lighting may be obtained by directly accessing the
connector inside the dome lamp.

For additional information on BCM

The battery saver system provides power for the

Power supply for the interior lights.
The BCM provides power to the interior lights by
three outputs, two for courtesy and one for
demand:
• Cabin light courtesy function - BCM pin C3-13
with maximum load of 5A
• Cargo light courtesy function - BCM pin C3-26
with maximum load of 5A
• Combined cabin and cargo light demand
function - BCM pin C3-14 with maximum load
of 7A
Each interior light circuit is grounded locally to the
lamp. The lamps fitted to the cabin or cargo circuit
depends on the vehicle type. To determine the
lamps on the rear or cargo circuit:
• Set any lights with a switch to courtesy.
• Close all the doors and allow the lights to
switch off.
• Open the door or lift gate at the rear of the
vehicle.
• Any interior lights that switch on are in the rear
cargo or rear zone.
If fluorescent lighting is required it must not be
connected to the existing interior cabin or cargo
lighting as it is not compatible with the pulse
width modulated (PWM) lighting circuit and may
cause premature failure of the Fluorescent
lighting. If Florescent lighting is required, it should
be connected to the Auxiliary Fuse Panel.
If enhanced bright lights are required for the cargo
area of a van, it is recommended to fit the Ford
Enhanced Load Space Lighting. Option A080 and
LED lamp part numbers BK2V-13776-A*, 4x on
medium (L2) and long (L3) wheelbase vehicles
and 5x on extra long (L4) wheelbase vehicles.
These are controlled from the side load or rear
door being ajar or manual demand from the dome
lamp in the front cabin. For further information on
required parts and configurations to order contact
your Local Ford Dealer.
