It swaps in for the factory high-mount lamp to restore a clear lens, chrome housing and full LED array—offering more consistent visibility than aging incandescent modules. The unit includes a foam gasket and a single electrical connector designed to match trucks equipped with cargo lighting; non-cargo trucks can be adapted with a simple wiring step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this third brake light fit my truck?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility covers many common Ford models, but fitment depends on whether your truck has the factory cargo light wiring. It fits F250\/F350\/F450\/F550 (1999–2016), Explorer Sport Trac (2001–2005), Ranger (1993–2001), and B-Series models (various 1994–2009 years).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCheck part numbers YC3Z13A613BA or CC3Z13A613B against your original.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOnly fits models with cargo light wiring out of the factory without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-cargo trucks can be made compatible by routing a wire from the dome light to the connector.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does installation work and what hardware is included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward: remove the old lamp, clean the gasket surface, attach the new light and reseal. The Partsam unit ships with a foam gasket and one plug; factory screws are not replaced, so you should reuse the original fasteners for a secure fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSave and reuse the two factory screws—new ones are not supplied.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClean the roof gasket area with alcohol before mounting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse rubber washers and a light bead of silicone or clear RTV to enhance the seal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand tools are recommended to avoid over-tightening the screws.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat lighting functions does this assembly provide?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lamp has multiple functions: the red LEDs act as the brake\/stop light, while the white LEDs operate as cargo\/interior illumination when the dome lights are turned on.

This Partsam LED third brake light is aimed at Ford truck owners who need to replace a faded, cracked or burnt-out high-mount lamp and want a brighter, maintenance-free LED option. It’s ideal for drivers of the compatible F-Series, certain Explorer Sport Trac, Ranger, and B-Series models who prefer an easy swap that modernizes the vehicle’s rear lighting and restores cargo-area illumination. If your truck originally included cargo lights, this is a near direct replacement; if not, it still works with a small wiring modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this replace the factory 3rd brake light directly?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes for models equipped with cargo wiring; otherwise minor wiring from the dome light is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Are screws included with the light?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No, reuse your original two mounting screws; rubber washers and sealant are recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Partsam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48086323986590,"sku":"B0932QZH16","price":46.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/partsam-front-view-assembly_b58dfcf0-df06-4981-9287-0f8c56930a40.jpg?v=1785895095","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/partsam-led-high-mount-third-brake-light-for-ford-f-series-1999-2016-clear-lens-chrome-housing","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
