  Housing, Bracket Radiator Grille

• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford active grille shutter assembly, cataloged by Ford as the Radiator Shutter Assembly, a motorized housing with movable vanes that mounts behind the front grille opening. The powertrain control module opens and closes the shutters to manage airflow into the radiator, closing them at speed or when cooling demand is low to improve aerodynamics and fuel economy and to speed engine warm-up, and opening them when the engine or air conditioning needs more cooling airflow. It fits 2015 through 2018 Ford Edge models across the 2.0L, 2.7L, and 3.5L engine applications. Common failure signs include a stored active grille shutter trouble code, an illuminated warning, the shutters stuck open or closed, a grinding or clicking noise from a stripped actuator gear, overheating in traffic, or reduced fuel economy from shutters that will not close. Cracked vanes or a broken housing from road debris also require replacement. The Ford catalog notes the housing is supplied with the shutter as a complete assembly. During installation, disconnect the battery, transfer or connect the actuator wiring, and route the connector to the factory clips so the shutters cycle freely. After installation, clear any stored codes and verify the shutters open and close through their full travel without binding.

• Notes: Included with shutter.
