I am currently having the problem of not hearing the motor actuator on transfer case making any noise when i push in the 4x4 button on isuzu trooper 3.0.i am getting no 4 wheel drive and the light on dash wont stay lit up solid it just keeps flashing.i tried checking the plug going to wires on it and cant find power in the plug.further more i cant get in close enough to see where the loom is going from that point so i cant trace it well enough.i am almost certain this is my problem as i have checked everything else i could reach but to be sure i would like to know just how to check that plug for power properly because it has 5 terminals in it and i think its only 2 of those terminals i need to check for power.the only thing is im not sure which 2 it is.this is on an isuzu trooper 3.0L diesel 2001 swb and i feel this should be much easier to fix than this but i am really struggling.can you please please help me with this Peter??please

SOURCE: 4x4 Problems

sorry lost here ,never seen one but if transmission shaft is turning to front diff then the problem is their,could be anyting from a sheared diff pinion to a broken planet wheel or possible evan a snapped half shaft or the spline on the end of the half shaft has worn and rounded off

SOURCE: 4x4 wont engage front wheels

check switch or sensor on transfer case

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

Cheak all wiring, one little **** in the wire will make a fuse blow. I had the same problem with my starter and i replaced the starter but it was still blowing the fuse, come to find out it wus a wire burnt into so cheak all wires carfully.

a couple questions is it the motor on the transfer case ( encoder motor ) or the motor on the front diff.? that you are having all the problems with.
