Towing Ford Edge

Recommended Posts

We tow a Ford Edge with Roadmaster and Brake Buddy. There is nothing in the manual that states pulling a fuse, but set key to accessory. We stop every 3 hours and start car. If we do not it is totally dead and then needs to be jumped from motorhome or a small power battery unit. Never had this problem with the old Saturn. Called Ford dealer and they see no problem with our automatic AWD Ford. Has anyone had this problem. travelindottie@gmail.com or 406-249-5184. We have a 2001 Discovery.

We tow a 2008 Edge and have not had any problems with a dead battery after I read a thread somewhere that said to go past accessory position until the key stops turning. I have towed for over 10,000 miles like this (many times multiple day traveling).

My Roadmaster Even Brake allows me to monitor toad battery voltage and I have been guilty of forgetting to turn switch completely to the stop and have had to stop and do just that as the voltage does go down quickly with it just in the accessory position.
