Hello all! New to the forum, I recently found a really nice great running ruby red metallic 2015 6th gen ford taurus SHO non-pp awd ecoboost. 117k and i got it for $7,750 from a private seller about 10 minutes from me. So far so good! I have to get it legal before I can drive it. I have done extensive research about these, common problems what to fix and what to watch out for. Atm i have one issue, the car was involved in an accident but was fully repaired. LF hit. Now my passenger side headlamp doesn't illuminate when the car is off and the headlamps delay is active but it appears the bulb might not be fully seated in the socket. When the car IS on it seems to be working! Any ideas?? Sorry for the long post wanted to air out important information. Attached below is a few pics of my new toy!

Congrats and welcome to SVTP!
Couple of guys here know and have modded SHOs.
Your gen SHO is the only one I haven’t owned. Still miss my ‘89 and ‘94s great cars.

Welcome to SVTPerformance! And congratulations on finding that good looking SHO. Great color. Is that blacked out front grill factory? I like it.

It's an aftermarket one. Reason being is it was replaced after a minor front left collision. LF fender and bumper cover were replaced.
