woolz Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 one of my driving lights stopped working the other day. i called a local dealer and they said that it should be covered under the 3/36 warranty. they won't order me one until i take my car in for them to look at. my car didn't come with an owner's manual, so i don't know which fuse to check. i would assume that one fuse would power both lights. however, here's my question. is each light powered by it's own fuse? has anybody else had a problem with their driving lights? i crawled underneath the car and checked out the assembly. lens isn't cracked, wiring appears to be intact. thanks in advance. zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So consult your Mustang owners manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolz Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I hate to be too technical, but have you checked the bulb?

woolz Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 it is one fuse and the same fuse as the standard GT driving lights. So consult your Mustang owners manual. i assumed that it was only one fuse that powered both lamps. i don't have the owner's manual. i guess it's part of buying a car that was once a rental. however, i do enjoy seeing people's reaction to it. happy cruising!!

Are you referring to the PIAA's in the lower front valence? The bulbs and the lenses are replaceable. I'm guessing its an H3 55w bulb. Can someone verify this?

JeffIsHereToo Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 it is one fuse and the same fuse as the standard GT driving lights. So consult your Mustang owners manual. Go to Ford's customer service page and you can download a PDF of the owner's manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one_quik_pony Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Did you check that bulb yet? First rule of electronics..,K.I.S.S. Keep it simple, Silly (or stupid, depending on your mood)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolz Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Did you check that bulb yet? First rule of electronics..,K.I.S.S. Keep it simple, Silly (or stupid, depending on your mood)! i sure did. today, i finally had a chance to look underneath it good today. two screws hold in the lens assembly. i screwed them all the way out. it would've been easier if i had just loosened them enough to get the lens out. there are two threaded clips that were a pain to get back in. unplugged the wires, pulled out the bulb. you were spot on on the specs of the bulb by the way. thanks zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
