Replaced Interior Ambient Lights. Switchable Colors with Forscan

Still don't know why they stopped doing the color changing on modern F150's. My girlfriends 2025 Bronco has it but my Raptor doesn't??? Very good work!

How do we know the Ranger's OEM LED interior lights are not multi-color capable? Has anyone enabled the interior lighting menu with the OEM LED's?

Yeah I tried that before I replaced the lights and no it’s not multi colored.

This was something I did a while back and wanted to share it.

Replaced all the existing orange ambient lights with ambient lights that are capable of 7 colors. Then used forscan to enable the menu to let me choose from the available colors.

I knew this was done on the f150s but didn’t know the process to do it on this.

This seems to be somewhat popular in Southeast Asia. I contacted few of them and I bought myself the parts (It was wiring and led bulbs)

Disconnected the battery and then started prying majority of the interior dash. The one that took a while was the light next to the wireless phone charger (under the infotainment). The others were quiet straight forward. Also routed two more lights to the footwells.

Anyways, I guess it was kind of worth it. I mean doesn’t really add much and I could definitely do without it but it’s nice to have.

Thank you very much for sharing! I'd done this on my F150 Raptor and F250's but not the RR yet. Those models, the newer they get, they keep removing features.

Yeah they are definitely removing features. These don’t even get a glovebox lamp anymore. They also secretly removed 4 parking sensors (2 front, 2 rear) on the 25s. They were used mainly for active park assist which not many used. There’s also been missing power outlets etc.

Iagoffroad.com has a glovebox light that works really well and is currently on sale https://iagoffroad.com/iag-off-road-glove-box-light-for-2024-ford-ranger-ranger-raptor​

This is only for Lariat and up models correct? Not for standard XLT?
