My neighbor has a new '16, their LED headlamp was out by the time they got it home, also had to have the assembly replaced.
Maybe that scan tool is the monitor the service advisor was referring to.
16 Sport just under 19K miles, driver side LED headlight (not the C shaped ribbon) is out, passenger side is ok. Has anybody else experienced this?
Welcome to the Forum.Hi, just joined this forum with exactly the same problem. my 2016 explorer's right led low beam is out with only 10k miles...
frankly i'm surprised as the manual says it isn't a serviceable item. I was trying to find a fuse for this lamp but its not on the scheme!
What was done at the end, have the entire lamp assembly been changed or there is a way to reset the system?
Ford is not the only manufacturer that has this. A 2016 Cadillac CT6 has 12 LED exterior bulbs and only the backup light (regular bulb) is serviceable by user. All 9 LED lights on the Lexus RX350 are not serviceable by user.hopefully something aftermarket will be available before most require replacement. Ridiculous having a headlight that's not serviceable.
Looks like the driver side headlamp assembly is part number FB5Z-13008-V and the control module is FB5Z-13C788-B.
Since you haven't added the 'Trim level' to your profile I did a look up for a Sport which NewYorkistanSux using his part number and it looks like a similar assembly is FB5Z-13008-H for the right side. http://parts.autonationfordwhitebea...dlamp-components-scat/?part_number=fb5z13008vHi Folks, can someone help to check what's the right headlight part number, i'm going to place an order for mine? Guess control module should be the same for left and right units.
At those prices, someone will find a way to service them ! It was odd though, that NewYorkistanSux's needed both the driver ("control module") and the lens/LED assembly replaced, unless their service department accidentally destroyed one or the other while fiddling with it. I suppose the control module could be potted so there's no way to service it and by service I mean discrete electronic component level repair, not something a dealership would do.hopefully something aftermarket will be available before most require replacement. Ridiculous having a headlight that's not serviceable.
