Trailer rear fog light
The vehicle's rear fog light may not illuminate when a trailer is connected. In this case, rear fog light functionality is transferred to only the trailer. If this is the case, check to see if the trailer is equipped with a rear fog light before activating the vehicle's rear fog light when driving with a trailer to help ensure safe operation.
Symbols and messages in the instrument panel
If one or more of the turn signals or brake lights on the trailer is not working, a symbol and message will be displayed in the instrument panel. The other lights on the trailer must be checked manually by the driver before the vehicle is driven.
