ArtCFartC Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 It looks like the front turn signal lamp mount has stopped connecting. I tried switching it with the one on the other side to see if my headlight assembly was at fault, but it looks like it's just this lamp mount. I just thought I'd check to see if anyone else had this go out and if there's a work around, like maybe straightening contacts or something. They look alright, but something isn't making connection.

G B L Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Have you tested the mount out side the car with power ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtCFartC Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 No, but after swapping one side for the other I'm pretty sure it's the socket or it's contacts. Finally found it on parts.ford.com after searching elsewhere for the part number. It was only a few dollars more than the off brands, so I went ahead and ordered it. Should come in today. We'll see.

ArtCFartC Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 If I had known it was less than $20, I wouldn't have even bothered making a post about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty150 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 You've got it isolated to just the mount? Did you try switching the bulbs also, while you were switching the mounts around? Take the bulb out, and look inside the mount. See if the contacts look burnt or corroded. I've seen that on other cars. Never figured out why. But replacing the lamp sockets and lamps will get you back in business. I suppose it doesn't matter. But I would've have ordered 2, just to have a spare. Now's your chance to install LED signal lamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
