I did just go through the manual and its very unclear ( to me anyway)
But what's the process for engaging 4WD?
I got stuck in sand yesterday on a job site and only having -900 miles on the truck have never used the 4WD. I did get it into 4H and got out easy.
Question is there's only one locking hub on drivers side so I jumped out, locked the hub and scrolled through the drive modes until 4H displayed. I didn't realize the 4H selector was a push button,,,,duh
I'm really OCD about new stuff so wanna make sure I didn't screw something up. I read where you should go in reverse after being in 4x4 to make sure its not locked. I didn't do that. That's why I like having a real owners manual not having it downloaded.
Also can someone explain what these vents and what looks like a speaker are? I searched the online manual and found nothing . And the " vent on the left with what seems to be a button under it. Man I miss a simple truck...Yes I'm an old man
You only need to get out and physically lock the hub if it has some malfunction and isn't locking while in "Auto" position. So under normal conditions, you leave the hub in Auto and simply select 4wd in the cab.
You didn't hurt anything by not going in reverse. I could be wrong, but going in reverse would be something you would try if 4wd was not disengaging.
The small grills in the overhead are where the interior motion sensors are located. Part of the security system. I don't know what the one is at the base of the mirror.
If your truck was stuck in 4H it would have been abundantly clear after you made your first right hand turn in the parking lot or at an intersection. If there is no binding/hopping/etc then you are fine.
