Hi guys, 91 Explorer...
My 4wd almost never engages when I push the button. When I do, I hear a click-click-click-click and the lights dim slightly, but that's all that happens.
About every 20th time I press the 4wd button, it will engage and stay in 4wd.
Same symptom when I press the low range button.
When I press low range after successfully engaging 4wd, low range will start blinking about once a second. Sometimes pressing low range will kick it back out of 4wd.
I've read some threads elsewhere about 4wd issues, but those had to do with the 4wd light blinking -- mine never does that, it either refuses to go into 4wd or it does and stays on solid, but low range doesn't seem to want to work.
Where do I start troubleshooting?
