Tow/Haul button doesn't work

Since I bought the truck the tow/haul button doesn't do anything when I push it. Is there a fuse or relay that I could check? Thanks.

It's a pretty common problem that the thin wire that runs through the shifter arm into the column breaks causing the tow haul button to stop working.

ok, thanks. I was hoping it wouldn't be something hard to disassemble. Dang. Thanks again!

It isn't super difficult to fix. Pull the tilt control off and take the column top and bottom apart.

I may get brave lol. I'm not very mechanically-inclined.
