2019 Ford Expedition 3rd Brake Light question

[patriottuba2022]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on this forum. I'm a do it yourself guy and try to save money any way I can. This morning I attempted to take my car in to get an inspection sticker, thanks WV. It failed due to a faulty 3rd brake light. They wanted to charge approx 370 to repair.

With that being said, could I get a part number for this piece, as well as a general teardown procedure to remove/ replace the part?

Any help given is greatly appreciated. I will continue to update this thread with any info I come up with that will help the next guy.

Thank you,
James

First question is are you still under 3/36 or do you have an extended warranty? Should be covered.

 

[patriottuba2022]

No warranty coverage. 59,000 on the odometer.

I'm still looking for info that can help me get access to remove/replace the 3rd Brake Light. I pulled some trim panels but it doesn't seem clear at the moment.
If anyone has done anything to the rear hatch or that area and have the pictures with pieces exposed, please share them.

Thank you
James

3rd LED Brake Light Removal???

My 2018 Ford Expedition had condensation in the 3rd brake light and wasn't working. I bought a new one to replace it. I can't figure out how to remove the old one. No Google search or YouTube search shows anyone explaining how to do this. Looks like it just snaps in but I am afraid to break...

Do you see three access holes to stick a socket in there and unfasten the 3 retaining screws ?

Unfortunately I have not.
I may have to take the entire lift gate apart from the truck but won't do so until I have no more options.
I have looked at all these pictures/and other posts. One mentions it but the links are bad. The entire website is down. I was hoping for some guidance from someone who has attempted this repair.
