I've got a client that bought a used 4x4 module from me but even with this new, replacement module, transfer case in his truck does not work.
Here's the short version - he bought the truck with 4x4 not working already, took it to reputable electrician who went through the entire 4X4 and transmission wiring including plugs to make sure power and ground are all where they're suppose to be, checked all fuses and sensors. After that he came to a conclusion that the 4x4 module is dead. After installing a replacement module the situation did not change and 4X4 is well, still dead. Electrician says that there are five live wires going to the module and two ground wires - all five have 12V, ground is OK, fuses are good.
Computer hooked up to the OBD port can't find the 4X4CM like it's not there. Is it another dead module?
Is it something else?
Instrument cluster has been replaced at one point - part numbers did not match the original but everything on the cluster works... could that be the problem? could there be wires that go through the cluster that are mismatched?
I'm at a loss here - I though it would be as simple as replacing the module.
Help!
