I'm not that familiar with the Edge but yes my guess is they were in error. Or, there's a mis-communication. The Edge will read EGT but only if you add a temperature probe to the header or...

That's odd. It's a PCM sensor so the Edge should read EOT. But not EGTS. You need a separate probe for that.
