One of our friends had this issue with his 2012 Edge and he replaced the driver's door latch ($130 part) that was faulty himself. Some owners suggest cleaning and lubricating the latch with a spray. ![]() There are plenty of YouTube videos describing the problem and repair options. It's not a very expensive repair, however there are a few reports that the problem came back after the repair. The TSB repair procedure involves cleaning the switch using a special tool that most likely only Ford dealers have. A door ajar sensor that is built into the door latch might be the cause of the problem. The TSB 18-2013 covers the issue of the door ajar lamp illuminated with all doors closed, draining the battery in the 2011-2013 Ford Edge. The diagnostic procedure in the bulletin involves checking the resistance between the transmission connector pins and if the resistance is out of specs, the transmission range sensor must be replaced. For example, the backup camera may not work intermittently if the sensor cannot detect that the transmission is in Reverse. The transmission range sensor tells the transmission computer what gear the shifter is in. The Ford TSB 10-21-02 for the 2009-2011 Edge describes a problem with the transmission range (TR) sensor that can cause various transmission problems, such as slipping/neutral out, 5th gear start from stop, electronic PRNDL error, backup camera on in Drive or speed control dropping out intermittently.

The PTU doesn't have a drain plug, but according to several owners, the gear oil can be sucked out and changed through the fill plug. Signs of a leak from the PTU include thick black fluid drops in the area to the back of the engine in the middle of the car and a bad smell of burnt gear oil coming from under the car. Many owners at various forums and on YouTube suggest checking the PTU regularly for leaks and changing the oil in the PTU more often.
