Technical characteristics and intended use

The presented centre stop light is a factory component from the Ford brand, designed specifically for the tailgate of the first-generation Transit Connect. The lamp construction is matched to the original mounting hole, which allows for maintaining a consistent body line and proper sealing at the installation point. The element belongs to the Main and centre stop lights group, responsible for clear braking signaling. Thanks to this, the vehicle's lighting system meets homologation requirements and safety standards used in commercial vehicles operated both in city traffic and on the road.

Compatibility and part identification

To facilitate the selection of the correct component in service catalogs and parts selection systems, dedicated markings have been used, including the OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers. This allows for verifying the lamp's compatibility with a specific body version and model year of the Ford Transit Connect Mk1, minimizing the risk of purchasing an incompatible element. The product also has an assigned SKU, which facilitates order processing in the online store and quick warehouse identification. Thanks to this, the purchasing and verification process is organized and transparent for the user.

Condition, functionality and service application

The offered centre stop light comes from the secondary market and has the status of a used component, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. This type of element is particularly useful for accident repairs, replacing a damaged lamp after a rear collision, or fixing faults related to the lack of a braking signal in the upper part of the vehicle. In practice, installation involves removing the old lamp from the tailgate and installing the presented element in its place, using factory mounting points and the existing electrical harness. This approach allows for maintaining the original wiring layout and lighting parameters provided by the vehicle manufacturer.

Benefits of using an original centre stop light

• Consistency with the factory design – maintaining the original lamp geometry and fitment to the Ford Transit Connect Mk1 tailgate.
• Proper braking signaling – improved readability of the stop signal for vehicles behind, especially when fully loaded.
• Reasonable repair cost – a used OEM element as an alternative to new parts while maintaining appropriate performance parameters.
• Easier diagnostics – clear catalog markings facilitate verification of compatibility with a specific model version. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or modernization of the rear lighting zone in your Ford and need other elements from the same group, such as combination lamps, additional stop lights, or central lighting modules, check the available parts in the Ford main and centre stop lights category.
