How to unlock steering wheel with push button start?

[767jetlag]

I just purchased a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk to flat tow. It has a key fob and pushbutton start. With a keyless system, does anyone know how to unlock the steering wheel for flat towing? Does it even need to be unlocked after you complete the steps to setup the transmission for flat towing? Thanks in advance!

Have the same car. There isn't a steering wheel lock. The wheels follow the MH when in park ( after securing it in neutral ) and key completely off. Thus - no need to have the power on draining your battery unlike some of the other popular toads.

Securing it in neutral is in the manual. It's very simple to understand and easy to do.

Thanks everyone - good (and helpful) info. - much appreciated!
I'm just getting started with this RV life. Just about everything is new to me - looking forward to a great summer!

There hasn't been a lock on a Jeep since 2009.

Hey jetlag, try following the owners manual for setup and then try to turn the wheel. I bet docj is correct and that there is no lock. A corolla we rend a while ago had the pb start and younever tool the key out of your pocket.

Why are you assuming the car has a steering wheel lock? Not all cars have them; they are not required by law. Page 124 of your owner's manual doesn't discuss anything other than how to put the transfer case into neutral. Presumably that's all you have to worry about.

Ok, well that's the first place I looked! Thanks anyway.

Should be in the owners manual.
