Electrical engagement via dash mounted
switch. When tryingg to engage, switch in
any 4wd position will cause indicator
lights to flash, return to 2wd and throw a
"fix 4wd" code. Code translates to "replace
front differential actuator." So I had
mechanic replace it. Worked for a little
while and no back to working part time.
First time it failed, took it back to
mechanic in the morning. Sat outside his
shop until after lunch, and he could not
get it NOT to work. Now it fails
intermittently. Usually if is driven a bit
it will start working again. Thinking it
needs to be warmed up a bit to work.. Maybe
ice in front differential preventing it
from engaging? Anyone have similar
experiences? Appears all other functions of
4wd mechanism working OK
