    So I swapped them out with new led lights and housings. Right off the bat I had a turn signal go out on me, put in new led turns signals and had issues with the turn signal relay. Went and bought a led compatible relay and went to install it.

    Now I have nothing, the truck won't start, everything seems to be without power. I'm charging the battery up right now to see if that fixes the problem. Everything worked with the lights and old turn signal bulbs when I took it out for a test drive. All I have done is replace the bulbs and relay. Do Fords have some mysterious way to know if the dash is pulled apart to get to the relays????

    HELP!!!!

    The turn signal bulb is the one I refuse to go LED. For me it just isn't worth the hassle for a bulb that doesn't get used all that much and gets ignored by most people when I use it. Everything else is gradually being replaced with LED as the old bulbs die.

    Did you disconnect the battery to do the swap? Power must have been cut somewhere.

    Check your fuses. I believe furd was still using those fusible links right off the main batt cables. With the ign on grab the main power cable and wiggle it and listen for relays or components power up, Gould be cables too. Hard to say without seeing it.
