[QUOTE="greenmountain1132, post: 22720, member: 8451"] We have a 2024 Equinox AWD that we are going to flat tow. I got the updated procedure from the dealer we got it from, that includes to disconnect negative battery lead. But the one question I cannot get answered is what position must the AWD/2WD switch be in when getting it ready to tow? I sure don't want to find out that I had it in the wrong one after I leave a trail of drivetrain parts going down the road! Second question is, GM wants the negative disconnected but as many have stated there will still be a need for power to the supplementary braking system as well as the battery tender. So if a disconnect is put into the negative line from the battery to the car, and the power for the brake and tender is drawn from the battery side of the disconnect, will that work, satisfying GM's requirement for disconnecting the negative line as well as providing power to the brake and tender? Thank you! [/QUOTE]
