    4WD Issues

    4WD Issues

    I've only engaged on dry pavement for about a car length while backing a trailer in my gravel driveway. I am engaging properly. It's acting as though there isn't any power. The light on the dash doesn't come on when I turn the switch. I've tried searching, but I can't find anything similar...

    Power Door Locks

    The other door locks work fine. Its just the drivers side. This only happens intermittenly. I had the door panel off and was looking around in there. I didn't notice any broken linkages, or springs. In fact I didn't see any springs.

    Hey guys, my power door lock on the drivers side door will stick sometimes. If I hit the remote to unlock the door the knob will not come up and the key will not unlock it either. I have to hit the unlock button a couple of times before it unlocks. If it still won't unlock I have to open the...
