2001.
why run 3 post for one truck and one problem.
NO enigine or transfer case type told , part time or AWD.
2001 is the magic year with first dash, 4wd buttons not mech shifted. electric motor shift.
do not shift on dry pavement with Part time 4wd, or blow the fuse.
or far far worse.
just post and run one, post. and add to the 1 with comments only.
or edit the post as INFO changes.
2001 not 201 year. Troy year LOL.
this question is super simple, the FSM cover that path 100%
in the schematic, not told yet what transfer case is there
K2500 truck (using old style name,) K for 4X2 or AWD.
4X2 is parttime
here is the line up. of xfr cases
the cars RPO list tells the NPx code, for a fact and is first.step
NV261 is part time 4wd so is 263
so the NP8 i full time 4wd. only with shift motor.
key on, and both fuses are hot on both ends of fuse below.
if dead both sides the problem is with the main power feed.
just test key on and end the guessing?
there are 5 of them and they are not the same.
sorry
ONLY
line 1, NP8 4WD fuse and ATC fuse goes to transfer case
Im sure its NP8 with electric shift motor.
no idea me what ARC is???
there are other fuses, IGN but that kills the engine.
not told you is engine running OKAY>????
the fuse named ATC 20 amp is hot all the time.
is battery + all the time.
and FUSE 4WD 15amps this is ignition switch on RUN power feed.
THE RUN WIRE goes directly to the Ignition switch pin RUN.
that wire is ORANGE.
my guess is ATC fuse FUSE is dead? if dead and fuse good
the ATC bus bar is same as horn if that is dead many things are dead, Im reading the FSM schematic to you.
best when working on any car or truck
is test all things electric and make a list of all that fail.
even things that work like horn, or cab blower or HVAC.
this makes diagnosis way way more easy
the electrics form a tree with branches.
the cars battery must be kept charged.
and Part time 4wd is not for pavement lacking ICE
K2500 it is.
ATC is in under hood fuse box. PDC.
4wd is JB/ cab and under hood, fuses are confusing here
I guess its 1500 to 3500 not the same.
ARC is not such thing in the FSM or the free users guide
is this a diesel? the are unique.> but no engine told
or VIN
first under hood, ATC hot all the time.
next up is IP left drive, cover off
called fuse block.
no ARC fuse found, deep searched.
must be a typo just like 201 year
