Fallout – How to let go of ED-E

fallout-new-vegas

As per title I lost the ED-E somewhere… Not sure where. I stopped paying attention to him because he seems to always get stuck at the entrance of various caves/vaults (would follow me just fine outside).
I never gotten message of his death. He does not show on the map. I still have the Enchanted Senses perk on my list. Boomers still offer to take care of my robot problem. The followers/BOS upgrades were done long ago.
Checked Lucky 38 and Primm – he is not there.

I actually kinda like this because I play sneak/sniping character and the silly eye-bot is a bloody aggro machine. The only reason I recruit him in the first place is his perk and extra carrying weight.

However this presents a problem: I can't recruit Rex because I can't let go ED-E.

Anything else I can try other than console commands?

If you are on the PC version, open the console (which is essentially the same as Fallout 3's console) and set ED-E as your target in the console - using the prid command - and moveto him to you. I lost some of my companions at one point and doing this got them all back.

Console commands:

prid 001732d1
moveto player

The refid will be different if you have upgraded ED-E. You can see all his refids here.

Type the commands into the console, save the game, then exit and restart Fallout New Vegas - Steam achievements will be enabled again and ED-E will be with you.
