flat towing a 2018 canyon

It says to flat tow my Canyon I need to pull the neg. cable from the battery. Not sure why this needs to be done? can I just pull a fuse ?
  • The newer Colorado/Canyon series has electric power steering that stays connected until power disconnected from battery. GM claims damage will occur to the steering otherwise. Great threads on this subject on the IRV2 website.
  • I would follow the manufacturers instructions. You might screw something important up if you don't. If you really want to know why call the manufacturer and they will tell you.
  • I don’t know about just pulling a fuse, but don’t they make a switch that can be attached at the battery to accomplish the same as disconnecting it.
