The systems and methods provided herein are directed to enabling a vehicle to enter into and/or exit from a transport mode using a backup fuse. The vehicle may enter into the transport mode from a normal mode when an ignition of the vehicle transitions from off to on if the backup fuse has been removed and the vehicle has been placed in park or neutral. The transport mode may, in part, reduce electrical loads and power as well as limit other components of the vehicle during shipping. The dealer, or other party, may remove the transport mode when the vehicle arrives and is ready to be sold. The vehicle may exit the transport mode when the backup fuse has been re-installed and the fuel cap or lid has been removed or opened, thus returning the vehicle to the normal mode.
