According to the owner's manual for your 2017 Chevrolet Trax, you do not need to pull any fuses while dolly towing the vehicle. For front wheel drive models (FWD), the dolly towing procedure is listed as follows:

1. Put the front wheels on a dolly.
2. Move the shift lever to P (Park).
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Clamp the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a clamping device designed for towing.
5. Turn the vehicle off.
6. Secure the vehicle to the dolly.
7. Release the parking brake.

As long as your 2017 Chevrolet Trax is a front wheel drive and does not have wheels larger than 16" then you can use the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Self-Steering Wheels and Electric Brakes part # RM-2000-1 which is an excellent option with pretty much everything you need to hit the road besides a trailer connector, part # PK12706. It has self-steering wheels for increased maneuverability, brake for safety, and all of the required lighting.
