New LED bulbs From Lasfit to fit Maverick

[SafetyGuy]

You should probably check if the lights are even working!!

Old cars had a relay that clicked faster when the voltage changed from a bad bulb.

Now it's all computer stuff and the computer might not even send voltage if it thinks the bulb is burnt out, but give you the hyper flash in the dash to mimic the old school indicator a bulb is out (hyper flash).

Good afternoon, @AutobahnSHO

So, I had checked, with my wife's assistance when I changed the rear LED brake lights and 3rd brake light, to make sure everything was working (I was going to add it in my previous post but was attempting to not write as much as I normally do).

Everything checked out.

But, you raised the question so we went back to the garage and we recorded the whole light test...and I then watched the video...so, I can now confirm in triplicate that the lights are all operating normally.

The only difference is that they are more visible now, and the hyper clicking on the cab in the truck is the only indication that there has been a change.

Here is a little example of the lights....I had to learn how to make a GIF.

Last note, when we pull our truck out for the first time every day, I do check that all my brake lights are coming as needed...running lights, brake lights and signal lights - I just watch for their reflection on the wall behind me (I always back into our garage...backing onto roadways is an unnecessary risk, even on our quiet street).

Now that I learned this new tool, I can go back to my close calls dash cam thread and actually try to add my videos to them, so, not a waste of time learning how to make GIFS and trim video's here!

Cheers,

Andy

They don’t light up at all. No lights when I hit the brakes and no blinking when turn signals or hazards are on.
Had to stick my arm out the window to signal other drivers when stopping or turning!

That's insteresting. I got the new D series bulbs too.
My dashboard hyperflashes occasionally, but the bulbs themselves still light up.

Good stuff!

Forgot to mention, I have the front switchback (older, non-Upgraded T3) installed as well. Never had issue with hyper flash on the front bulbs until I installed LEDs on the rear as well, wondering if there's a stack up tolerance occurring that's sending it over. I emailed Lasfit to see if they've tested a Maverick with both front and rear installed, will see what the response is.

Can any confirm if you're getting hyper flash on the Upgraded T3 switch back front signals and D series rear bulbs?

Thank you for posting this information.
Please update us on what LastFit says about using their tail lights with the switchbacks
I have the switchbacks. I love how bright they are. When I'm making a turn with my turn signal on nobody coming at me can mistake my intentions.
I've even considered buying one pack of two bulbs for the tail lights and just using one bulb on each side. Hoping to lessen the chance of a hyperflash

I have the T3 bulbs in the front and D series in the back and it hyperflashes occasionally.
However it works fine if I switch the headlights to on instead of auto.

I had this issue as well. I would blind oncoming traffic (at night) every time I was waiting to make a left or right turn. I resolved this issue by covering most of the LEDs with electric tape. Now they flash at or near OEM spec.

Oh, that's a good idea. I don't believe I kept the OEM's so this would seem to be a good compromise. I think I'll try a tape that is a bit more opaque. I'd like them to brighter than the OEMs, but not so much like stadium lighting!

Hey, Glen. I'm sure you're aware that LasFit has finally marketed a new rear brake bulb that they say will work on the hybrid Maverick. I haven't ordered yet. Selfishly awaiting a review from a member who has them installed.

My face is RED, My rear brake lights are not LED. I checked while installing the Lasfit Backup Light Bulbs T3-WT21W. All four are Halogen.

Maverick LARIAT:
Ford website says "LED Taillamps."

Dealer website says "LED Brakelights."

From my 2025 Ford Maverick Lariat Dealer website printout:

I will be talking to my dealer on Monday.

I found out my 2025 Ford Maverick Lariat has LED Brake lights. LED Brake lights are standard on the 2025 Ford Maverick High series.

Hmmm, I know I changed my brake lights on my 2025 (produced in December 2025) Maverick Lariat Hybrid. Mine was an early build, though. Things can change.

They were halogen of the "least expensive order".

Now my led brake lights work great with the led pulsing 3rd brake light on the back of the cab (where it strobes 3 or 4 times and then stays on solid) when the brake is applied.

I do have the what other people call "hyper flashing" indicator in the cab. But I don't care about that, as I think that makes sure I don't forget to turn off the signal after a lane change!

If they do come out with good LED tail lights that don't set off the "bulb out hyper flash", I may consider them...but happy with what I have right now.

Now, if someone could make a good quality running/brake light for putting in the hitch receiver that would be great! All I could find are ones that also flash when a signal is selected.

Good morning Robert

I wouldn't get too worked up about it (that raises our blood pressure and I hear that is bad for us ;-)...but I would also check with the dealer to clarify and see what they have to say.

I am sure all the web sites/literature and such have the usual disclaimers that they may contain mistakes etc, but it doesn't hurt to check. My owners manual was clear what each light is as well, so give yours a look as well.

I sure do like the led lights we put in though! Not perfect with the hyper clicking in the cab, but it doesn't bother me as everything works as it should (have a look at the 3rd tail light, we got one that strobes/flashes each time the brake is applied, works great!)

Have a nice day,

Andy

Are there any alternatives to Lasfit?

There are thousands of alternatives. Lasfit is just one company.

 

[Ryom]

So the latest bulbs that Lasfit say are for the 2025 model year are reported to hyperflash from time to time, especially if you have LED replacements all around?

I was stopped and threatened with a ticket while riding a 50 year old motorcycle and using such hand signals to indicate turns. The cop didn’t the meaning of a right turn hand signal.

Basic driving knowledge is as common as it was...but hand signals should still work on a bike of any vintage!

Maybe the officer never learned how to properly signal when young and learning how to ride their bicycle. As well as what the laws were...and not taught at their police academy, it may be considered "too old" of information for the current generation.
