2024–2026 Ford Ranger bulb sizes by lighting equipment
The 2024–2026 Ranger can use replaceable bulbs and LED lamps in different positions. Ford’s North-American manuals identify Low, Mid and High Series lighting equipment. Match the lamp fitted to your truck; a headlight type alone does not identify the fog or rear-light configuration.
For the Low Series headlamp, Ford lists H18 low beam and HB3 high beam. The original replaceable fog bulb is H11. Factory LED versions have their own service requirements.

Diode Dynamics high-beam LED options
For a 2024–2026 Ranger with original factory halogen high beams, Diode Dynamics lists these exact 9005-family SL2 and SL2 Pro bulbs as direct replacements. Ford’s original high-beam designation remains HB3. These options do not replace factory LED headlamps or establish fit in an unidentified replacement housing.
Select Cool White (6000K) for the SL2 listing: the supported part is DD0463P. The SL2 Pro white pair is DD0481P. Each listed package contains two bulbs.
LED headlight conversion bulbs may not comply with FMVSS/CMVSS requirements for on-road use. Check applicable state and provincial laws before use.
Diode Dynamics H11 fog-light options
If your 2024–2026 Ranger has original removable H11 fog bulbs, Diode Dynamics lists these replacements with tested electrical compatibility and no modification. Check the fog lamps independently of the headlights. These bulbs do not replace factory LED fog assemblies.
Shop SL2 fog — White · Shop SL2 fog — Yellow
The SL2 listing offers DD0467P white or DD0468P yellow. The other options are DD0158P HP48 white and DD0165P XP80 white. All four packages contain two bulbs. HP48 is a cosmetic upgrade; choose it for appearance rather than increased driving illumination.

The following entries agree across the three separately checked Ford Canada/United States manuals. The equipment and power labels below follow Ford’s tables; they are not a trim-name chart.
| Lamp / function | Ford specification by equipment | Listed power |
|---|---|---|

| Daytime running lamp (If equipped). | Low Series – H18 Mid and High Series – LED | Low Series – 21W Mid and High Series – LED |

| Front turn signal. | Low and Mid Series – WY28/8W High Series – LED | Mid and Low Series – 28W High Series – LED |

Ford states that the LED lamps in this chart are not serviceable and directs dealer service if they fail. The center high-mounted cargo lamp entry describes cargo illumination; it is not a third-brake-light bulb specification.
Why the H18 low beam needs a separate fit check
Match the original H18 low-beam bulb to a confirmed replacement. The options shown above cover high beams and fog lights. Mid and High Series LED headlamps use their own service path.
Turn signals, rear lamps and plate lights
Front signals are WY28/8W on Low and Mid Series equipment, with LED on High Series. A Mid Level headlamp does not automatically mean an LED front signal: Ford includes a separate front-turn bulb procedure for Mid Level headlamps.
At the rear, Low and Mid Series turn signals use WY21W and reversing lamps use W21W; High Series versions are LED. Low Series rear/stop and rear-position entries use W21/5W at their separately listed power levels. Keep each function in the chart separate when identifying the installed lamp.
Low Series plate lamps use W5W; Mid and High Series plate lamps are LED. The table’s front-position and rear-position labels should not be used to guess an additional side-marker bulb. Factory LED lamps require their own module or assembly service information.
Common Ranger bulb questions
Can I choose bulbs just from XL, XLT, Lariat or Raptor?
The checked bulb tables use lighting-series labels rather than assigning every entry to those trims. Identify the actual headlamp, fog and rear-lamp equipment before selecting a replacement.
Are two bulbs included, or does my truck need two?
Each shown package contains two bulbs. Select the light position you are replacing.
Does this chart cover the older Ranger?
This page currently documents the North-American 2024, 2025 and 2026 Ranger. Older generations and other-market Ranger models need their own source chart.

Manufacturer fit and product-use details
Ford lists H18 for Low Series low beams. The DD H7 listing remains unresolved for that original bulb: one answer conditions fit on an original H7, while another says H11. No H7 option is assigned as a confirmed H18 replacement here.
Diode Dynamics states these bulbs are not DOT compliant for headlamps on public roads in the United States. Follow the selected product’s instructions and stated intended use.
Ford North-American owner manuals: 2024 Ranger, printed 415–416; 2025 Ranger, printed 409–410; 2026 Ranger, printed 434–435. Each manual supplies its own model-year evidence.
