Tow Mode Button Missing, but full tow package is there otherwise

Recommended Posts

So I searched the forums and didn't really find my situation, plus the threads related to this, were so old I didn't want to necro them. I bought a 2013 3500 HD a couple months ago and it has ALL the options that the tow package includes (wiring harness under the dash, class IV hitch, front tow hooks, extending side mirrors, 7pin connector, etc) but, I don't have a Tow Mode button. I haven't taken apart the dash yet to see if there is a harness, which I will do tomorrow. I have the window sticker / build sheet and it includes the full tow package (and the VIN matches the vehicle). I do plan to tow with this van, and I know tow mode isn't required per-se, but I figured it would be useful and really should be there. Thoughts?

V6 or V8?  Only the V8 has the button.  The V8 is a part from the Titan that has a tow mode.  The V6 is a part from the Frontier that does not.

I should have mentioned it’s the v8. (I didn’t know the 3500 came in a v6).

I took the dash apart and I think I found the tow mode button connector, it was just taped to a wire harness. I searched for the connector on google and it appears to be the correct one. This is what I found. I am going to find a button and see if it works. It appears, with all the other options installed, that was never installed from the factory…
