/ reduced power light is on, and my car is having trouble shifting (I have driven it 30 miles after reading that the computer just needed to relearn after losing power). I don’t know what to do. Edited Monday at 12:21 PM by Fordedge2013sel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabangsta Posted Monday at 04:31 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 04:31 PM I would disconnect the battery again, and either touch the two battery cable ends together (battery is disconnected!) or turn on a high draw item (headlights), or leave them off for 5 minutes, then reconnect it. Your vehicle should have a BMS (Battery Management System) that needs reset. I have not seen a procedure for this on your year Edge (I have done this with my 2017 Escape and 2015 Fusion). I never had any luck with the 8 hours of sitting overnight to reset it (my auto start/stop was still disabled, for example). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
