4 Low not working
4 hi works great, clicks right in. But when i hit 4 low its not engage and im not hearing the relay click in the dash. So is there a common problem with this?
Im assuming either the 4 low button or the relay is bad.

not sure as mine is older .. non-electric ..
did you try pulling the connector off the switch and jumping the terminals to determine that it is not the switch ..
