Help with a 1999
Have you tried running it with the hose from the boost elbow to the waste gate actuator disconnected? With the waste gate not allowed to open you would see your max boost pressure. If the Edge wasn't boost fooling the check engine light would come on along with defueling.

Help 47re won't shift out of 1st
It would be a good time to adjust the front and rear bands too. The rear band adjustment is only accessible with the pan off. Remember, tighten the bands to 72 inch-pounds NOT foot-pounds, don't over tighten the pan bolts (13 foot-pounds) and let the trans drip for a while before sticking your head under there.

Engine shut off without restart?
You might have lost electrical power to a key component. Check connections at the PDC, ECM and injection pump. Also check fuse and relays that power up those systems.

Multi meters for AC testing
As long as it reads accurately and has the functions that you need, no need for a high price unit. I have 4 different multi meters, two of them were free and didn't spend over $30 for either of the other two. They all have their pros n' cons. One of the free ones I've used almost daily since 1989.

thoughts and maybe some prayers
I'd rather hear "you need a root cannel"than "we need to talk". I hope it's not serious.

BHAF
The expansion valve is by the right battery. The 134A passes through the valve and is now a cold low pressure liquid in that pipe. The foam and aluminum tape are just factory insulation to help keep that liquid 134A cold until it reaches the evaporator and in no way should be use for protection from a vibrating part. Dripley, I like that cradle idea. Did you just rest the filter on the cradle or strap it down to limit the filter's movement?

It's so when it doesn't seal tight anymore the check engine light will come on with a p0455 large leak in fuel evaporative system and you can't just go to your local parts house and get a new gas cap to fix it. It means money for Honda.

Dash or dash cover
I've been looking at the replacement dash for my truck. Right now I've got a carpet dash cover that came with the truck when I bought it so you can't tell the dash is braking. I've been going to the 'pick your part' salvage yards thinking may be I'll get lucky and find on there. If I have to buy one I'd probably get it from LMC because it's all ready painted.

Help-Cummins Down............
I agree. Just because they are the dealer doesn't make them knowledgeable about older models. The mechanics that were working on them 14-18 years ago are probably gone and the guys that are there now may know 3ed generation and newer only. There are 2 dealers in San Diego county that call me to help them fix the older Volvos because the mechanics there have no experience with them.

Removing Crankcase Vent for Valve Adjustment?
Sometimes a big pair of water pump pliers works.

Brakes
When mounting the brake brackets, calipers and hardware the proper mounting bolt torque can be critical. It is best if a torque wrench is used for this.

The manufacture's extended warranty is all ways better than the independent warranty companies and this extended warranty policy looks like it as good as it gets.

SUV talk...go
What gets me about those extended warranties is you pay for a 5 or 6 year extended warranty but the first 1to 3 years there is the factory warranty. It's like having two warranty policies at the same time. It would make more sense if the extra warranty policy didn't start until the factory on expired. Make sure the warranty covers the electronics, leaking seals and gaskets . I worked at dealers for over 20 years. A car would come in with a rear main crankshaft seal leaking. The owner thought that the extended warranty would cove it. When we'd submit a claim to the warranty company it would be denied. The extended warranty would only cover hard parts like cam shaft, pistons, ect.

loss of overdrive when ac is turned on
This is my mystery switch setup: 1, a momentary switch in the shifter handle, the torque convertor lock will disengaged when brake peddle is applied 2, a lock up switch on the floor(toggle switch) with no disengagement of torque convertor when brake peddle is applied 3, an annunciator light in the A post next to the trans temp gauge that illuminates when system is on.

Headlight options
It would be an easy direct replacement. The Flosser 9104 is the blub to use in place of the 9004. Are you going with the 111067 or the 111068?

Console overhead broke, any ideas?
The part is described as "door, garage door opener, part #OSN98TL2AA. That's for a remote garage door opener. It's made so a remote can be placed into it, then with the cover closed the center of the cover can be pushed and the remote activated.
