headlights

Hey guys, I have a 2014 Explorer sport and my headlights absolutely SUCK so I'm looking for something that would be brighter, OEM or aftermarket. Does anyone have experience with a certain aftermarket brand or even OEM that they've used and had success with? I feel like I'm driving in the...

Well that was effing a pain in the @ss. So my headlights....and yours....won't go off. Crikie! Been all over the place with this trying to find a true answer for 3hrs today and 2 more at 1am last night. No matter what you do they won't go off, and you finally pulled the battery...

Bought It about 3 months ago, the headlights were brand new. About a month ago I hit 218k and almost instantaneously as it rolled over, my dash lights went off and would only come back on if I turned on my headlight switch. NOW THIS IS WHERE I START TO HATE MYSELF It was daytime so I didn’t...

My daughters headlight got hit, rain leaked in and has now stopped working. I'm assuming I need to replace whole headlight assembly since it's cracked. The attached pic is what is in it. This type of light seems very expensive to replace. Can I convert to a different light or am I forced to pay...

I have a 2011 explorer limited with factory hids. I’m looking for aftermarket headlight housings but have had no luck due to having the factory hids. Does anyone know a company or website that sells the aftermarket headlights with black housing and clear marker lights? I’m looking for something...

I have a 2011 Explorer that i am looking to upgrade the headlight assembly’s. I see the style I’d like is made for the Edges but i am having a hard time finding that style (similar to the 2016+ DRL bar style headlights). I’d appreciate any help finding options for this

Working my way towards making her all blacked out, first the headlights and taillights, now the grille and brush guard. Working towards full offroader!

I have a 1998 Ford Explore 5.0 AWD and both headlights quit working. If I hold the hi-beams on the hi-beams will work. I have changed the multifunction switch and still have the same issue. I was wondering if anyone has had this problem and what they did to fix it.

Good day, fine folks! High beams not working in 2002 Ford Explorer XLT. All the other functions of the multi-function switch are working. Checked fuses, and relays identified in manual. The #49 relay is clicking when high beam switch on MFS is activated. No power to the #46 20a fuse at any...

I have headlight problems in my 97 Ford explorer. When I checked the headlights, the side (orange) ones work fine when I test them but the main ones that are troubling me. I have a driver-side high beam that works, but not the passenger side. I have watched a video that helps but doesn't solve...

Howdy, Has anybody replaced their Explorer/PIU's headlight bulbs (9005) with LEDs? How did that go? Better or worse than with halogens? Do they flicker, did you need an anti-flicker capacitor? Are they positioned correctly, not too high or too low? If you've done it successfully, which LED...

Hi everyone, I’ve been interested in trying to get my front head lights like the interceptor utility (or really any interceptor lights). Does anyone know if this is possible, is this a lighting module or the light itself? If it’s none of these can it be done with FORScan? If anyone here let’s me...

Hi All, So I have a 2004 Explorer XLS 4.0L. My wife drove home last week from work later then usual (dusk), and as she pulled up to the house I noticed that only the parking lights were on (had driven it two nights earlier with no issues). I started investigating the issue. The parking and high...

Hi everyone, this is my first post! Anyway, I bought a LED "Ford" emblem for the front grill of my 2017 Explorer Sport. The Ford wording lights up when power is supplied. I'm trying to wire the new emblem to my headlights so it will turn on when the headlights turn on. But I am having trouble...

So i have a 2004 Ford Explorer 2WD, and my headlight/brake lights will occasionally flash while the car is off. It happens at random. i will go outside and see the lights flashing at the same rate a turn signal would flash. i usually unlock and lock the car again which makes the flashing stop...

After purchasing our 2013, I did not notice replacing the headlight bulbs for first couple of years. Over the past three years, the dealer replaced them twice, and I replaced them last summer with non-Ford light bulbs. With another one out now, I’m getting frustrated. This is not our only...

This has been going on for quite a while and I hope someone may have some insite. When it gets dark out and the auto headlights activate, the headlights come on and work properly but the parking lights and the interior dash/stereo lights turn off and on constantly. When the headlight switch...

This thread was way to long to go through, but I didn't see a resolution. Explorer's Poor Headlights 2011-2014 Explorer Problem: It's like there are black discs covering the beams with the only light being in the ditch to the right just in front of the car, extending way up into the trees on...

Hello all. I find this forum most helpful but I cant find this problem. 1994 ford explorer. leaving for work this morning and I turn on the headlights and all I have are the park lamps, tail lamps, and brake lights all work. No headlights. I try the high beams, they dont work, but the high...

Can anyone tell me where are the vertical and horizontal adjustors on the LED lamps on a 2016 or 2017 Sport or Platinum?

I just took delivery of my new 2017 Explorer Sport. I love the look of the headlights, very aggressive looking and the LED strip illumination is stunning. I live in a rural area and the low beam LED headlights output a lot of very white light, work great and do a great job on their own. Add...

My low beams work fine. My high beams also come on. When I put my high beams on the right beam raises but the left beam lowers. If you adjust the beam hieght for the highs to match then the left low is way to high. First I thought the bulb had a filament issues and changed the bulbs. That did...

So, yesterday when I ran off to college, my car refused to start at first. I would turn the key, it would crank, but it wouldn't actually fire up. I tried a few times, then tried while holding down the gas pedal, and it started, but I don't know if it was because I was holding the pedal or...

I have a 2007 Sport Trac and I want to convert to auto headlights. I replaced the headlight switch but still no auto headlights, but they do come on after I turn the windshield wipers on. Has anyone done this conversion or have any input? I do have a sun load sensor on the dash that blinks a red...

No clue what is causing this issue, Only the brights burn, no low beams. On occasion the low beams will stay on for a moment if you turn the brights off. Burning brights all the time isn't ideal. Currently my high beams are not that bright (could be the bulb or whatever is causing the low beams...

My headlight low beams are not working. I replaced the switch, and they worked for a bit then stopped working again. So I replaced the wiring harness and made sure that was right and it still doesn't work. Toggling the brights or just flashing them doesn't work either. The only lights that work...

Hi all, I've been searching for sometime now and can't seem to find any professional looking aftermarket headlight/turn signal lamps for my 03' Explorer. I found one for the expedition but it is one single unit, whereas the explorer is two separate units for the turning lamp and the headlamp...

On a 16/17 Explorer, is it possible to change the LED color of the headlight outline (is there an official name for that light?) to yellow like on some of the 2016 F150s?

Help! I really need some feedback &/or similar experiences for when I speak to Ford today. Sorry it's a Lil long, but it's REALLY f'd up. Anyway, we bought brand new Explorer last year. By 3200 mi, we realized a front headlight out "sometimes", so took it in & they said they can't reproduce it...

I have a 2013 XSport and I've always swapped the amber parking light bulbs with switchbacks (they illuminate white until turn signal deployed they flash amber) in other vehicles. I do notice the parking light area of the housing has 2 separate bulbs- one dedicated solely to parking lights and...

So I've tried looking for some awesome headlights, I always come across the halo projectors and RGB color changing pods and what not but never any options for color changing headlights, I see em on badass 2nd Gen Cummins and I want to do it to my Explorer, anyone have any good links to places I...

I bought my Explorer in December. From the day I took her home the left headlight doesn't always work. After FOUR trips to the dealership they told me they were after market HID lights and they wouldn't fix them. Angry phone calls to the owner and I have a service manager working with me...

So last night got a call from a friend's wife because she was stranded with no headlights. I managed to get it home on the high beams without making to many enemies. Upon investigation I've found both bulbs are good, underhood fuses & micros for headlights & drl are fine, high beams work as do...

Hey guys, So this video will show you how to aim your headlights and your fog lights on our trucks. This is a big problem I see all the time where people dont know how to aim their headlights and either their light beam is not lighting up the road adequately or they are blinding other...
