SOURCE: 88 Suzuki samurai 4x4 will not engage.

The shifter sheet is worn out or not even there (its rubber) from multiple uses. It eventually decades.

Tons of Samurai enthusiast retailers carry them. Lowrangeoffroad, Petroworks, Trail Tough, and more.

They also carry the one for the tranny shifter.

SOURCE: 05 Durango transfer case will not engage, stuck in neutral

I had this happen to me today and found that it was a simple linkage problem.

If the 4WD-Neutral-2WD stick on the floor console moves freely try crawling under the vehical and make sure that the shift linkage is attached to the transmission. On mine I found a cotter pin had broken and the shift lever was not staying connected.

Make sure the shifter on the steering colum is in neutral and engine off when making these repairs.

Good luck

SOURCE: stuck in 4 wheel drive and wont come out.

hey there i cant tell you what you are missing but i can tell you how to disengage the front wheels . ok you have a vacum line that runs right under the battery and a line that comes up from the front diff. to the same place ( you may have to remove batt and batt tray to get full access to this) un bolt it and temporaly put batt and batt tray back in start it up and decompress this and see if it comes out .... you should here clunking noise if it goes back in ... if thats the case just pull that big vaccum line off .... to test get all four tires off the ground and have some one put it in drive but dont hit the gas it should turn on its own ...if that dont work check the cable that runs down to the differental

SOURCE: Four wheel drive wont engage. Tranfer case is

Sounds like you either have a vaccum leak or your 4 wheel drive actuator is not working to engage the front differential.On my 98 ram there is a black and red plastic lines that are used for the vaccum lines. They are underneath and go from the transfer case to the front axle, check to see if one or both might be cracked or broke completely.If the lines are good then it could be your actuator on the front axle. A new one is about $93 at advance auto parts and not very hard to replace

My 2004 GMC Envoy SLT will go into four low but not for higher automatic four wheel drive and we'll also go into two wheel drive what's the problem

There are a few potential issues that could be causing your 2004 GMC Envoy SLT to go into 4-low but not 4-high or 2-wheel drive. Some possible causes include:
  1. Transfer case issues: The transfer case is responsible for controlling the engagement of the different drive modes. If the transfer case is damaged or malfunctioning, it may not be able to engage 4-high or 2-wheel drive.
  2. Shift motor issues: The shift motor is responsible for controlling the engagement of the transfer case. If the shift motor is damaged or malfunctioning, it may not be able to engage 4-high or 2-wheel drive.
  3. Vacuum issues: The vacuum system is responsible for controlling the engagement of the transfer case. If there is a problem with the vacuum system, it may not be able to engage 4-high or 2-wheel drive.
  4. Wiring issues: The wiring that controls the transfer case and shift motor can become damaged or corroded over time. This can cause the transfer case to not engage 4-high or 2-wheel drive.
  5. Control module issues: The control module that controls the transfer case and shift motor can fail. This can cause the transfer case to not engage 4-high or 2-wheel drive.
It's best to diagnose the issue by a professional mechanic, who can perform a proper diagnosis and repair the issue. They will be able to determine the specific cause of the problem and recommend the appropriate repairs.

My 2009 mahindra pik up wont go into low range 4wd

Try replacing the motor on the back of the transfer case that engages high/low, which should fix the issue.

The four wheel drive is engaging itself. The vehicle is stuck in four wheel high and will not change with switch on dash

The actuator on the transmission is stuck and will need to be replaced. This is a very common problem.

When put into 4 wheel drive, my 1998 ford 150's indicator lights come on, but the 4 wheel drive will not engage

sounds like the drive motor on the transfer case is stuck in one position. On the the transfer case there is a small motor that looks like a window motor, you could try getting the indicator on, and lightly tapping the motor to see if the armature is stuck.

Transfer case wont engage

shift into 4wd and move truck a couple of feet.
if light is still off, park truck block the wheels set the park brake jack right front wheel and try to hand spin the wheel if wheel doesn't turn 4x4 is functioning properly but there is a wiring problem use an ohmmeter to check the 4x4 switch wiring fuse and bulb
if wheel turns freely the front axle or transfer case is not engaged
attempt to hand spin the front driveshft if the driveshaft will spin the transfer case is not engaged check the transfer case shift linkage, problem is in linkage or transfer case internals
if the driveshaft will not spin the transfer case is engaged properly
with trnsmission in neutral or park start engine measure vacuum on the two vac lines at front axle shift motor . one line should have approx 20" vacuum. other line should have none
if no vacuum measured look for vac leak or bad vac switch
if both lines have vac look for a bad vac swithc or ruptured cad actuator diaphragm
if one line has 20" +- VAC
move transfer case lever to 2wd measure vac again lines should have swapped vac signals
if no vac switch bad or 4wd shift likage needs adjusting
if yes vac motor bad or stuck or shift fork stuck
remove vac shift motor from the axle attach vac lines to shift motor engage disengage 4wd
does shift motor plunger move at least 1/2 inch
no shift motor bad
yes check axle shift fork and vac motor for binging

4 wheel drive engages itself after rain or snow

I had that problem last year. Dodge fixed it for $500.00 it was the "Transfer Case Motor". Rock Auto Online http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php has them for $140.00. 3 bolts, two plugs, 15mins. and your done. Wish I had known it would have saved me $360.00.
