2015–2020 Ford F-150 headlight bulbs: common questions
What headlight bulb does a 2015–2020 Ford F-150 use?
- H11 halogen (XL/XLT base); LED on trims/packages with LED headlamps (sealed, no bulb) for the low beam and 9005 (HB3) halogen (base); LED where equipped for the high beam. Trims with factory LED or HID projectors use a sealed assembly instead and are not bulb-serviceable.
What fog light bulb does a 2015–2020 Ford F-150 take?
- H10/9145 (halogen; LED on some 2018+ trims).
Can you put LED bulbs in a 2015–2020 Ford F-150?
- Physically, yes, LED replacements exist in every common base. Whether they work well depends on the housing: a reflector housing designed around a halogen filament scatters LED output into oncoming traffic instead of down the road. Projector housings tolerate the swap far better. Some vehicles also flag the lower current draw as a bulb-out fault.
