My 2005 Diesel Excurision is stuck in 4 low. I have tried suggestions in manual but it did not work. Suggestions?????

 

I used my 4 low yesterday and it didn't want to switch out also. what I ended up doing was unlocking the hubs and backing up then going forward on loose gravel, spinning the rear tires. it took about 3 cycles before it switched back to 2 hi.

I was having a hard time getting my 2005 diesel out of low the last time we were on the beach in North Carolina and figured out you have to make sure you hold the brake down for a little and give it a chance also was putting it in neutral. That worked for me good luck

 

Thanks for your help. I have tried the brake/neutral with no help. We also do not have manual hubs to unlock

 

Have you put it in park or neutral with it running ans switching it out of low?

I couldn't get my X into low when I bought it and remembered the neutral thing from my other 4x4. Goes in and out just fine.

If you can not get it to disengage you can pull the motor/solenoid on the transfer case and see if it works when you change the switch position.

 

If you are close to home, jack it up and free the wheels from binding.

 

I too need to use Neutral to get in and out of 4low. Sometimes when real cold I have to pull forward 20 feet or so then back up the same. I figured it was a summer fix. For now I seldom need 4low.

 

How the heck do you not have manual hubs to unlock? Did I miss something about the later Ex's?
