Why won't my 4wd work?
Q- For over a year now my 4 wheel drive will not work. The drive motor and actuator on that motor have been disassembled and reassembled and all is in order, clean and greased. With direct battery current it operates properly. All fuses are okay and are not blown, nor have they ever been. The dash switch has been replaced with new factory replacement, thinking that was the problem. What am I missing?
A- My best guess is that the problem is a faulty 4WD control module. This controls power to the 4WD switch on the transmission.
It needs to be seen by a professional simply due to the fact that 4wd in all vehicles differ. What may be the cause for one may not be the cause for another. While most people associate 4WD with off road driving, it is also important in aiding in stabilization and control of the vehicle in inclement weather. A professional technician will perform an inspection of the whole system and assure that your vehicle is in peak running condition and that your safety is not compromised.
