2013 Ford Edge Limited heat not working/climate control system reset!

[@grzeniua]

You're a life saver dude! Worked the first time on my 2013 Edge Ltd, but...after restarting the car, it still blows hot on driver side, I redid it and it worked again, but why it doesn't stay this way...???

[@doatsouth3224]

Looks like you’ll need to replace the actuator!

[@j.Fontaine]

Ditto on the Life Saver. All I was seeing was $$$$ if I went to the dealer to fix it. I'm sending you a virtual beer on me.

[@doatsouth3224]

@@j.Fontaine glad to hear it worked! Tell you what I’ll take a soda ha ha

You can only put a mandate on a cut so many times and then it has to have surgery.

[@anthonyvasquez3016]

Dude my passenger side air vents were blowing hot as hell admins I tried this now there blowing out cold again!!! Thanks my dude!!

[@doatsouth3224]

Glad it helped!!

[@shawnsealer]

Same thing with me. Thanks

[@josephechanes496]

just now i experienced this on my ford edge. my wife was complaining blowing hot air on her side(passenger). but when i tried to reset it works😁👍🏼

[@toniwilliams7642]

Worked for me as well! 🎉 Thank you!!!

[@MariaPerez-if2kc]

Would this work on a ford explorer

[@gustavocordero7262]

Repair shop told me I needed to replace the heater core after “diagnosing” the problem. That was a $3K repair you just saved me!!!! THANK YOU!

[@abyssiniahenry128]

Video still helping folks. Just corrected my 2014 Ford Edge Sport AWD. Other press and hold methods didn't work, this did. Fixed this while on a trip and didn't have my OBD II scanner and laptop with me. Saved me from having to unplug blend door/actuator wires under the dash and battery cables etc. Drivers side all temps, passenger side just hot in all modes. Thanks for posting.👍🏼

[@JasmineBonner]

THANK YOU!!! When my passenger side started blowing BLAZING HOT mid-summer 2-3 years ago, I found the instructions to reset the AC on the non-limited trim. Over the years, I managed to accidentally press the right sequence to get it to reset a few times but couldn't reliably duplicate the results. I just stumbled across this video while shopping for a replacement part. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@edwardogomez2919]

2014 edge. Worked great. Thank you thank you. Watched several videos and yours was the only one that clearly explains the reset and you saved me hundreds of dollars. 😊

[@Tedzepplin]

Dealership wanted me to pay $145 an hour for diagnosis with a 2 hour minimum. This video saved me a ton of money. Thank you so much!

[@doatsouth3224]

Absolutely!

[@tracywilks5689]

Thank you! On our way to a wedding-all dressed up and no A/C on driver’s side. Your vid allowed us to fix the issue mid-ride. Thanks for sharing the procedure!

[@hopesmith3894]

THANK YOU. You saved my 6 month old, 3 year old and 5 year old from dying in 100 degree weather. You’re awesome

[@rhiannonbennett8362]

You are wonderful. I'm ready to go on a 1300 mine trip and on Friday afternoon, when I'm leaving on Monday, the passenger side of my 2014 Edge starts blowing heat. I still have AC on the driver's side. I call both the Ford dealership and my local mechanic who told me it's the blend door actuator and it is an 8-hour job to replace it. That the entire dash has to come out, but no one can see me for 2 weeks and I'm leaving Monday morning. I've been searching for a workaround on KZbin and found several ways on KZbin to reset and none worked. When I found yours I was looking at how to block the passenger side so at least I wouldn't have the heater on full blast in August. Your reset worked immediately. I'm 68 years old and you saved my trip. Thank you Soooooo much!!

[@WyseKingOfTheForest]

Bro thank God I found your video I got into my car this afternoon I have the Ford edge limited 2012 same trim model this saved my life in this heat man it's 102 degrees out here in South Texas and my vents were only blowing feet and windshield you saved my car

[@fabiolagarcia6560]

My heater was blowing out cold air on the driver side. I decided to try this before taking it to the shop and it worked! Thank you for saving me money!

Went to a mechanic shop this week cuz the driver side wasn't blowing hot air, they tried to convince me to replace one specific "fan module" and the total including parts + labor was supposed to be something around $450! Just did exactly what u showed and boom, everything working fine! Man, thank you so much! 2014 Ford Edge Sport

[@doatsouth3224]

No problem, hope it stays that way!

[@femibabs352]

Most people talk about the steps but never do them.. thanks for the actual steps it worked like a charm !!!

[@skrause9816]

Thanks man! You are the only one that described the entire process and it worked the first time on our 2014 Edge. Others would say press the power button and defrost button for 8 seconds which did nothing at all. Thanks again for the detailed explanation.

[@doatsouth3224]

Glad it helped!!

[@gustavolara1841]

Just fixed my car. I originally took this to a mechanic to fix and refill my system and spend $150 after trying to refill the system myself. When I did the refill the charge indicated full so I knew I had to take it to get looked at. Tech flushed system and recharged it, still blew hot, once he erased all the red flag codes from the car the system worked. Paid $150. After a week my driver side went out. Took it back to him and he suggested I replace the blend door actuator. We have it a tap under the steering wheel and both blew cold. Then my passenger went out a day later. After watching. This they both now work. Thank you so much.

[@kathrynknapp5069]

I tried so many different methods to fix my ac blowing HOT air and this was the only one that worked, thank you so much!

[@oliviarhyne]

So thankful for this video! I’ve had to do this multiple times on my 2013 Ford Edge over the last 6 months. It’s so annoying! This video has saved me aggravation of going to mechanic. Thank you!!!!

[@ryan9020]

I can think of a few things more annoying then having to press three buttons. Like maybe bringing it into the shop multiple times in 6 months for this same issue? I'll take this fix over anything else.

[@oliviarhyne]

@@ryan9020 I’m at the point of resetting several times a week! Have you figured out what the underlying problem is? I’ve thought about disconnecting my heat to fix the issue.

[@johnfry9010]

Thank you soooo much , I had replaced the actuator a month ago because I had no AC on right vent just hot air and did not know it had to be reset , your are a lifesaver !

[@loribrown6489]

Last Christmas we were on the way to Disney and I was freezing - miserable. Found this video and tried it at our first stop and it was a miracle. Looks like I have to do it again today so very glad it was still here.

[@InuYashaFantasy]

You probably get this a lot but thank you so much for this video. I have tried other methods and videos similar to this that has not worked but your method has worked and it has worked twice. You're a lifesaver thank you.

[@gregt7189]

Wow Thank you, I was having issues with my AC, I searched and searched and yours was the only accurate description of how to do this on my vehicle. And It Worked ! All Fixed, Thank You

[@Twansen]

You are a freaking genius! Thanks for the tip. It worked in my Ford edge when all the other ways failed!

[@anichols52]

Thanks so much for this video. Procedure worked great. We had cold air conditioning air coming out of the drivers side vents and very hot air coming out of the passenger side vents. This happens all of a sudden from one day to the next. After following the instructions in this video the air-conditioning is coming out of both drivers side and passenger side. Excellent information!❤🎉😍

[@meshellmybell4226]

This is the best reset on youtube for this issue! I still have not had to replace my actuator but have to do it more often. So, until it doesn't work, I will not replace it. Seriously, these days, because of all the fuses and tech crap in my car, I have to do all sorts of hacks on my baby to save some $$$$

[@johnwatson9914]

My wife's sub was blowing hot on the passenger side. I tried it this morning and it worked. Simply fix thanks.

[@doatsouth3224]

Good deal!

[@lindazelms6741]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm retired and my husband has dementia, I was frantic. A couple of years ago it would have been no problem, he could fix anything. Took it to a shop and got a $200 estimate. Then my "I can do it attitude kicked in". I searched and found your video. Worked like a charm. We bought a 2013 Edge Limited with 38,000 miles on it. So I'm kind of waiting for things to start going wrong. It was owned by an elderly man. No kidding! I'm 70, but not old. Thank you again. Going to suscribe.

[@doatsouth3224]

Thank you!!

[@MyweathernetreportsBlogspot]

I tried every “reset” instructions from 3 or 4 KZbin videos. Your instructions worked the first time. I heard the vent mix actuators resetting just like in your video. Best part, I was able to use the same method on my 2014 Lincoln MKZ. Now I have saved a trip to the dealership and saved the charges.

[@doatsouth3224]

Awesome!

[@michaela3407]

I want to say THANK YOU so much for your knowledge and posting of this video!! i have a 2014 ford edge limited and gone thru many videos-nothing has worked until i came across yours! You saved me so much money by doing it myself rather taking to a mechanic!! I APPRECIATE YOU!!

[@vanceheard5543]

2014 Ford Edge Limited owner here. Same issue and thanks to you, this is fixed time for winter ❄️ much appreciated.

This is working for me all the time. 4 times in 2 months, thank you so much.

[@jimdwyer2820]

Thank you for explaining it better than others on here…it worked for my 14 Edge thank you!!!

[@seantobin5521]

THANK YOU MY DUDE! Out of nowhere my 2013 Lincoln MKX just blowing out super hot air only on drivers side (middle of summer). Went through all the trouble to replace blend door actuator on drivers side only for it still to be blowing hot at hell on driver's side. Was so pissed off after all that work for no results. Then came across this video! Wished I had tried this first may have fixed the problem without the replacement.... You ****ing rock brother!🍻🍺🍻 Can confirm this process also works on Lincoln MKX 2013 (Pretty much same as edge).

[@dizNeKat]

Seriously this just made my day. I have a 14 edge that decided to pull shenanigans In South Texas this month I finally got out to try this after looking at others that do not work or fully explain as you did thank you. And I edge is no longer on a time out. FWIW I am 64 years old and spent 20 years in the automotive service channels like yours really make me happy and hopeful in a world or Service writers can only read the computer.

[@dizNeKat]

Ugh sorry about the spelling and grammar. Siri and I just have issues at times. 😊

Thanks. This was a huge help as I could not get other reset protocols to work. This one did the trick. Thanks.

[@doatsouth3224]

Thanks!

[@anonymousanonymous8906]

Thank you so much!❤ I thought the AC needed recharged but nope the AC was working great, just not on the drivers side.😢 Followed your guide and as soon as I saw the lights doing their thing I knew I was saved. Either it's gonna work or I need parts replaced. Thank you ❤🎉😂

[@aliciabennett8665]

Thank you! Thank you! I’m no longer freezing in the morning while my daughter is looking so cozy on the way to school every day.

Awesome! I replaced the passenger blend motor over the summer and it worked fine for AC, but it's cold now and it kept blowing cold on the passenger side. Thanks for getting me out of the dog house.

Oh man, thank you so much for posting this video. I have had problems with mine off and on where I've had to take it in to get it looked at and it still happening. This works superbly. Thank you thank you thank you for posting this. The sad thing is why can't they do this at the dealership. Oh no, they just want your money

[@simonoliver6748]

You just saved me 1k. Mechanic swore to me it was the modulator that needed to be replaced AFTER they replaced the actuators. I asked them to try a reset, and they said it didn’t work. I told them to wait. I did the reset from your video and it worked. Thank you!!

This just saved me a half day’s headache. Heat on drivers side, AC out the rest. WORKED!

[@chelseaspears1745]

You're the best! 🎉Worked exactly as you said....perfectly Worked on my 2014 limited! Thanks so much!!❤

[@survivingonsarcasm9376]

This worked!! I tried a few other videos but yours was the most specific and what I needed for my limited that was blowing cold air on one side. I had a diagnostic apt I was nervous about bc they couldnt get me in for over 3 weeks, we'll be going into Dec by then and im a single mother who just wanted to make sure the car is warm for the kids but was not looking forward to the potential hundreds and hundreds this could have cost me!! THANK YOU!!

[@mygt8a4re]

Finally! Somone who showed the proper reset procedure! Great tutorial on how to do it, thank you 🍻

[@tbone1220]

Thanks bro! Done this on a 2014 limited edge and it worked! Had heat on the passenger side and cold on driver side.

Worked perfectly!! Thank you for the step by step guidance. Always appreciate these DIY repairs.

[@TrulyJeebs]

This totally worked for us!! We were getting ready to drive to SC from Texas in 92 degree weather and the ac stopped! Tried this and it fixed it! We are sooo thankful🙏🏼❤

HUGE thank you for this! Mine is still under warranty (2014 Sport) but it's not been working for a couple of weeks and they weren't going to be able to get me in at the dealership until the 20th. Fixed in less than 5 minutes! Fortunately it has zero mechanical issues (only has just under 43k miles and it'll be 7 years old soon) so was not looking forward to it needing to be out of commission for a couple of days.
