Dodge Charger Backup Lamps

The backup lamps at the rear of your Dodge Charger are essential pieces of safety equipment. Also called reverse lights, they're a required part. In fact, every vehicle sold in the US has to be equipped with rear-facing, rear-mounted lights that are white in color. The reason for this requirement is that these lights give drivers behind you a head's up that your Charger is about to start moving in reverse. The added illumination they provide at night doesn’t hurt either.

How to Safely Examine Your Backup Lamps

It's recommended that you ask a friend or family member assist you by standing behind the car, but off to one side. Keep your foot firmly pressed against the brake pedal and carefully shift from Park to Reverse. Your helper can easily and quickly determine if your bulbs are illuminated or not.

If you must test your backup lamps alone, there is another way. First, turn the ignition switch to "on"- but don't actually start the car Set your parking brake and then put your transmission into Reverse. Step out of your car, move carefully to the side at the rear of your Charger, and check your backup lamps.
