Ok so i have been working on this thing for a while now tinkering with it trying to get it going. it has the overhead console 4x4 switch.
so here is the issue i have taken the electric motor off of the transfer case and it is working i hard wired it up to the battery and it will roll it all the way one way. you reverse polarity and it will take it all the way back the other direction.
at this point i know the electric motor is good.
I took off the overhead console to check the switches and they are both in good operation. i even cleaned the little computer board that they are on.
so what it is doing when you hit the button to engage it into four wheel drive you can hear clicking under the passenger side of the dash. i pulled that little computer looking thing out from underneath the dash and i found no problems with it. also kind of curious if anyone knows what that box under the dash is?
i can manually lock it into four wheel drive and it works but not when i push the button i have checked all the fuses under the steering wheel on the dash and they are all good. nothing on that fuse panel info sticker says anything about four wheel drive. anyway i am up for any kind of ideas of how to get this thing going.
