Standard Ignition S-86 Parking Light Bulb Socket

Parking Light Bulb Socket for OE-Style Repairs

Standard Ignition S-86 is a parking light bulb socket and pigtail assembly built for electrical repair work where the original connector has failed, overheated, or lost conductivity. It uses a 3-wire, 3-terminal male wire-lead design to restore a secure connection in the lighting circuit.

Compatible With 1973 Ford Mustang, w/ Metal Body; 3 Wires, 1971-1972 Ford Pinto, 3 Wires, and 1970 Mercury Cougar, rear window defogger module connector compatible with rear HVAC floor mode door actuator harness and power seat switch.

Key Features

• Parking light bulb socket / pigtail assembly
• 3 connector terminals with male wire-lead terminals
• 3-wire design for direct electrical repair use
• Built with high-grade materials for strong conductivity and consistent contact
• OE-style replacement for failed sockets and damaged connectors
• Standard Ignition S-86 cross-references to common replacement numbers for the same application

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition S-86 is part of a broad socket and pigtail lineup developed for electrical service across a wide range of vehicles and systems. This parking light bulb socket is engineered to address connector wear, heat damage, corrosion, and intermittent lighting faults by restoring the wire-lead connection at the socket interface. The design focuses on dependable conductivity and a stable electrical path, which is important when servicing older Ford and Mercury applications such as the 1973 Ford Mustang and 1971-1972 Ford Pinto.

This part cross-references 6S1063 and 57-4846 for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Broken or brittle parking light socket wiring
• Intermittent parking light operation
• Corroded or heat-damaged connector terminals
• Poor bulb contact caused by worn socket internals
• Electrical faults in original lighting pigtails

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the connector style, terminal count, and wire count against the original part before installation. Match the existing harness layout and confirm proper terminal orientation so the socket seats correctly and the circuit maintains continuity. Inspect nearby wiring for heat damage or corrosion before connecting the replacement pigtail.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition designs its pigtails and sockets with technician-focused fitment and repair needs in mind, using materials selected to support reliable conductivity and consistent connections. The S-86 is intended as an OE-style electrical repair component for restoring failed original sockets.
