Those instructions crack me up. If I could get the damn thing into 4X4 HIGH, I wouldn't be reading the manual on the transfer case motor in the first place. Do they specify how this is done manually? I ask, because mine failed - and I'm getting ready to replace it this week.

I tested my new transfer case motor before I installed it - the light popped on. So... 15 minutes later, Stinky's in 4X4 in the driveway. Don't buy a Dorman part - get reman or OEM. I bought mine at the shamrock auto parts store. I'm not putting anything expensive or shiny under there - they started salting our roads in the winter a few years back.

I did electrical tests before I called mine dead. There is supposed to be a winding for forward and one for reverse (in/out of 4X4), and my forward winding read open. The transfer case motor will make the light on the dash not work and it will throw a code. The ESOF hub locks give no indication when they fail... other than slip and slide.
