Backup Lamps

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Jeep Liberty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The backup (or reverse) lamps have a path to ground at all times through a takeout and eyelet terminal of the rear lighting wire harness that is secured by a ground screw to the base of the right D-pillar behind the quarter trim panel. The backup lamps receive battery voltage from a fused ignition switch output (run) fuse on the back-up lamp feed circuit only when the backup lamp switch (manual transmission) or the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS - electronic automatic transmission) is closed by the gearshift mechanism within the transmission.
