I replaced the rear camera on my '12 Edge a few years ago. The camera works fine but I lost the guidelines. Tried correcting it with Forscan but never got it to take. Short of taking it to Ford for programming, which isn't worth the effort, do you have any suggestions? Car has 229k and I used a new Ford camera.
Scott, have you ever thought about being a teacher? the high school in my town desperately needs an auto shop teacher. Wisconsin has a great retirement system, plus you can get out of libtard illinois.
@@jackbaker9401 @jackbaker9401 thanks for the suggestion. I made sure they were on when I installed the camera and I double checked it after your post. Still no joy. If it gets to bugging me enough maybe I'll try the camera he listed, it's cheap enough.
Nice weather to be working outdoors. This is one job I would feel confidant in tackling. The fragility of the studs could be scary but you gave us plenty of warning to be carful with them. Now all I need is a Ford Edge with an inop camera. Always a please to watch your video's. 👍👍👍
My camera went out on my 14 Explorer Sport. For laughs, I priced a new one at Ford. $539ish cdn. Haha! I got a good one from Amazon for like $100; works great, had great reviews.
Solid repair Scott! It does seem like a lot of work just for the camera, but that’s modern cars. Also, I finally ordered my shirt. It says it’s “in production.”
Don't know if you noticed Scott but your workbench has a far king big hole in it that may even be bigger than the bench. 😱 *Thank you* for the video. Much appreciated! 👍
Our Ford Explorer has been doing this for a few years. Think ours might have a corroded connector. Seems that Explorers like to leak in the tailgate. Just haven’t gotten around to checking it 😬
The ford edge and MKX from this era are actually really reliable, I had a 2009 MKX with 245,000 miles sold it to a friend and bought a 2015 MKX which I now have at 150,000 miles with no issues.
Amenities are great till they break. These options make people lazy to learn to use mirrors. Scott great work as always. Have a great rest of your day. Stay safe and be well.
amazing that I did not but saw another driver park crosswise on a parking space I was lucky realized my error before I completed the maneuver btw new autos have no view out of rear window just like when I towed a travel trailer that's when you want a pull thru parking space.
Great video. I’m having intermittent issue with the camera. Lately mostly not working. When it does work the picture is fine. How can I tell if issue is camera, connection or possibly at gear shift? Thanks for any advice you can give me.
Vehcor I follow your channel all the time you are always so thorough on your repairs. My kind of guy my question is I have a 2017 GMC Denali 1500 and the front camera is not working system not working. Just wondering if you had some quick troubleshooting ideas or where I should look for the problem it keeps showing up on my dash thanks.
Hey Scott! Good evening to you. This has been very informative as per usual. Is Mr Spotty’s driving an Edge now? How has he been handling things since the fire? See you soon. 😊
Having intermittent issue with camera. When it does not work I see same msg you showed at beginning of this video. My wife ordered a new camera and put the project on my honey do list. What other problem do I need to worry about with intermittent issue? 2011 edge
I just replaced the camera in my Father's 2014 Transit Connect a few weeks ago. That plastic trim panel that secures the camera, latch, and license plate light has supports (that mount to the tailgate) that are already cracking off, considering that about 6 years ago the entire thing broke off and I already replaced it with another new OEM part. Not sure if you've seen that problem. I see so much subpar, cheap crap with Fords these days, yuck! But all of the auto manufacturers are like that! The cheapest, lightest materials that do not last!
Transit connects are utter junk. And this is coming from someone that drives a Promaster City. 😂 All the little imported vans are horrible. Chevy, Ram or Ford, you sacrifice reliable for usefulness and economy.
@@vehcor I bought a '17 Transit Connect in '20. The dealer probably got it at auction. It was a former Johnson Controls/Tyco fleet vehicle, upfitted with shelves etc. Must've been a manager's van cuz the shelves were still shiny 😂 I'd always wanted something like it since becoming a cable guy 18 yrs ago, but it sucks ass in the winter, and the torque converter has been shuddering for a while now. I really should try a fluid change ASAP. I regret buying it.
@@vehcor My Father's tastes are questionable at best, and believe it or not, he owned a brand new 2013 TC first that was totaled and then he bought a lightly used 2014 TC after that. Both of them have second row seating and glass, he bought them as a personal vehicle rather than work vehicle. They are not very comfortable vehicles either.
Its been awhile since I took my drivers license test, are you still required to use your mirrors and physically look behind you when reversing, or can you just use a camera and call it a day PASS?
Trash cans make wonderful work benches just make sure the can is empty,hate looking through trash for a flying Jesus clip,thanks for the video much appreciated🤗😎🤗😎
This thing is shockingly similar to my 2002 Acura MDX. It seems like every "crossover" in the past couple of decades is trying to copy that car. lol My grandpa always called them 'jelly beans"; because they all look the same, just in different colors.
I am a bit dim so would someone tell me why when the car moved forward the camera didn't turn off? The camera in my Toyota always turns off as soon as I take gearbox out of reverse.
Right... All intentional. I mean part availability should be infinite. And when they decide that is not reasonable it is completely unreasonable for back order events to occur as production ends.
11mm or 7/16"? Pretty much the same size, but it depends on the thread on the bolt as to whether it's metric or imperial. Metric bolts don't usually have 11mm heads, mostly 10mm or 12mm, but I did have some 12mm nuts with 18mm heads, that's a 3/8" Whitworth head size. Weird.
@vehcor I mean videos of rebuilding them. .I know after the place burnt up you were gonna let us know what all happened wit that and that rebuilds were on hold for now and you went to taking about the cars that people are butchering and trying to run back through auction

Thank you!! Took me about an hour but I’m not a car guy. I just kept replaying certain parts. I appreciate you!
Glad it helped!
I can't believe you repaired Mr. Spottys car. 🙈😅🤣
Someone has to do it, he never does anything. 😂
Great seeing the 20,000 views on this video. I'm happy when the good channels do well. tHanks for the video

Love the ..uh….’work’ bench….i also use mine as a portable paint booth!
It works fine until you drop something and have to play hide and seek. 😂
Nice seeing you swing your tools again 😃
Whoop whoop. Great your snarky humor again>...😊😊😊😊
Great “how to” guide, Scott!
Glad it was helpful!
Solid repair Scott! It does seem like a lot of work just for the camera, but that’s modern cars. Also, I finally ordered my shirt. It says it’s “in production.”
Engineers are always making mechanics’ jobs harder than they have to be. Thanks for the support!
@@vehcor No problem bro!
Wow it was nice to see Mr Spotty show up! So you can use the belt moulding installation tool on the lift gate trim panel? Thx!!
Don’t ask me, I misuse tools all the time according to the “experts”. 😂
Love the "can-within-a-can" workbench Scott! Very boy scout-esque! Always good to see a new Vehcor video! 👍👍
Agreed, the reinforced sides....it is structural design genius.
Thank you @vehcor!
No problem!
Gotta love the pile right below your workbench!
Right on time!!! I literally ordered a new backup camera for my new used 2013 lincoln MKT ecoboost with the exact same issue lol
Ford struggled to make a good camera for any of their vehicles in that era. 😂
Happy Tuesday, Scott!🍻
Same to you!
So glad to see this
Thanks!
Don't know if you noticed Scott but your workbench has a far king big hole in it that may even be bigger than the bench. 😱
*Thank you* for the video. Much appreciated! 👍
That is where we keep the Ford pile! 😂
You've got a fan in me, keep 'em coming!
In 2007, I remember taking a Test Drive in a Mercury MKX, when Mercury mailed me a $25 Incentive.
Thank you thank you thank you!!! Year n half ago camera worked on n off. Last 6 months NO Camera. 2013 Lincoln MKT
You make it look so easy! Thanks, Scott!
Nice job you’re very patient with those clips and studs not breaking them. Thanks John from Arizona
Nice job. Quick and easy.
On to the next repair.
Our Ford Explorer has been doing this for a few years. Think ours might have a corroded connector. Seems that Explorers like to leak in the tailgate. Just haven’t gotten around to checking it 😬
Cameras are a common failure. Salt water gets in them and eats them.
Looks like Mr. Smiley has a full body cast on. LoL Glad he's back. Great video. Many thanks.
Ahhhhh you got lucky on that fix. After all it is a FORD. Kinda shocoed it has that many miles.
Awesome video Scott. 🚗🚗🚗

No mirror is ever gonna let you see if a little kid standing in the middle of the tailgate
Luckily, I am poor so I still have cars without cameras so I don’t become camera dependent! 😂

@@lieutenantdan8170your right.. but better parenting will.
I think the end of the studs are actually a reverse Torx. You can get sockets for them
They are not
Great video enjoy watching keep up the great work
Thanks 👍
Excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Good update keep it up the good work 👍👍
Thanks, will do!

Thanks for any advice you can give me.
Spotty’s vanity plate is nice, he must drive a Ford just to piss you off.
How goes the new shop? Enjoy the videos.
Hey Scott you ought to get into the Altima race Cleetus is running at the Freedom Factory in October…
Anyone else screenshot the backup camera and look around Scott's garage
Good to see ya working.
What is your status on getting your own shop ?

Good video as always but I need to know are those a pair of metric Vice grips and are they on your Amazon store?
A very good video..Thanks..
Good job bud..Very finicky work..wow
Its been awhile since I took my drivers license test, are you still required to use your mirrors and physically look behind you when reversing, or can you just use a camera and call it a day PASS?
Hello,How are the repairs coming along on the shop after the fire?? Hope your back into the shop soon.
I will never be back, don’t know, don’t care what is happening there.
Any prospects for a new shop? Would really like to see more of the pre-fire type videos.
No
Yeeesss Sirrrr, The Finnish panel drincking game, I'm at 12. Børk Børk Børk!
How many times does a Ford half to say, I’m a Ford, when you start it up?? (LOL)
It is so happy it started it wants to tell you all about it.
I wonder if anyone's ever programmed their Ford to NOT do the "I'm A Ford. I'm a Ford. I'm a Ford" chime.
I can not stand that fing chatter. Every time I hear it I just want to fold the door in.
Do you sell that license plate at your merch....store
Trash cans make wonderful work benches just make sure the can is empty,hate looking through trash for a flying Jesus clip,thanks for the video much appreciated🤗😎🤗😎
Scott are there any updates on a new shop coming?
No
Scott: Will you have another shop ?
The answer is getting closer to “no” every day.
Hey how is the new shop coming along 😀
It’s not
I would think the white jacket guys at Ford would make the camera more accessible.
Nice 😎👍
This thing is shockingly similar to my 2002 Acura MDX. It seems like every "crossover" in the past couple of decades is trying to copy that car. lol
My grandpa always called them 'jelly beans"; because they all look the same, just in different colors.
Wow man, when are you getting back into a new shop? Anytime soon?
No
All this time I thought I was the only one that used garbage cans as a work bench. 🙃
As long as you don’t drop parts in and have to play hide and seek, it works great. 😂
I am a bit dim so would someone tell me why when the car moved forward the camera didn't turn off?
The camera in my Toyota always turns off as soon as I take gearbox out of reverse.
I found your problem in the first 10 seconds. FORD. 😮😂
I see you chose violence with the Ford fans today. 😂
Was that Mr spoty ‘sbrother
What happened to rear view mirrors😮😮
Technology replaced them. 😂
Could just take it to the dealer if you have an extra thou. to toss into the wind.
A dealer repair bill would probably total this thing. 😂
Often tricky tracking down this sort of fault.
Maybe on the first 10 or so I did. 😂 it is always the camera on these.
1:54 finnish panel? how do you know it's not Norwegian?
I was told of its heritage. I trusted my sources. Maybe we need a 23 and me? 😂
I tought we were going to get a scream when backing up on the drive way .. 😂😅
i know youve run into the lift gate wires break syndrome before as well
Yes, less than one percent of the time. It is a pretty safe bet it is a camera due to the inferior quality.
Even Mr. Spotty could have done that 😂
My friend told me that his Ford truck has low miles, I said they do not get miles put on the odometer on the back of a tow truck!
😂
At least you can get the camera direct from China. Ford tends to put them on backorder a lot. Especially if it’s a part they are discontinuing.
Right... All intentional. I mean part availability should be infinite. And when they decide that is not reasonable it is completely unreasonable for back order events to occur as production ends.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nice to see Mr. Spotty trying justify his paycheck again. Nice repair if you take your time & not break parts.
Always shows up on payday! 😂
11mm or 7/16"? Pretty much the same size, but it depends on the thread on the bolt as to whether it's metric or imperial. Metric bolts don't usually have 11mm heads, mostly 10mm or 12mm, but I did have some 12mm nuts with 18mm heads, that's a 3/8" Whitworth head size. Weird.
bad fetzer valve !! Oh, I have the same blue workbench !
The bench is great until you drop something and have to play hide and seek. 😂
The way this panel is made, it looks like they want you to replace the whole panel, not just the camera!
The engineers just over complicate it for no reason. 😂
Did not know a Ford last that many miles
They made a few good ones. 😂
I had a Newfoundland dog that almost made 15 years, too.
Just as heroic.
Daniel Craig drove one of those at the end of Quantum of Solace.
The budget must have run out! 😂
Time 319 Spring loaded pliers + front pocket = Bang Ding Ow
They are locked
nice job as always.... but you should cleaned the parts before you reinstalled them :) lol im kidding i had to just once
I did, the camera was clean! 😂

Didn't know an edge could go 209k
They must have made a couple good ones! 😂
👊👍
👍🏻
I was waiting for a crash after the sound of screeching tyres
Me too! I looked up, was disappointed. 😂
@@vehcor I bet they needed fresh undies. Stay safe Scott , and say Hi the the ‘supervisor’ from the UK, Shepard are great dogs
😎😎😎👍👍👍 nice
Thanks ✌
Need weekly videos.......or moving on.
When you gonna start rebuilding cars again?
Never stopped, I don’t make videos on the ones that are preordered, never have.
@vehcor I mean videos of rebuilding them. .I know after the place burnt up you were gonna let us know what all happened wit that and that rebuilds were on hold for now and you went to taking about the cars that people are butchering and trying to run back through auction
How ironic it is that youre fixing a Ford part over a trash can. Also, did I hear gunshots when you were putting it all back together? lol
A rice burner with one of those stupid “pop and bang tune”. I don’t honestly see the attraction to that nonsense.
@@vehcor pretty stupid to me too.
The chinese back up camera is most likely what ford uses , but ford charges a premium price
209 on a Ford, OMG.
They made a couple good ones in the bunch I guess. 😂
210k miles. Another 30k and that's 240k miles = distance to the moon.
You'll need to equip the car with oxygen and water.
aren t ford cameras made in china anyway ? just asking
Probably, everything is made in China these days! 😂
wow...fords are cumbersome to work on
..yuck
A backup camera?
