Elite LED Fog Lights for the 2021-2023 Ford F-150 were designed for maximum performance and functionality. They include programmable daytime running lights, turn signals, and a welcome sequence. When connected to Elite Max LED Headlights, the fog lights also feature an integrated show mode.
This programming guide provides instructions for programming Elite LED Fog Lights when they are operated independently on the 2021-2023 Ford F-150. Read the Programming Tips before beginning, then continue below for step-by-step instructions!
Note: These instructions should only be used when the fog lights are operated independently.

Programming Tips
- Parking in front of a window or reflective wall makes it easier to see the programming feedback from the fog lights.
- Each programming mode follows a similar process. After completing one or two settings, the method should become familiar.
- Always begin with the vehicle off and the fog-light switch in the OFF position.
- Each programming mode requires the fog lights to be toggled off and back on a specific number of times. If you lose count, switch the fog lights off, wait 10 seconds, and start again.
