service 4x4
 
Alright I searched and came up with nothing for sure, I am guessing (hoping) that my switch is starting to go bad. in 2wd everythings fine and dandy, once Im in 4hi for about a minute the service 4wd light comes on and I cant switch out of 4hi unless I turn the truck off and on again. I am ordering a new switch and hopefully thats it but Im wondering if the actuator is sticking and wont disengage unless power is taken away from it and then back again? Not sure. Thanks in advance for the help-Mike

Also everything seems to be working fine even while its stuck in 4hi, no grinding or binding that I can hear or feel other than normal stuff. I just dont want to take it to the dealer and get bent over.

Do you know any one with a 4x4 truck? If so see if you swap them out to see to see if that is your ploblem before you spend the cash on it.

Dont know anyone around here with the same model, I just moved up here in july

Good idea though

test drive one and take it home and swap them. :D

lol, another good idea! I doubt the salesman would go for that during his ride with me

Mail it to me and I can do it for you, the dealership around me lets you take the truck for a test drive, they did when I test drove my truck. had it for about hour and a half. :)

Cant really mail it since I need the 4wd with the foot of snow outside!

OOHH that sucks! It was worth a try... Try the dealership thing and see if thay would let you take it home to show the wife and get her thoughts. ;)
