Turn and Lane-Change Signals
An arrow on the instrument cluster flashes
in the direction of the turn or lane change.
Move the turn signal lever all the way up or
down to signal a turn.
Partially raise or lower the lever for less
than one second until the arrow starts to
flash to signal a lane change. This causes
the turn signals to automatically flash three
times. It will flash six times if Tow/Haul
Mode is active. Holding the turn signal lever
for more than one second will cause the
turn signals to flash until the lever is
released.
The lever returns to its starting position
whenever it is released.If after signaling a turn or a lane change the
arrows flash rapidly or do not come on, a
signal bulb could be burned out. If equipped
with LED turn signals, see your dealer.
Replace any burned out bulbs. If a bulb is
not burned out, check the fuse. See
Fuses
and Circuit Breakers 0329.
Turn Signal On Chime
If the turn signal is left on for more than
1.2 km (0.75 mi), a chime sounds at each
flash of the turn signal. A message may
appear in the Driver Information Center
(DIC). See Vehicle Messages 0125. To turn
the chime and message off, move the turn
signal lever to the off position.
Fog Lamps
If equipped, the fog lamp control is near the
exterior lamp control to the left of the
steering column.
The ignition must be on for the fog lamps
to come on.
#: Press to turn the fog lamps on or off.
A light will come on in the instrument
cluster.
When the fog lamps are turned on, the
parking lamps automatically turn on.
When the headlamps are changed to high
beam, the fog lamps also go off. When the
high-beam headlamps are turned off, the fog
lamps will come on again.

Camper/Fifth-Wheel Trailer Wiring Package
For vehicles without the fifth wheel/
gooseneck trailer package, the seven-wire
camper harness is under the rear bumper,
attached to the frame near the rear
crossmember. A connector must be added to
the wiring harness that connects to the
camper.
The harness contains the following camper/
trailer circuits:Stop/Turn
Signal Left Yellow/Blue
Stop/Turn Signal
Right Green/Violet
Tail/Parking Lamps Gray/Brown Reverse Lamps White/Green
Battery Feed Red/Green
Ground White
Electric Trailer Brake Blue
If equipped with the heavy-duty trailering
option, see “Heavy-Duty Trailer Wiring
Harness Package” earlier in this section.
When the camper-wiring harness is ordered
without the heavy-duty trailering package, a
seven-wire harness with a seven-pin
connector is at the rear of the vehicle and is
tied to the vehicle's frame.
Trailer Lamps
Always check that all trailer lamps are
working at the beginning of each trip, and
periodically on longer trips.
If equipped, the Trailering App will monitor
the RH turn/brake lamp circuit, LH turn/
brake lamp circuit, running lamp circuit, and
reverse lamp circuits on the trailer. DIC
messages and Trailering App alerts may be
displayed if lighting circuit issues are
detected on the trailer. Pressing START LIGHT TEST in the Trailering
App automatically activates the trailer
lamps. The Trailering App is not a substitute
for manually inspecting your trailer lamps.
See
Trailering App 0286.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When properly connected, the trailer turn
signals will illuminate to indicate the vehicle
is turning, changing lanes, or stopping.
When towing a trailer, the arrows on the
instrument cluster will illuminate even if the
trailer is not properly connected or the bulbs
are burned out.
Tow/Haul Mode
For instructions on how to enter Tow/Haul
Mode, see Driver Mode Control 0244.
Tow/Haul assists when pulling a heavy
trailer or a large or heavy load. See Tow/
Haul Mode 0235.
Tow/Haul Mode is designed to be most
effective when the vehicle and trailer
combined weight is at least 75% of the
vehicle's Gross Combined Weight Rating
(GCWR). See “Trailer Weight” underTrailer
Towing 0272.
