Center (EVIC)" in Section 4 of this manual.
Shifter T-Handle
4WD LOW to 4WD HI
With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to
5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON position or
engine running, shift the transmission into NEU-
TRAL, and raise the transfer case T-handle. The
"4WD LOW" indicator light in the instrument
cluster, will flash and go out when the shift is
complete. Release the T-handle.
NOTE:
• If shift conditions/interlocks are not met,
or a transfer case motor temperature pro-
tection condition exists, a "CHECK SHIFT
PROCEDURES" message will flash from
the EVIC (Electronic Vehicle Information
Center). Refer to "Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC)" in Section 4 of this
manual.
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is pos-
sible with the vehicle completely stopped,
however difficulty may occur due to the
mating clutch teeth not being properly
aligned. Several attempts may be re-
quired for clutch teeth alignment and shift
completion to occur. The preferred
method is with the vehicle rolling 0 to
3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is
moving faster than 3 mph (5 km/h), the
transfer case will not allow the shift.
NEUTRAL (N) Shift Procedure
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position,
engine off.
2. Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
3. Place transmission into NEUTRAL.
4. Hold down the NEUTRAL (N) "pin" switch
(with a pen, etc.) for four seconds until the LED
lamp by the switch starts to blink indicating
shift in progress. The lamp will stop blinking
(stay on solid) when the NEUTRAL (N) shift is
complete. A "4WD SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL"
message will display on the EVIC (Electronic
Vehicle Information Center). Refer to "Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)" in
Section 4 of this manual.
