Title: Bulbs for backup lights for ‘06 TK
Post by: Jon & Loni on September 25, 2020, 06:43:10 pm
The rig is in storage so I can’t get to the manual, but I need to buy new bulbs for the backup lights. Anyone know what the bulb number is (incandescent)?  I’m getting conflicting info online. Thanks! — Jon

Our 2003 uses an 1156 for the backup lights.
Your 2006 uses a 3156, the same bulb with a different base.
You can look it up here in the Owner's Manual.

Larry, I have to disagree. The taillights, including the backup lights are aftermarket, not Ford. So the correct bulb for the backup light is 1156, just like yours and mine.

I stand corrected.

FYI, the brake and turn signals use 1157 bulbs. If you're going to buy some 1156 bulbs you might as well get a few 1157 ones too. Just say'n
