Abstract
A method for disabling the implement steering system of a towed implement includes monitoring the position of the implement while in transport and if the implement is outside a correctable position, automatically disabling the implement steering system. The method further includes monitoring the speed of the implement with the implement steering system disabled and if the speed remains below a threshold for a predefined period then enabling manual control of the implement steering system.
