I greatly appreciate you for making this video. It helped me to replace the front right turn signal bulb in my 2013 C-Max E-nergi. I would not have known otherwise to remove the top fender screws (and about the tab on the light assembly housing). With your help I successfully removed the assembly and replaced the bulb in just minutes. Sincerely, thank you! Also, my bulb was incandescent so I stayed with that for the replacement only because I slightly fear change, but thank you again for helping me.

Once again. Those Auxito - M3 are worth the money. Fun fact, car light review tested those led bulbs. And it’s well balanced. Auxito claimed it’s 30aw per bulb. But it’s 22.4W per bulb for the observation. And after 27 minutes of run time, which is the commuter time in the us. They get cooled up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Any led bulbs that’s for all in one or internal driver or a led bulb with an external driver, with the main unit gets under 150 degrees Fahrenheit is a plus, on external driver for around 150 degrees Fahrenheit is about average. For all in one, anything that’s above 150 degrees Fahrenheit is something u need to take in the consideration. The higher the temperature, the shorter the lifespan. The lower the temperature, the longer the lifespan. But those led bulbs will not work well for those headlight housing. It’s not because led will not work with reflector. They do. It’s the offset of the halogen bulbs. When u see the halogen bulb position sideways. And u turn to angle to remove it. And then put the nice two sided led bulbs. The orientation is completely wrong, the led chips are facing up and down or 6-12 o’clock: and it will not use the reflector housing to mimic the same beam pattern as oem. I would change the Auxito - M3, and get either Auxito - Y13 or Y19. Because it has comes with Allen wrench to loose the set screw, to adjust the orientation. If u wonder what is the box between the led bulb and the connector, it’s an external driver for heat management and longevity.

Thank you so much. I just changed my headlight bulb using your tutorial.

Bravissimo , dimostrazione splendida 👍

Спасибо за видео! Я поменял в правой фаре лампу ближнего света на светодиодную не снимая фару. Но я видел, как мастер снимал эту фару не откручивая крыло. Но звук при этом был очень громкий и пугающий😁

Thank you for your video. The High LED Beams that I bought did not have that adaptor for me.

Excellent video. You are very good explaining how to do this and doing it. Many thanks.

Thank you for showing me that it is not as easy as changing a household light bulb so I'll have the professionals handle this next week 🙏

Thanks Dan! Appreciate your time and sharing this!

Actually u know what, nevermind. U got the correct orientation from the beginning. I truly thought it was offset because u had the headlights on sideways when u put the led bulbs on. 🤣🤣 sorry. The beam pattern looks much better now ❤️‍🔥

We need a comparison of before and after!

Thanks for video if possible, make a video on changing the oil in the transmission

Thank you! Love the instructions (why is EVERYTHING so hard to replace on the C-Max?) Also, love the shirt!

Can you try the signal? Auxito 3157?

It´s a real pain in the xxx to remove those headlight units. I did it a couple of months ago without removing the 2 bolts nearest the rear end, like you did. Why on GODS earth do the engineers make it that complicated. Jeeeeez. And like you also said, the cables to the connector are really short, why on GODS earth not make them just 10 centimeters longer?

Спасибо мужик!

ended up installing auxitos, they’re very nice however my high beams were different and i had to tinker a bit

Worked just like you showed, great video. I have a 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid that I just picked up. Problem though, after I replaced the bulbs I turned the vehicle on and they worked just fine, but after a few hours later I drove it, and the headlights would not stay on, only the brights. Any ideas on what it could be? I am going to take them out tomorrow and double check all the connections and do try it again. Any suggestions would be appreciated

I have attempted to install LED's twice in my 2013 C-Max Hybrid SEL. First was a set from C6 and the 2nd attempt a set by Daylead. Both would work only with the vehicle "on" but would cut out when started and in running mode. The ECM literally kills the headlights because of the draw. I attempted a cancelling capacitor but that didn't work either (and the box is way too big for interior placement in the assembly). I can't be the only one who's had issues with this, but nobody seems to have a fix?

I changed my lights , anyone car change to power battery saver mode ,? My card turn off right after I switched to led lights ? Anyone know how to how to fix this ?

I tried changing my headlights from halogen to LED. Whenever I turn the car on with the new bulbs, they light up for a split second but then won't stay on. Have you seen this before? Is this happening because I haven't changed the high beams as well? Do you know if there's a fix for what I'm going through?

This was a great vid and I really wanted LED's but after reading the comments I, like others, am left wondering if this is worth the brain damage? Did anyone have success the first time and what are the specs on that?

I attempted to use these and they will not work on my 2013 Cmax Energi. They come on for a brief second and power to plug shuts down. I have to turn car off replace with halogen and they come back on.

I physically can not remove the power supply cable I’ve tried for like an hour.

turns out these leds blind everyone on the road.. need to do something about it

and the rest of the lights!?

Whoever designed the headlight assembly on the C-max should have been fired.

incredibly crap design of the headlights, to require the tools and twiddling yo change a headlamp bulb! ! i think that replacement of a headlamp, turn signal, or brake lamp. vulnerable, should *require no tools* , being that these are "mission-critical" safety items!

Don’t fool yourself. These led will only fix the appearance! And you barely will see anything on the dark road
