PTO Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The PTO Switch is mounted in the center of the Instrument Panel. The PTO Switch has three positions: OFF, ON and SET. When the PTO switch is in ON voltage will be present on the PTO On Switch Signal circuit at the relay and the PCM. When the switch is held to the SET position, voltage will be present on the PTO Engage Signal circuit at the PCM. The PTO indicator light is integral with the switch and will illuminate when the switch is turned ON. The presence of the indicator being on does not mean that the PTO Solenoid is engaged. The Cruise Control Multi-Function Switch may be used in conjunction with the PTO Switch. Illumination of the switch is provided through the dimming circuit and controlled in part by internal switch logic.
