How to turn off the rear wiper on the Edge?
2 Answers
The method to turn off the rear wiper on the Edge is: press the protruding part at the top of the wiper switch downward to turn it off. Taking the Edge 2021 model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4878mm, width 1925mm, height 1734mm, wheelbase 2850mm, fuel tank capacity 69l, and the body structure is a 5-door 5-seat SUV. The Edge 2021 model is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 180kW and a maximum torque of 390Nm, matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is multi-link independent suspension.
I've always driven SUVs like the Ford Edge, and the most convenient way to turn off the rear wiper is by operating the wiper control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel. There's a rotary knob on the stalk specifically for controlling the front and rear wipers; once you locate it, simply turn the knob clockwise or counterclockwise toward the position marked 'OFF' or the rear wiper symbol. I remember the first time I encountered the rear wiper still running after the rain stopped—I fumbled with the knob and it stopped immediately. Settings may vary slightly across different models, and newer Edge versions might offer touchscreen options, but older models mostly rely on manual stalks. Turn it off promptly, otherwise operating it in clear weather can wear out the wiper blades and glass, shortening their lifespan. I also recommend regularly cleaning the rear window washer nozzles to prevent clogging and ensure smooth operation next time. Clear visibility is crucial for driving safety, and maintaining this habit is both simple and reassuring.
