Tow Haul issue

[ehames005]

I just bought a 01 GMC Yukon. I brought it home and the next day when I start it the tow/haul light was on. I pressed the button and nothing, after a few minutes it shut off by itself. I'm pretty sure I have a short in the wiring. My question is, is there any way to completely disable the tow/haul function? I do not tow any thing as of this time and it is just annoying.

You need to get into your steering column and look for damaged wires!

Just like the others said, there's a pair of wires going to that switch that always break or short together. If you just tape up the ends you'll disable it. They get caught in the shifter.
