ROakley Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Hello all, I have a 2015 Mk3 focus titanium with ambient lighting that is red. i wanted to change this to blue so bought some LED 501 bulbs on eBay that fit the boot fine. Went to the footwell assuming these are the same and have an LED on a small board. Anyone know how to change these to blue? thank you!

alexp999 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 They are SMD LEDs, you'd have to re-solder a different colour, if you could work out the spec. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROakley Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 Can you not replace them? I can’t seem to find a fitting anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 The LED is soldered directly to the pcb that the cable clips in to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROakley Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 Can you not replace the pcb with a different coloured board or splice it to a new plug and bulb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abbadon Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I am not sure all Titanium have variable colour and brightness - i thought that was TitaniumX (or extra option) only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that's correct. Colour changing is only standard on the Titanium X. Red only on the Titanium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 On my 3.5 the wiring is there and the pins are present but no PCB. It’s a 3 pin setup, does anyone know what the 3 wires are, why are there 3? If I knew what the wires were then I would splice into them and fashion my own setupSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbadon Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 They might be R G B, but usually this would have 4 wires, Red, Green, Blue and earth, so its more likely power, signal and ground, signal being control line to set a colour using canbus or similar?
