Map lights in 2000 Ford Explorer?
I have a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT that I'm having a small issue with. There's a flat metal, maybe copper, piece that fits in between the light bulbs and light housing. The metal piece broke in half on both sides and now my map lights are not working. Where could I find a small piece of metal to fit it? I'm guessing it helps with the connection since it was working fine before it broke.
I know the description isn't that great but it is just a small, flat thin piece of metal (copper).
That piece of copper (the bulb end clip) is riveted in the light bulb housing, you will have to replace it now. Next time, pry the bulb out from the end of the bulb.
- Why are my blink lights / brake lights working? I have a 72 Ford f100 and the rear left turn signal, brake ligh, hazard light isn't working. The light workings for "running lights " but does not blink or light up when I press the brake. I replaced the bulb. I don't know where to start
- What's the difference between the map light and dome light? I have a 2003 Ford Taurus SES sedan. I want to put LED interior lights. I was looking it up and I has dome and map lights? So I looked up the difference and the only thing that kept showing was the overhead dome housing?
- 99 Ford ranger XLT base model. Park lights, dash lights, and license plates lights out I checked online and realized it was probably a fuse which it is. Fuse 11 in my power distribution box. The problem is I keep replacing at and soon as I turn on my lights it blows instantly. Have replaced it multiple times. So then I looked under my truck and disconnected the wiring to my taillights and replaced the fuse, it worked it didn't blow. Dash lights and license plates lights were on so I figured some where there's a problem with the brake lights. Any suggestions?
- Headlights, instrument cluster lights, tail lights, and dome light all stopped working at once? 1995 Mustang GT convertible, fuses are good, switch is good. I'm about to do a voltage drop test on it tomorrow but I wanted to see if you Ford guys knew something that I'm overlooking.
