2016 Ram 1500 turn signal bulb

The cargo light and bed lights (if equipped) will also turn
on for approximately 30 seconds when a RKE transmitter
UNLOCK button is pushed, as part of the Illuminated
Entry feature.
Multifunction Lever
The multifunction lever is located on the left side of the
steering column.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the arrows
on each side of the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective outside
light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is
moved, it would suggest that the indicator bulb is
defective.
