What do you need to install Nav from 6CD in 2008 Edge with Sync


Recommended Posts

I just bought a 2008 New Navigation off ebay. no disc, No antenna. The disc I'm ok with as I know how to use torrents. However do i require anything else other then the head unit? Will i need to buy another antenna?

 

Currently I have a 6CD AM/FM radio with Sync in a 2008 Edge Limited AWD.

 

Thanks

You'll may need to get it programmed depending on if the vehicle it came from had the high end audio (Audiophile), a factory subwoofer, etc. and yours doesn't or vise versa. Just have to plug it in and try to see if things work or not. You may get lucky and not have to mess with it. I'm not sure how the SYNC works or if needs to be seperately programmed if you swap head units. As for the antenna, the one I got is a short-cable one that fits up inside the dash behind the radio. It's out of sight and doesn't require running and hiding any antenna cable. The Ford part number for it is 8G1Z-10E893-B

Hi, My car is a 2008 Edge Limited AWD loaded except for Nav, The factory Sub woofer came with stock radio. The Nav I bought is 8E5T-18k931-AD which is a Pioneer AVN Audiophile NAV system from a 2008 Ford Fusion.

 

I now know i need the Satellite Antenna but where can I get it programmed?

 

Do i have to get it programmed in my edge or the edge programmed for the radio?

 

Thanks for the help!

Just take a read through my topic. On the second page there is a link to an Ebay store that shows where I got my programming done. You send him the head unit and your vehicle specs and he does the rest....

Thanks, Your post was helpful but My O8 edge had sync and bluetooth so a few other problems.

 

At this point, I had a Car Audio store install the unit for me for $50, there are two funny screws at the top of the bezel under the rubber matt that I don't have tools for so FU it!. I would rather pay the $50 then look around all day!

 

Sync works, bluetooth works. Steering wheel buttons don't work and Sub woofer is not active.

 

Next Navigation I will now take it to ford to have them flash it.
