Overview
Cadillac SRX tail lights-also called tail lamps, rear lights, rear lamps, or brake-light assemblies-sit at each back corner of the crossover and help drivers behind you see, stop, and turn safely. They use a mix of bulbs or LEDs (depending on model year) wired through the body-control module, protected by fuses, and must meet federal lighting rules. This guide explains how they work, what can go wrong, how to fix or upgrade them, and answers the questions shoppers type into search engines most often.
Function & Safety
* Visibility: The red running filament or LED strip glows whenever the headlights are on so cars behind can judge distance. (ManualsLib)
* Signaling: The brighter stop/turn circuit warns drivers when you brake or signal a turn. (ManualsLib)
* Regulations: U.S. law (49 CFR §393.11) requires red rear lamps visible to 1,000 ft at night and bans amber stop lamps. See the regulation.
Design & Years
* 2004-2009 (Gen 1): Tall, clear-lens LED stacks add style but can lose individual diodes over time. (Cadillac Forums)
* 2010-2016 (Gen 2): Wrap-around housings hold conventional 7440/7443 bulbs for turn/stop plus LED strips for running lights, making DIY bulb swaps cheaper. (ManualsLib, ManualsLib)
* Shape matters: The lamps also house the back-up light and side marker, so a cracked lens can let water reach several circuits at once. (Cadillac Forums)
Common Problems
| Symptom | Likely Cause | Quick Fix |
| Fog inside lens | Normal condensation after cool, damp night | Drive with lights on; clears in 2-6 h. (NHTSA) |
| Pool of water | Failed gasket or cracked lens | Reseal, dry with silica packs, or replace housing. (YouTube) |
| Half the LEDs dark | Open circuit on LED board | Replace or re-flow solder; full assembly if sealed. (Cadillac Forums) |
| Both lamps out | Fuse 65/66 (trailer stoplamp) blown in rear panel | Check 10 A fuse; inspect wiring. (StartMyCar) |

Maintenance Tips
- Bulb Change: Remove two Torx screws in the hatch opening, pull lamp straight back, twist the socket, and swap the 7440 (turn/stop) bulb-see this short video walk-through.
- Seal Check: Shine a flashlight around the lens edge; white residue shows past water lines. Replace foam or use butyl rubber to reseal. (NHTSA)
- Clean Connectors: Road salt can corrode the 4-pin plug; use dielectric grease after cleaning with contact spray. (Cadillac Forums)
Upgrades & Customization
- LED Bulb Swap: Plug-in LED replacements pull less power and light up faster; make sure they are CAN-bus compatible to avoid hyper-flash. (Cadillac Forums)
- Smoke Films: Thin vinyl tints must still transmit enough red light to stay legal-check local rules before darkening the lens.
- Sequential Turn Kits: After-market modules plug between the lamp and harness to produce Mustang-style sweeps; they may void lamp warranty.
Legal & Compliance
* Always keep the red reflectors intact; removing them violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108. (eCFR)
* Use NHTSA's recall search to check VINs-earlier SRX models were part of broader rear-suspension and lighting campaigns such as 14V571. (NHTSA)
* Canada and EU road rules mirror U.S. brightness standards but differ on rear fog-lamp color; verify before importing the vehicle.
Recycling & Disposal
Old lamps contain plastics, circuit boards, and sometimes lead-soldered LEDs. Most county recycling centers accept them as "mixed e-waste." Remove bulbs first and recycle glass separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know which bulb my SRX uses?
A: Check the sticker on the lamp body or the owner's manual; most 2010-2016 models use 7440 for turn/stop, while earlier LED clusters are not serviceable. (ManualsLib)
Q: The tail lamp looks cloudy inside-do I replace it?
A: A light mist is normal and should disappear after a few hours of driving; replace only if water pools or the haze covers more than half the lens. (NHTSA)
Q: My brake lights work but the running light strip is dark-why?
A: On LED models, the running circuit uses a separate board; if that board fails, you'll need a new assembly or a professional board repair. (Cadillac Forums)
Q: Which fuse controls the rear lights?
A: On many 2014 SRXs it's mini-fuse 65 (right trailer stop) and 66 (left) in the rear compartment panel. (StartMyCar)
Q: Can I install smoked covers legally?
A: Only if the lamp still meets brightness tests-most aftermarket covers reduce output below required levels, so use clear protective film instead. (eCFR)
Q: Do I need resistors with LED bulbs?
A: Yes, install inline 6-ohm resistors or CAN-bus LED bulbs to keep the turn-signal flash rate normal. (Cadillac Forums)
