I'm Awesome
Hello fellas,
I'd like to start by saying that I am happy to have found this forum. There is tons of great information and everyone has been super helpful.
I am hoping to get some help on a 4x4 issue I just started having. We have a huge amount of snow outside and it is dangerous to drive without it, so any help is much appreciated.
Vehicle
- 1995 K2500 4x4
- L56 396 cu in Detroit Diesel
- light body frame (14bolt sf rear, 6 bolt lugs, non-HD)
- silverado trim
- 4L80e with floor shift transfer case
Symptoms
- when I shift to 4H, light on floor does not engage and front wheels do not engage
- same symptom for 4L
- when I put the vehicle in 4L, I hear the transfer case engage and the gearing changes when moving
- when I put the vehicle in 4H, I hear the transfer case engaging
- in 2H, the front drive shaft moves freely
- in 4H, the front drive shaft does NOT move freely, it is locked to the transfer case
I don't know much about 4x4 and how it engages inside the front dif. My guess is whatever signal the t-case sends isn't being received in the front, or the system responsible for engaging it is broken
Please help! I really appreciate it. If more details are needed, please ask
Thank you
