Hey, so i didn't want to make a thread and the search function didn't bring up a whole lot and neither did google...
The 'wait to start,' 'oil at temp,' etc light have gone out in my 94 f250 7.3 turbo idi K code.
The bulbs say GE 37, i was wondering if there is another code for these bulbs and if there is an LED replacement.
Thank you!

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Almost 61, on its way to 90 today. Climbed 5° in the last 30 minutes.

I believe the GE 37 (or equivalent) pretty well covers it. I think there is an LED replacement, T5 or something, but I would caution about trying to use them in the instrument cluster. When I tore the cluster down to replace the lights in mine, I decided it was a big enough PIA that I was going to replace every light back there with new ones. At $4 or $5 a pop, LED's get real expensive, real fast. I've also heard that the LEDS are too bright for some folks...
GE 37's don't draw enough juice to make a diff so I've seen no reason to mess with the OEM set up.


There have been a number of threads on FTE over the years about light replacement with LED's. Shouldn't take much at all to do a search on FTE and come up with additional info.

Good morning everyone. Today started out much smoother than yesterday. My parents might be taking Mason over to Newport for the day, which would just leave me with the little guy to take care of.

A bit of dozing off, but more watching NCIS. I love the show but never got to watch it in order. Just random episodes here and there.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Hit 92 in the shade in the back yard today.

Home Depot was supposed to be here at 1300 to give me a roofing estimate and they were a no call-no show. Evan, did your folks have any problems with them in this regard?

I've gotten quite a few emails from their customer service rep over the last several days confirming the appointment and reminding me to make sure I call if my wife and I had something come up and both of us couldn't be here.

The problem is that now, even if they were to call with an excuse I could accept, tomorrow morning is the only time we are both going to have available to meet with them. Lowe's is going to be here tomorrow afternoon, but they don't care if my wife is here or not.

Good evening Ford Fans'. Made it through a crappy day, got thirty minutes out of the shop and got a call that one of my uncles had passed this morning, made for a good day doing delivers and driving through two county's.

Sorry to hear about your uncle's passing Chris. Praying for peace for your family.

Jim, my parents didn't mention any issues with the estimate, just install.

Good morning, Ford fans. It's Friday woohoo.
Thank you all for the prayers, it's not like we didn't know it was coming he's been fighting with cancer for a while. It just sucks losing more family.
