HEADS UP: the “Fahren” brand bulbs linked in the description of this video do not work with the 2012 + Ford Focus. I just bought them and they will work when the ignition is primed, but when you start the car they will throw a bulb fault error. If you want them to work, you’re going to need to also buy a canbus decoder, otherwise the car thinks your headlights are burnt out and will nit supply power to them.

@shahbajmiah9745 2 года назад

You need to use forscan with a OBD scanner with hs/ms switch and change the headlight setting to other hid type headlight it will still throw the message when you switch it on but won’t turn off when you start the ignition

You don’t have to, only the ones that you want/need to change. Check the laws in your country or state to see if they all must be the same type of light or bulb to be extra sure. 👍🏼

Should we put the same leds on the high beam side to?

@therealcdnuser 2 года назад

Don’t you need a load resistor for the Ford Focus? Every led I have tried lights up then goes out as power is cut. Car thinks the bulb is dead due to the low power draw from the led.

@mahmoudalshawi2010 4 года назад

Good job...And how about the cars that use the same bulb for high beam and low beam, like Chrysler 300 and charger?

@MidnightMarrow Год назад

Would work but not quite to the same degree as a normal bulb in a high beam position. If you look at headlights, you'll see the lowbeam has a little deflector right in front of it. The LED's are typically made to simulate halogen inside those fixtures and rely in the edges of the reflectors to project it. The high beam has an open reflector and while it'd work it wouldn't project quite like an exposed bulb I'd imagine. Pretty sure the pitch is a little different but I'm thinking the exposed nature just means more light straight from the source PLUS the side reflections. The LED's would simply have the left and right side reflections still.

@javiersaona69 Год назад

Hi I get led lights for focus,then turn on fine but when fire up the car it just go off so I bought led canbus and still same thing , what I need to do guys

@RadleyRadiation 3 года назад

I’m curious as to how you put LEDs in without having to adjust into the computer for the low beam throwing the Low Dipped Beam Fault warning in the dash and shutting the low beam off. And you didn’t show the replacement of the high beam

Same. I just bought a used 2013 Escape from a dealership with LED lights installed for the headlights. I don't know if the dealer put them in, or someone brought it in like that without the headlights working properly, but as soon as you start up the car, the lights go right out. They have the extra resistors installed even, they just don't work once the engine is running.

@ranalbertogarcia7813 4 года назад

I've heard that installing other headlights rather than OEM on Focus might end up bad. I've even seen comments about them turning off in the middle of the highway at night out of nowhere. Do these headlights work great or could they end up with the same issue?

@matthewposs8953 4 года назад

I installed them on mine and they work untill I turn the car on. It's because the car thinks the bulbs out because they run on such low power. Same for the blinkers led caused hyper flash. Led have been a nightmare.

@Cornell851 3 года назад

How do you adjust it too point a few degrees down plz?

@TeaRFrost 3 года назад

Inside the car, in the case of this focus, in the middle of the light controls there’s a small circular button with numbers to the right. Press it inwards until it pops out, then you can twist it anti-clockwise to turn it up to number 4, which turns the light direction downwards. The numbers are meant to represent the number of passengers in the back of the car, which naturally weighs the back down and the front up blinding others.

@simonsuv8376 4 года назад

In UK different bulb set up to your speck ours are h7 and you get problems with can bus which turns the light of even tried a can bus error box still turns of had to remove and put standard bulb back

@paulread3401 3 года назад

Instant MoT fail: Main lights MUST be as factory fitted. If you change halogen to LED, you are illegal, simples.

FYI Just read online that upgrading front facing bulbs on a car to LED in the UK is now classed as not road legal and is an MOT fail.

@steveblanmag7410 3 года назад

@@hum___h at the time of that post, i had in a pair of (knock off) supernova sv.4's i bought on amazon. I thought they were the same as those advertised in headlight revolution's videos. They are NOT. The light output was slightly better than stock, color more white-white, but the beam pattern is not very good. I moved those down to my fog lights and installed some hikari eye of megatron's. Slightly better beam pattern and a little more bright for less money. I wanted to get some of the S-v.4's or GTR Lighting's ultra's (both are on headlightrevolution) but i don't want to blind oncoming traffic or get a ticket.

@eyesofsociety4632 4 года назад

@@yoancota4293 I did some research and found out that you either have to get load resistors that require you to tap into your headlights and mount them on the inside of your engine because they get extremely hot I bought them at autozone for 15 bucks but never installed them instead I went to Amazon and found a plug and play canbus decoder harness for the h11 led bulb I just plugged them in and the problem went away and you don't have to cut into any wires..so I'll be taking back the load resistors to autozone for refund and I guess they also make canbus ready led bulbs too from what I saw at Amazon
