If your LED Trailer Tail Light w/ Reflector - Weatherproof - 4 Function - 76 Diodes - Clear/Red Lens
Item # DG52721PB on your 2018 Ford E-Series Cutaway is getting moisture in the reverse light then it is most likely not properly sealed. Allow the inside of the light to dry by either putting it in the sun or using a hairdryer. Start by removing the light from the vehicle. Should not be necessary to disconnect the wiring. Remove the old sealant. Wipe area with alcohol. Check foam pad on the back of the light and make sure it is not damp. If it is then it needs to dry. Once it is completely dry the light can be reinstalled and new sealant can be added around the outer edge with Alpha Systems Non-Sag Sealant 1010 - Low VOC - White - 10.3 oz
