To check a backup alarm, first ensure the vehicle is in a safe and controlled environment. Shift the vehicle into reverse and listen for the alarm sound to confirm it is functioning properly. Additionally, visually inspect the alarm's indicators and test the sensors by placing an object behind the vehicle to see if the alarm activates. If any issues are detected, refer to the vehicle's manual or consult a professional for repairs.
