Additional Notes

The 1893 is an ANSI-standardized miniature wedge bulb classified under the T5 form factor, operating at 12 volts and drawing 2 watts of power.
The T5 designation refers to the bulb's tubular shape, with the numerical suffix indicating its width in eighths of an inch, making it one of the smaller bulb types used in automotive instrument and display applications.
The Ford Maverick uses the 1893 bulb as the specified radio display bulb size across its 1970-1977 model years.
The 1893 bulb's wedge-style base means it is held in place by the socket itself rather than by a separate metal base with pins, which is a common trait in low-wattage automotive display lighting.
At 2 watts, the 1893 is a low-power bulb, consistent with its role in illuminating small display areas such as radio panels rather than providing primary or exterior lighting.
The ANSI standardization of the 1893 bulb indicates that its electrical and physical characteristics are governed by a recognized North American specification, applicable in both the United States and Canada.
