Question to those towing an Equinox
I am about to start towing a 2011 Equinox. The manual says that it IS towable.
The manual says to run the Equinox engine for 5 minutes at the beginning and for 5 minutes at the end of each day and to run it at fuel stops.
The manual further states to:
1) Hook up to the RV
2) Turn the key to On/Run
3) Sift the transmission to Neutral
4) Turn the key to Accessory
5) Turn off all of the accessories
6) Pull fuse 32.
In the steps above, the manual implies that the engine is not running when performing steps 1, 2, 3.
IS THAT CORRECT?
The manual says at the end of the tow, to:
1) Set the brake
2) Shift to Park
3) Turn the key to Off
4) Reinstall Fuse 32
5) Start the engine and let it idle for 3 minutes before driving the car.
Is that what you do?
Thanks in advance. I just want to make sure that I've got this right.
