I have been chasing this problem down for a week and saw this repair vid. THANKS SO MUCH KEN as saved me from much aggravation! Great tech!! Can only guess why Ford would put a friggin connector right below where passengers go in and out plus where moisture collects is beyond me.
Thank you for posting this, I had the same problem got pulled over twice for it and I got it fixed thanks on my own thanks to your video. For the people reading these comments if you don’t have a solder if you can get wire connectors that crimp together that do the same thing
I Have a 2006 Ford Expedition. I’ve spent $500 in 3 days trying to fix my Running lights and license plate light. I have no running lights front or back , no dash lights no dome lights. I’ve had now 3 consecutive tickets, fix it tickets. $2679 in tickets. My next ticket is a $5 ,000 fine and 6 months in jail. Over this fucking light problem. This vehicle , the only one I own is worth less than the fines I have paid. I have to drive to get to work. I can’t afford another car , partly due to this issue. I try so hard , I’ve done everything I can think or some professional mechanic has thought of. Definitely trying this and cut the wire tape off. I’m at Witt’s end. I’ll never buy a ford again after this . Thank you 🙏 for posting this . I’ll try any fucking thing if it can possibly save someone’s life for hitting me because I have no lights.
@@joseespinosa4550 passenger side door underneath the fuse box remove plastic panel, a bunch of wires are wrapped in plastic with electrical tape, cut them open look for a purple/ white wire with a conector, mine was rusted and cut in half, i didn't had a problem finding it, good luck 👍
Valentin Herrera just found it thank you my cut off too I been looking for information for almost a month and I didn’t found anything till yesterday . Thank you again I safe a lot of money .
@@joseespinosa4550 my problem ended up being all the running lights weren't working and it was a melted tail light socket! On your truck was it just the rear not working? If so, (like in this video) this is most likely your problem

By chance did you lost your interior lights and board and steering well?
No, just taillights and licenses plate light
mine was a 2006 model
My 2004 F150 has no license or tail lights
This should be the problem
