- 98 ford explorer
I have a 98 ford explorer XLT, it's stuck in 4wd auto with the dash selector on 2wd, and no 4wd light on the dash. so in neutral feet on brake selecting from 2wd to 4wd auto there is no click and cant hear it switch in the tranfer case but the 4wd auto light cames on. selecting from 4wd auto to 4wd low i hear the click and the shift in the tranfer case, dash 4wd low comes on. When reversing going from 4wd low to 4wd auto hear the click and the transfer case switching and light goes to 4wd auto. selecting 4wd auto to 2wd no click heard or switching of the transfer case and 4wd auto light goes out but is still in 4wd auto.
Tried putting vehicle on jack stands to make sure it was in 4wd or 2wd vehicle is in 4wd auto. checked all fuses.
Removed transfer case motor and left electrical connector in. Tried to shift as above in the first paragraph. Shift motor does not rotate going from 2wd to 4wd auto but rotates going from 4wd atuo to 4wd low.
Any suggestions or other testing i can do or does this mean my transfer case shift motor is bad?
