SWITCH-TOW/HAUL OVERDRIVE
DESCRIPTION
The tow/haul overdrive OFF (control) switch is located
in the shift lever arm. The switch is a momentary con-
tact device that signals the PCM to toggle current sta-
tus of the overdrive function.
OPERATION
At key-on, overdrive operation is allowed. Pressing the switch once causes the tow/haul overdrive OFF mode to be
entered and the Tow/Haul lamp to be illuminated. Pressing the switch a second time causes normal overdrive oper-
ation to be restored and the tow/haul lamp to be turned off. The tow/haul overdrive OFF mode defaults to ON after
the ignition switch is cycled OFF and ON. The normal position for the control switch is the ON position. The switch
must be in this position to energize the solenoid and allow a 3-4 upshift. The control switch indicator light illuminates
only when the tow/haul overdrive switch is turned to the OFF position, or when illuminated by the transmission
control module.
REMOVAL
1. Using a plastic trim tool, remove the tow/haul over-
drive off switch retainer (2) from the shift lever (1).
