Hi,
I am new here. I have a 2001 Ranger Edge with Auto 5 speed. I pulled the radio and now I cannot get it to go into 4WD. I do not know if this is related but when I pulled the radio I disconnected the 4WD switch and fog light switch. Now there are no lights for the 4WD that light up in the dash when the switch is turned. Also when I start the truck no 4WD lights up in the dash either. Anyone know how to check if it is the switch, 4x4CM or wiring? It will not go into 4WD at all nor will any 4WD lights turn on in the dash ever. I checked for power at the switch and there is only current at the far side (left) of the switch/wiring harness when the lights are turned on. I am assuming this is the power for the lights. Fuses are good.
There are 4 wires at the switch. Far left I believe is lights. Far right is ground (Black but not grounded)? Should I have current at the 4WD plug/ switch with the engine running and at what wires? Everything else is fine. There is current/power at the fog lights connection and they come on. The new 6 CD radio works great. Any help is really appreciated.
