Not if it is a classic 1999 siverado.
it does only when in drive with the tow/haul button off
Press the tow/haul button at the end of the shifter. 2000 Chevy Silverado LT Ext Cab 4 dr 5.3L 4x4 Z71
Search Chevy truck forums. Appears the first suggestion it to check all your fuses. If your lucky you might find one the is blown and could be related - this is the easiest thing to do.... If not fuse related then you need to remove the platic steering column cover. Under there at the end of the shift lever you will find two small wires that are for the tow haul button. These wires get brittle and break over time from shift level movement it seems. You will have to repair the broken wire and you should be good to go!
7200 pounds. With the tow/haul button on!
An educated guess would be because the switch has failed. That is the most common reason why that feature would be inopreative.
haul, drag
Hi... Try pulling the stick down to 1st (with foot on brake and tow haul button depressed...don't let it go yet) then move the stick up into 2nd and then to Drive...does it work now??? seems to be a loose connection in the wiring at the base steering column If you have a rubber boot around the gear shift...take a peek inside, you may be able to get to the wires,,,a contact spray may work. good luck
You can look in your cars manual to see what the tow rating is for your specific vehicle. You can find out what U-haul's standards are for towing capacities on U-haul's website or call your local U-haul to ask.
U-Haul does not permit their trucks to be taken into Mexico, so no.
Special tow trucks are called in to haul larger vehicles.
The wire in the steering column has to much strain on it and it snaped. Easy fix if you extra wire laying around. Just rip the steering column apart
