4 low not engaging
I have a 97 EB and when switching into 4 wheel drive ,everything seems to work fine except for 4 low. It does not engage at all. Does anyone know how to determine if it is the switch causing the problem or if it is the actual motor on the transfer case?

Ok, I was just checking, I know it took me reading the manual to figure that out on mine. I would have to agree that maybe it is the motor in the transfer case, if all other positions work on the switch with no trouble, I doubt the switch is bad. I think I do remember a post about someone removing and cleaning the excess dilectric (sp) grease off of the switch and that helping it to work.

Is the 4 Low light on
The motor sends a feedback code when the motor makes 4low which turns the light on. If you do not have this light then the motor is not making the move. You also should be able to hear the relay clicking under the dash or behind the drivers seat post. If you do not hear the relay click, then you should check the gem if you do hear the relay, and still get no light the motor. But if you get light but no 4low, then its internal.
