Ford YU5Z-13466-AD
Signal Lamp Bulb, Front

When servicing the fog lamp bulb users must handle it carefully around the base only since the halogen bulb holds pressure within its structure and will shatter upon glass damage or accidental drops. Installation of the new fog lamp bulb should begin at the very moment before insertion to stop performance problems from dirt and other contaminants entering the system through the fog lamp. First disconnect the electrical connector of the fog lamp bulb before rotating the socket in a counterclockwise direction for removal. The Lightning model requires the removal of fog lamp assembly before performing the fog lamp bezel clip removal and rubber weather seal and finally fog lamp bulb extraction. Following the removal steps will suffice to install the new bulb.

The warning indicator bulb servicing process requires removal of the instrument cluster followed by extraction of necessary instrument cluster bulbs with possible back cover removal. The service of warning indicator bulbs requires reversing the uninstallation process.

Service of the headlamp bulb begins with taking out the assembly. Use a counterclockwise rotation of the headlamp bulb cover to separate it then detach the electrical cable from the bulb. Begin by turning the retaining ring to the counterclockwise direction and then extract the headlamp bulb by pulling it directly out with rocking movements. The halogen bulb requires handling by its base only because its internal pressure makes it sensitive to breaking. Replace the bulb only shortly before installation to stop contaminants from entering the headlamp equipment which could degrade operational capability. Install the new bulb following removal procedures until the alignment pins of the headlamp assembly match their correct holes. When reconnecting the battery you should know that the vehicle will show unexpected driving behavior before it relearns its adaptive system so you must drive at least 16 km (10 mi). You must confirm that the new bulbs are certified Ford specifications because non-approved bulbs might trigger problems with the lighting control module (LCM).

The proper service of a headlamp bulb starts with turning off the headlamp switch along with the ignition switch. You must start by disassembling the headlamp assembly before carefully extracting the headlamp bulb through its base. The glass envelope on halogen bulbs contains pressurized gas therefore users must handle the bulb solely through its base to avoid fatal glass shards from forming. You should not let the bulb sit outside the headlamp area for too long since contaminants that enter the area might harm the bulb. End the installation procedure by repeating the exact steps used for removal of the headlamp bulb. You should never enable the headlamp operation when there is no bulb installed.

The bulb contains gas under pressure and may shatter if the glass envelope is scratched or dropped.
