Can Lamp-Out Sensor Trailer Connector Adapter be Used on a Ford F-150 Towing a Trailer with LEDs
Updated 10/16/2018 | Published 10/15/2018
Question:
Will the 20142 work for a Ford F-150. If not is there a product that does. I’m having the same issue with my faults and LED lights.

We've had customers use the lamp-out sensor trailer adapter, part # 20142, with Fords and it's worked great for them. The page mentions Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and Porsche but those are just examples of vehicles that are known for having the lamp-out sensors.
The # 20142 isn't actually vehicle specific and will work on your F-150.
