Title should read gremlin, I can't spell.
My 4wd seems to acting funny. I have 96 Explorer sport 4wd. I have the 2wd, 4wd auto, 4wd low option.
I go to put it into 4wd auto because of slick roads and nothing happens. I come to a stoplight and my 4wd light finally comes on.
When I take off from the stoplight, I imediately feel the front wheels are engaged. It's like I have 4wd hi instead of 4wd auto. I continue to play with it all the way home and even went on a dirt road to test the 4wd low and it works correctly.
So something is stuck and is keeping the front wheels engaged when the switch is in 4wd auto even while the back wheels are not slipping.
I actually have always wanted to turn the 4wd auto into 4wd hi and it seems my truck gremlins have finally listend without me doing a thing.
My question is, should I be worried or just enjoy my 4wd hi for the time being. Or is something being damaged?????????????????
