Look at the below photo. Coming out of the back of the shift motor harness plug, there is a single brown wire that runs just in front of the fill plug and terminates in the rear of the t-case rear driveshaft output. I've looked at both the shift motor rebuild writeups in the tech section but haven't seen any reference to this wire. I believe it to be part of the clutch sensing circuitry but I can't be sure.
BW 1354-22 tcase attached to a manual transmission.
I'm trying to rebuild my motor since I'm getting the 6-flash error. 4WD was working two weeks ago without issue. I suspect it may be that little plastic bushing inside the ring gear which serves as a limit stop. I want to remove the motor and give it a good service but I don't want to yank out this brown wire until I know what it is.
Thanks!
