NEW* Super Bright CREE LED Reverse Bulbs

C2tuck · Dec 26, 2017

Nope. Fit the socket just fine...just don’t light up. Tried turning them around. The same bulbs worked fine in the cargo light, just not the reverse.

In that case it would have to be the contacts on the bulb are not touching the contacts on the socket. Could you try splaying the contacts on the bulb out a little bit towards the outside to see if that helps them make proper contact?

Had to flip the contacts to the opposite sides. Guess I shouldn’t try to do that in the dark when it’s freezing outside.

That driver side cargo light was a b!tch! Thanks ford...

do these fit in the cargo light location as well or is that a different bulb.
I probably should have tried that before I installed them but laziness

Yes they fit cargo. Ford just made it a pita to get one in by not giving you any slack in wiring...

Ordered the 3157’s for my tails as well. Do y’all sell them in singles for the third brake light?

Unfortunately they do not come in singles bud.

Just threw them in. Let’s just say I feel bad for anyone behind me when I hit the brakes...

So I’m getting a fast blink on one side yet all the bulbs work fine. Any ideas?

On just one side of the turn signals? You are using the LED load resistors, correct?

C2tuck · Jan 12, 2018

Yes just the right side. And I just ordered the bulbs and plug and played them. Worked perfect for a couple days then started fast blinking.

LED bulbs will cause hyper-flashing in the turn signals jut like if the standard bulb was out because of the drop in the electrical load on the circuit.
LED load resistors are typically needed to keep the hyper-flashing from occurring.
