Pull onto the Flatbed Truck From
Front (Without Tow Eye)CAUTION: To avoid damage, only pull the vehicle
onto a flatbed truck using a properly-installed tow
eye. Using the chassis, frame, or suspension
components to pull the vehicle can result in
damage.
WARNING: If the vehicle is pulled onto the flatbed
truck using this method, all suspension fasteners
should be checked for proper torque and all
components should be visually inspected for
damage prior to driving the vehicle again. If a
fastener is loose, or if any damage is found, the
affected component(s) should be replaced.
It is strongly recommended that you connect the winch
to your vehicle

This may be caused by a loose building wiring connection to the Wall Connector and can be fixed quickly by an
electrician.
What to do:
Contact an electrician to inspect the building wiring connection to the Wall Connector. They should make sure that
all wires are properly connected and torqued according to the installation guide for the Wall Connector.
