[QUOTE="'XXV LT, post: 27460, member: 10321"] Thanks. I appreciate the efforts on this. More relevant info in the [U]Towing the Vehicle[/U] section in the OM. It looks like neutral is not possible on a non-running vehicle. Yikes! Caution The vehicle may be equipped with an Electric Parking Brake (EPB) and/or an electronic shifter. In the event of a loss of 12-volt battery power, the EPB cannot be released, and the vehicle cannot be shifted to N (Neutral). Tire skates or dollies must be used under the non-rolling tires to prevent damage while loading/ unloading the vehicle. Dragging the vehicle will cause damage not covered by the vehicle warranty. •If the 12-volt battery is dead and/or the engine will not start, the vehicle will not move. See Jump Starting - North America 3 283 and if the jump start is successful, retry the “Car Wash Mode” procedure. If unsuccessful, the vehicle will not move. Tire skates or dollies must be used under the non-rolling tires to prevent vehicle damage. [/QUOTE]
