Either the Transfer Case Encoder Motor or the
Sensor inside the motor case

There is video you can watch on that

IT IS NOT GOING INTO NEUTRAL. IT HAS LOST THE DIRECT DRIVE CLUTCH PACK INTERNALLY. SOUNDS LIKE IT IS HIGH MILEAGE. IF SO AND YOU CHANGE THE FLUID IT CLEANS UP ALL THE VARNISH IN THE TRANNY AND THE END RESULT IS TRANNY MALFUNCTIONS DEPENDING ON WHAT KIND OF CARE IT HAS HAD IN THE PAST.

SOURCE: 94 v6 camaro automatic.. no reverse or neutral.

Sounds like you may have burned out the reverse clutch pack inside the transmission by going from drive to reverse. I would recommend seeing a transmission shop for verification. Hope this helps

8/19/2009 I had this problem and it cost me 2700.00 to repair the truck. The problem is the "encoder Modual" that controls the 2/4 system. Unfortunately I did not know and my rear end needed to be repaired. The encoder cost about 388.00 at the dealer, good luck

My 2007 chevy tahoe has been having this problem where it vibrates while driving on the highway, its so bad that you need to pull over and after you pull over for a few minutes and then drive again it...

You need to have the front end and frame inspected for worn damaged parts, do not keep driving this vehicle or a full on failure will occur with the resulting loss of control and possible crash.

I have an 04 chevy 1500 the four wheel drive is acting up the auto 4wd work fine. When I put it in 4 hi or 4 low it does not work? What the hell!

This truck has been known for the 4wd switch to go bad and also the electric motor on the transfercase to go bad. Sometimes you can just unhook the battery for a few minutes and the computer will reset the system and it will work fine. Try this first.

Wont shift out of 4lo to any other 4hi or 2hi what can i do

Shot in the dark but I have done this before! Back up at least 50 yards in reverse with the selector set to 4wd Lo come to a stop, put your transmission in neutral, shift the 4wd selector to 4wd hi wait for a few seconds, shift it to 2wd hi wait a few seconds then put your tranny back into drive and see if that takes it out of 4wd. Good luck

Switching back 4WD to 2WD - 1998 Jeep Cherokee 4L Limited Petrol

With any 4WD like this, always move a few feet in the opposite direction when disengaging. If you were moving fwd in 4wd, switch to 2wd, back up a few feet, then go fwd.
