What is the condition that disallows starting towing activities?

The condition that disallows starting towing activities is indicated by the TOW STATUS MODE indicator showing a Yellow or Red light. A Yellow light typically signals a caution or warning, suggesting that there may be conditions present that require attention before towing can begin. A Red light generally indicates a critical issue or failure in the towing system that must be resolved before it is safe to proceed.

In operational contexts, the lights on the TOW STATUS MODE indicator serve as critical signals for the personnel involved in towing activities. The indicators help ensure that safety protocols are adhered to, preventing potential hazards that could arise from improper towing conditions. Only when the status is confirmed as safe—often indicated by a Green light—can towing operations commence, thus highlighting the importance of proper interpretation of these signals.
