You have a switch on the side of the transfer case and you have a actuator in the differential front end if you dont use your four wheel drive often that can be a problem if you have no reason to use it stil once every three months engage your four wheel drive and ride around your neiborhood sometime the switches get stuck tap on those if that doesnt help loosen them up replace them

Why wont my 2002 chevy tahoe go in to fourwheel drive i can hear both acutores kick in

There could be a few possible causes for your 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe not going into four-wheel drive when you engage the system. Some common issues include:

The four-wheel drive system may not be properly engaged. Make sure that the four-wheel drive switch is in the correct position and that you are following the proper procedure for engaging the system.

The four-wheel drive system may be mechanically damaged. This could be caused by a problem with the transfer case, the drive axles, or other components of the system.

There may be a problem with the four-wheel drive system's control module or other electrical components.

There may be a problem with the four-wheel drive system's vacuum lines or other mechanical components.

To troubleshoot the issue, you can try the following steps:

Check the four-wheel drive switch and make sure it is in the correct position.

Check the four-wheel drive system's control module and make sure it is functioning properly.

Check the four-wheel drive system's vacuum lines and make sure they are not damaged or disconnected.

If the issue persists, it may be necessary to have the vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic.

If you are not comfortable performing these steps, or if the issue persists after trying these troubleshooting steps, it may be a good idea to contact a mechanic or a Chevrolet dealership for further assistance.

I have a 1999 GMC Suburban. I have automatic four wheel drive but when I shift into four wheel high it makes clunking sound. I have not tried four wheel low. I wondered why I can still use auto four wheel...

the auto 4 wheel does the same as part time in jeeps, it engages only when the vehicle loses traction. when auto 4 wheel is on the truck isn't fully in 4 wheel drive. my 02 sierra makes the clunk noise too but it does engage. try checking your fluids, i know its way pass the time for me to change mine out.

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
