Trying to wire up LED tail/turn/stop lights...

[FexplorerV8]

Ok, been looking over Ranger, Explorer, and Focus Electrical diagrams.
And I found the solution. Wire into the trailer harness wires.
There are four wires; Ground, Parking, Left Turn/Brake, Right Turn/Brake

I don't have your year Ranger CD so I can't tell you what color wires those would be though. And you will likely have to get some resistors to put in place of the stock light bulbs so the flasher still flashes at the correct interval like Rick did in his thread

Also it looks like the 2000 Ranger actually has the wiring you're looking for. Combined Turn/Brake light per side. Did they change the tail light design?

You're lucky I have nothing better to do than sit at a computer on a Friday night.

I was about to tell him that =]

Yeah, I forgot to order the resistors to stop the fast flashing so i'll live with it for the time being.

I want to say they changed the ranger tails in 98 to red/white from red/amber/white but not sure on that.

FROADIDDY,
That pic you posted is exactly what i'm going to do when I get the time to finish except the light will be red insted of amber.

They didn't change to the red/white till 2000. Thats what I wanted for my '96 but seteled for '98 tail lights which are just aranged different.
