HEADLIGHT SWITCH NEEDED
Hello everyone.... I'm looking for a new headlight switch for my 2001 Excursion with fog lights. I called Ford and they provided the Ford and Motorcraft part numbers but it appears both are obsolete, no more, gone, and no where to be found.
Ford # 1C7Z-11654-DAA
Motorcraft SW-5624
Any suggestions?

The OE headlight switch W/Fogs has been gone a loooonnnnng time. When I added factory fogs I was left searching for the OE switch.
Those switches posted above will most likely not work, as they have the Auto Headlight feature to the left, I have tried them. The OE headlight switch with fogs for the Excursion was very short lived, say late 2001 production till sometime in 2002 when the Auto feature came out.
The link below is the same seller that I bought my OE from, I can attest it was indeed NOS, and has worked perfectly. Yes I paid the same price, it was worth it, and is probably the very last OE NOS avail.

Thanks guys but I prefer NEW OEM parts if I can get one but it appears those are none to be found. I saw those from Rock Auto but they are w/o fog lights. I have fog lights.
I noticed there is a different part number for the 02-05 from the 00-01. Amazon has one for the 02-05 and it is with fog lights and auto dim. I don't have auto dim of course. I'm curious if it will work. Anyone know? I'm positive that I'm not the only one who has needed to replace one of these.

The only issue there is the eBay listing although says it's for a 2001-2002, there's a banner across the top of the page indicating it isn't compatible with the Excursion. This makes no sense! The same part is on Amazon for a dollar more. I'll buy it as long as I can cover my a$$. Amazon tends to do a great job protecting buyers. eBay, sometimes. Definitley a dilemma..

If I recall the Fog Lights were not avail till late 2001 production.
My production date was December 2000, and they were not an option on mine.
The seller sates free shipping and returns.

Here is the link to the Amazon listing;
It just lists it as a "Standard Motor Products DS-1356 Headlight Switch". On eBay they list it as a "NEW STANDARD DS1356 Headlight Switch for FORD (2001-2002)"
There's no mention that it is NOS but I believe it's New Aftermarket. I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on this. They do have a 100% feedback on eBay so that's reassuring. How long have you had yours and any comments if it functions any different than OEM?

Yes they are two the same. I checked with Amazon. It appears they are the only game in town. I placed the order with considering on the Amazon listing indicates there are only two left.
