If all the requirements to select a new transfer case
position have been met, the current position indica-
tor light will turn off, the selected position indicator
light will flash until the transfer case completes the
shift. When the shift is complete, the position indi-
cator light for the selected position will stop flashing
and remain on.
AWDAUTOToAWDLOW
NOTE:
When shifting into or out of AWD LOW some gear noise
may be heard. This noise is normal and is not detrimen-
tal to the vehicle or occupants.
Shifting can be performed with the vehicle rolling 2 to
3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) or completely stopped. Use either
of the following procedures:
Preferred Procedure
1. With the engine running, slow the vehicle to 2 to
3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).
2. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
3. While still rolling, push the AWD LOW control switch.
4. After the AWD LOW position indicator light is on (not
flashing), shift the transmission back into gear.
Alternate Procedure
1. Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
2. With the ignition in ON/RUN position and engine
running, shift the transmission to NEUTRAL.
3. Push the AWD LOW control switch.
4. After the AWD LOW position indicator light is on (not
flashing), shift the transmission back into gear.
NOTE:
•
If steps 1 or 2 of either the “Preferred” or “Alternate
Procedure” are not satisfied prior to attempting the
shift or if they no longer are being met while the
shift attempt is in process, the desired position indi-
cator light will flash continuously while the original
position indicator light is on, until all requirements
have been met.
•
The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position
for a shift to take place and for the position indica-
tor lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not
in the ON/RUN position, then the shift will not take
place and no position indicator lights will be on or
flashing.
