Dodge Durango Backup Lamps

The backup lamps on your Dodge Durango are a required component on every vehicle sold in the United States. Also known as reverse lights, they're the rear-mounted, rear facing white lights that alert other drivers and pedestrians to the fact that you're planning to head backwards. They also provide some needed additional illumination when you're reversing at night or in bad weather.

How to Check Your Backup Lamps Safely

If you have a friend or family member who can help, that's best. Ask them to stand behind your SUV, but safely to one side. Press your foot firmly against the brake pedal and carefully change into reverse gear. They'll be able to quickly see whether your backup lamps have lit up or not.

There's also a way to check by yourself, but proceed with extreme caution. Turn your ignition switch to "on" – but don't start your SUV. Firmly set your parking brake, and ease your transmission into reverse gear. Step out of the vehicle, stay to one side, and ease to the rear to confirm that your reverse lights have illuminated.
