I have a question.... My 4x4 went out completely... I used it the other day, to flex it up on some sandbags on the curb so I could pressure wash from underneath, and it worked fine... I went to use it tonight, and it wouldnt go in to 4H or 4L. It did this once before too, but was fixed in 5 minutes,... I tried for 45 minutes to get it working, and nothing.

Do the lites come on on the dash when you first start it? If yes then probably the shift motor, maybe it came unplugged. If there is no 4 hi/4 low lites on the dash, its probably the 4x4cm. That was my problem, I replaced the 4x4cm and all is working as it should. Seems like the cm goes out just like that with no warning.

Its behind the passanger side kick panel. I would check all the connections first before you buy a new one. I got mine from here. You have to call them with your VIN and yr. I believe I paid 135.00
