tow haul

question. just got my truck a month a go 2014 tundra 4.6 sr5. with the 7 pin and look like it pre wire for break control so i spoke to the salemen and he said the previous owner removed the tow.haul.botton. is they a way to check because that make no sense to me to remove it. thanks

 

Can you post a picture of your dash where the tow/haul button normally would be?

 

I dont think the sr's have tow haul mode. I was in my buddy's 2017 & he didnt have one

 

My guess is that if it doesn't have the tow package it didn't come with the tow/haul button. Only a guess though!

You could pop the blank out and see if there is a plug right behind it to make sure.
EDIT: @bobeast brought up a good point, the presence of the connector may not mean anything.

Hopefully someone will chime in with some expertise.

 

@boloson thank just checking before i.pull my travel trailer

 

Does your tundra have a transmission fluid temperature gage? If not, your dealer is FOS and yours does not have the heavy duty tow package (which would explain the missing Tow/Haul switch). I wouldn't rely too heavily on whether there is a connector for the switch behind the blank. Toyota likes to use the same harness across trim levels, so a connector there may not tell you what you think it does.

 

I am guessing that your truck does not have the Tow Pkg and someone installed the 7 pin plug just to tow a larger trailer at the time ? Just a guess.

 

I don't believe any of the 3rd Gens have trans temp gauges. Something they eliminated.

 

Second gen, best gen!

thanks every who took some time out your day to anwser my question.

 

Those cheap bas....umm I mean astute bean counters.

 

I just bought a used 2016 SR5, it has a factory tow hitch but no tow/haul mode button. Is this a normal thing for them not to have a tow/haul button?

 

For newer models, I think the tow package is standard in 5.7 and not even available for 4.6.

 

Bench seats have tow/haul ass button on the column shifter. Be sure to check there.

 

Does this go to the tow haul button?
