Was of great help as to the bulbs. however, I have a 2003 Ford Sport Trac that had no left low beam. replaced bulb as stated above. Still no left low beam. Well a little checking and I found that there was a 10 amp fuse in the Power Distribution Center (black box under the hood sitting behind the battery) inside there is a 10 amp fuse for low beam. One for left and one for right. I replaced this fuse and low beam working without issues. The fuse #s are 38 left and 42 right. Check your owner's manual to be sure yours are in the same location. Might want to check these two fuses before buying lights. Even if they look ok ? Replace before doing the above.
Thank you for the above information. Was indeed a great help.
Wow perfect vid! I had a broken head light. I bought a used one. Thought I was going to have to dismantle the front of the truck. It could almost be done with no tools. Thanks for sharing!
I am so excited to do this!!! my headlights are so crazed over there is barely any light coming from them.
That was a very helpful video. I didn't realize that the tabs could be lifted up with pliers.
Thanks for posting it.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
The first time I watched this, I nearly had a panic attack! Then I watched it again. Took me about half an hour, as I'm not good with stuff like this (square peg in the round hole!) but I got it. Thanks so much!
@1aauto Thanks for taking the time to reply. I was able to pop out the lens easily and inside there are two bulbs, but they look somewhat tricky since they won't budge at all. I'm thinking if maybe it requires pulling out the overhead console, it's a simple console since there's no moon roof. Just compass, dome lights, compartment for garage opener. Unfortunately I don't want to pry it too hard as to not break it since I could be wrong about removing it and I can't find instructions anywhere.
I am satisfied with everything I've bought from you and especially thankful for the How To video's. Thanks again

Thanks. Watched the video after being thoroughly confused and it cleared it right up for me. Was able to replace both in just a few minutes. Much appreciated.
@shopqueen1 Thank you for visiting our CZcams auto repair channel.
I thought it would be more difficult to replace the head light bulb but this video gave me a sigh of relief. Thanks for this.
@Heatherstang You're very welcome. We're glad that we could help you out. Have a great day!
Thanks for the Video ! I had no idea it was that simple. My 2005 Explorer did not even need to remove the screw. I just pulled up the tabs and did it.
Thanks again .
My tabs were stuck and I couldn't figure it out. This got me through it! Thank you.
+Ross Newton Nice work. We're glad the video helped you out. For anyone else looking to replace their headlights, 1A Auto offers a variety here: www.1aauto.com/1A/HeadLights/Ford/ExplorerSportTrac?CZcams&CTA%20Comment&ATony
Awesome, you saved me lots of time.
Thank you
We currently do not have an auto repair video that shows you how to do this. There Should be 3-4 bolts on the sides of the headlights that hold them in place. If you remove those they should come out for you. We offer the replacement headlights on our website for your truck. Here's a link to them. 1aauto.com/1A/HeadLights/Ford/Explorer/1ALHP00045/257865/1991?ATony
Thanks...I am more confident working on the light without breaking it!
@MrFunN4Lo You're welcome thank you for checking us out. We carry a massive selection of new headlights at great prices. Our main website is 1aauto.com
thx for this tip. After fiddling with the housing for 30 mins i found your video. worked perfectly.
I just did this one my 04 and all I had to do was pull those two little tabs. No need to for removing the blinker.
lol and yes, a pair of pliers were needed.
Thank you!! I did this on my wifes 2003 Explorer only difference was the screw was a hex head.I would have never figured the tabs out just by looking at it. It actually took me longer to find the right socket for the screw.
Thank you guys for this and all of your other videos!
LOTS OF GOOD KARMA COMMIN' YOUR WAY!!!!!!
Thanks! Made it super simple to install some leds
no problem at all. Thanks for wathcing our 01-05 Ford Explorer headlight replacement video. Have a great day!
lol...no problem at all. Thank you for taking the time to visit us on CZcams. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Thanks for the great video !!! I will change my burned out bulb right now.
great video, you saved me so much time.
@RikuSpirit On most vehicles you can usually squeeze the ends together on the light lens and it usually pops off to get at the bulb, or there may be a screw that holds it in place. I don't have the truck here anymore to take a look at. It's usually pretty easy though.
thanks for this video! I was able to replace the headlight today =D Although i kept trying to pull the actual bulb from the socket, turns out the bulb and socket have to be replaced together, when you pick up the new one it'll include them both. Unfortunately the dome light for the driver/front passenger is also out, any chance you could show us how to replace the front dome light please?

Thanks!
Thank you! Very informative!
+Adam Verret Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Great job, made a hard looking task simple and easier...
Thank you very much! Changing mine on both sides due to lenses being yellow and foggy looking over the years. And before anyone mentions, yes, I've tried restoring them, but didn't work too well.....This won't affect the direction of the lights though will it?
@DeadorAlive19 I believe you mean the foglights? Installing them physically is not the problem as there are just fillers installed in place of them. Pull out the filler panels and you can install the lights. The problem is wiring them and having a switch inside the vehicle. That is a whole different ball game. To do it right you'd want to install an OE style switch. Then after that the wiring may be there but if not you'll have to wire everything.
GOD bless you man you make me depend on my self
thank you a million time ^^
@RikuSpirit The bulbs should either twist or pull out of their sockets.

THANKS!
I have a 2003 Ford explorer sport trac that leaks every time it rains. The unit works just fine closes and opens, I just don't know if the drains are clogged or simply missing gaskets or plastics that would keep the water from seeping in. I asked dealer and they said it does not have gaskets, any advice?
good job, thanks

Use some WD40 on those tabs. Dollar General $2 one is excellent.
What happens when you do a complete assembly on your lights still don't work
