Compatible With 1996-2005 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury models including Ford F-150, Ford Explorer, Lincoln Navigator, and Mercury Mystique, this socket is used where the original parking light connector has heat damage, corrosion, or broken terminals.

Detailed Description

This Motormite socket assembly is engineered for vehicles that use a 3-wire parking light bulb socket, including Ford Crown Victoria, Ford Explorer, Ford F-150, Ford Ranger, Lincoln Aviator, Lincoln Navigator, and related applications. The female terminal design and replacement lamp socket format make it a practical choice when the original connector no longer holds a secure electrical connection. Part number 84768 is listed for multiple front and rear lighting positions, including Ford F-150 rear applications under 8,500 lb. GVW and Ford Windstar front applications built to 12/02/02.

Common Repair Uses

  • Restoring a parking light that no longer illuminates due to socket failure
  • Repairing melted, brittle, or corroded bulb socket terminals
  • Fixing intermittent lighting caused by poor terminal contact
  • Replacing a damaged 3-terminal lamp socket on Ford front or rear lighting circuits
  • Addressing broken connector housings on older Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Compare the original socket before installation, especially on Ford F-150, Ford Windstar, and other fitments with notes about wire count, GVW, or build date. Confirm the terminal gender and 3-terminal layout match the factory connector before splicing. Follow the vehicle wiring diagram and verify lamp function after installation.

Quality Assurance

Motormite 84768 is a replacement electrical socket assembly built to match the listed applications and connector style. The manufacturer notes extra-long leads and multiple butt connectors as part of the socket assembly design.
