2016 Ford Explorer Bulb Sizes
2016 Ford Explorer stores 20 bulb-chart rows across 17 lighting positions. Halogen high beam is 9005. LED headlight equipment is stored as its own configuration, not as an extra bulb in the halogen lamps.
Stored halogen, HID, Bi-LED, and LED rows are alternative equipment when the chart lists more than one. A vehicle uses one lighting system. Verify the lamps installed before ordering. A halogen bulb is not the replacement for an LED assembly, and an LED conversion is not shown as the OEM halogen bulb.

Replacement check
Read the number on the installed bulb or the housing. Confirm whether the headlights are halogen, HID, or an LED assembly. H11 and H11B are different. 9005 and 9006 are different. This page does not substitute a nearby designation to fill the product list.
Questions
What is the Ford Explorer low-beam bulb?
2016 Ford Explorer stores LED for the halogen low beam. Choose the LED headlight configuration separately when the chart lists one. These are not installed together.
What is the Ford Explorer high-beam bulb?
2016 stores 9005 for the halogen high beam.
Does the 2016 Ford Explorer chart include fog lights?
No fog-light bulb is stored for this year. This page does not add one.
What turn-signal bulb does the Ford Explorer use?
Halogen-configuration turn signals in 2016 store 3757A, 7440A. An LED-headlight configuration can list LED instead of these bulbs.
What brake-light bulb does the Ford Explorer use?
Halogen-configuration brake lights in 2016 store LED.
What does an LED record mean?
A stored part of LED means that configuration is recorded as an LED assembly. It is not a replaceable halogen bulb, and this page does not sell an LED conversion as the OEM bulb for that assembly.
Can I substitute a nearby bulb number?
No. H11 and H11B stay different. 9005 and 9006 stay different. This page matches the stored designation and does not swap in another bulb to fill the product list.
Does a catalog match guarantee the bulb fits?
A designation match means the product is filed under that bulb number and technology. It does not prove the lamp, socket, or vehicle configuration. Check the bulb in the housing before ordering.
How do I verify the replacement?
Read the number on the bulb or the housing, confirm whether the headlights are halogen, HID, or LED, and match that designation. Position names that say “with halogen headlights” or “with LED headlights” are separate configurations.
