2013–2020 Ford Fusion headlight bulbs: common questions
What headlight bulb does a 2013–2020 Ford Fusion use?
- H11 (halogen, most trims); LED headlamps optional/standard on Titanium from the 2017 facelift for the low beam and 9005 (HB3) 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 2013–2020 Ford Fusion take?
- H10 or H16 (where equipped).
Can you put LED bulbs in a 2013–2020 Ford Fusion?
- 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.
