What is the model of the Mondeo fog light?
2 Answers
The model of the Mondeo fog light is H7. The function of the fog light is to make other vehicles see the car when visibility is affected by weather conditions such as fog or rain, so the light source of the fog light needs to have strong penetration. Generally, vehicles use halogen fog lights, and LED fog lights are more advanced than halogen fog lights. The following are the classifications of car lights: 1. Headlights: Combined headlights are located at the front of the car, mainly serving the purpose of lighting and signaling. The light emitted by the headlights can illuminate the road conditions in front of the car body, allowing the driver to drive safely at night. 2. Combined taillights: Combined taillights are located at the rear of the car, mainly serving the purpose of lighting and signaling. 3. Turn signals: Used to indicate to other road users that the car is turning left or right. Regulations require them to be amber in color. 4. License plate lights: License plate lights are mainly used to illuminate the license plate, allowing people to identify the vehicle license plate at night.
I remember when I last replaced the fog lights on my Ford Mondeo, I used the H11 model, which is the most common type. However, the specific model year can affect the bulb type. For example, older models might use H3 or H11, while newer models like those from 2018 onwards mostly use H11. You can check the owner's manual—there's a parts section that lists all the bulb types. If you don't have the manual, take the car to a repair shop and ask, or remove the old bulb to check the label. The model number is usually engraved on the base. Never guess the wrong type, as it might not light up or could damage the circuit, affecting driving safety in foggy conditions. Faulty fog lights can severely impact visibility, especially in rain or fog, which is very dangerous. I recommend checking the bulb brightness regularly—after about three years, they may age and need replacement. H11 bulbs are quite affordable online, and you can replace them yourself, but remember to wear gloves to avoid oil contamination.
