Default Edge Evolution Question

Hi, I have a 04 F150 supercrew, 5.4, 3v 4x4. I just picked up a used edge evolution and am having some issues trying to update it via computer. I am running win7 on my computer. I have the lightning software installed, but I cannot find the drivers for it. Any ideas please where I can find those? When I let windows find the drivers it never recognizes the device via lightning... please advise


thanks

I was never sure what the lightning software was but my programmer is updated off of a software from Edge called Fusion. Mine is an 06 5.4 3v 4x4. Look for the fusion software on there website and try it.

There is a link to download the fusion software, hope that helps!

Default Fusion.

In the user manual it references the Fusion software. You can download it on their website under Updates on the left.

Default fusion unsuccesful

My edge evo II model EEF2400 is not supported by fusion. Unfortunately, like I mentioned earlier, when I try to use Lightning, as Edge recommends for my model, the programmer never shows up as connected in the program itself, but shows up on the bottom tray portion of the windows home screen.

OK. I actually just installed Lighting earlier today. When I went through the process of installing it asked me if I wanted to install the drivers. Ill go look around a little bit see if I can find anything else out for ya.

Did you notice this in the Lightning description box? Also do you have the disc they talk about? You could probably call them tomorrow and get that sent to you.

EEF2400 – Ford F-150 2004-2007
*This software only works on
EEF2400 versions E3.XX.XX
This is found on the silver
serial sticker on bottom of
product.

The only thing i can think is that its bc im on windows 7, but i was under the impression it has full backwards compatibility... ugh, its so painful to have one of these and not be able to use it

thanks again!
