15S39/15V861
Description
The lighting control module (lcm) uses an internal relay, mounted to a circuit board, to control power to the headlights. The headlight relay is soldered to a circuit board at six different terminals. These solder joints may fatigue crack caused by repeated thermal cycling and/or vibration that can interrupt power to the headlights. The condition could be exacerbated by an insufficient amount of solder, reducing the adhesion between the solder and the terminal. Cracked solder joints on the circuit board of the lcm may result in loss of headlights while driving. Other lighting functions are unaffected by this condition.
Safety Risk
Loss of headlights while driving could potentially increase the risk of vehicle crash at night.
Remedy
Parts are now available to repair your vehicle. Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to install an lcm bypass module kit, which will assume control of the headlight functions, free of charge parts and labor.
Next Steps
