Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The Tow/Haul select switch is a momentary contact switch located on the end of the selector lever. Pressing the Tow/Haul switch will engage or disengage the Tow/Haul function of the transmission. When the Tow/Haul is engaged, the Tow/Haul icon illuminates on the IPC. Each time the ignition switch is cycled, the PCM/ TCM disengages the Tow/Haul operation regardless of the switch position the last time the engine was running.
