Trans is in limp mode because it thinks the front wheels aren't spinning with the rest of the wheels. Have the speed sensors replaced and reset the obd2 system.

Speed sensors will only disable the abs system not keep the transmission from shifting.

SOURCE: 1993 jeep grand cherokee laredo 4 wheel drive

I'm not absolutely sure on the tire size for the jeep itself, but I think they are 225/65/R15's. Not absolutely sure.

As for the noise, from your explanation, it sounds like the transfer case is under a heavy bind. Take it off of the road in some grass or dirt and then move it forward a few feet then simply hit reverse. Don't move much maybe an inch and it may release the bind. Once you get the bind off the transfer case, it should slip out of 4wd, unless there is damage in the case/shifter itself.

When operating four wheel drives, with tires of different sizes it causes extreme stress on the gearing in the transfer case. Larger tires don't turn the axles as much as smaller tires. So, this causes stress in the driveline as the front is actually turning slower then the rear. In turn, this will put so much pressure on the gears that it could cause damage and the shifting mechanism will not work correctly to pull it out of 4wd engagement.

Try those ideas, and see if you can get it out of 4WD. Definitely put four tires on the jeep that are all the same size. This will keep you from having excessive stress on the transfer case and gearing therein.

I hope this helps out buddy.

Sounds like you need front wheel speed sensors. Replace the wheel bearings and sensors. May have an ABS unit fault, but more likely is both wheel bearings/speed sensors.

unfortunatly .it requires a computer to remove the code.if youve done that you have access to one. go to the abs functions and tell it to bleed.

2007 Jeep compass C101F code. Only threw the code after I replaced the wheel bearing, cv shaft and wheel speed sensor. What now?

This is possibly an issue with the Right Front wheel speed sensor. The ECU is reading a different speed on that wheel compared to the Left side. Check your wiring for the sensor you've fitted. Make sure it is fitted correctly and tightly fastened down. Check both sides.
It will be worth getting the ABS module checked as well. The sometimes throws up error codes if wheel speed sensors are disconnected or replaced.

2008 Dodge charger 5.7 Code C1041 left front tone wheel performance

When you pulled the left front, did you notice any metal stuck to it(the metal would most likely be rusty)? If so replace the wheel bearing. Pull the sensor again and check. If not, look at the wires about a foot back from the sensor plug. Wires do tend to break close to the plug.

2002 2WD CHEVY TAHOE ABS

Its possible that right wheel speed sensor is dropping out early making the truck think that wheel is locking up. That will activate the ABS and let the brake go on the right wheel which will make the vehicle pull slightly left. The only way to know for sure is to watch the wheel speeds on a scanner and see which one is drpping out first and replacing that speed sensor/bearing assembly.

good Luck
