2013 ram 1500
140,000 km on the truck
I had to replace my front axle assembly due to stub shafts not being available. Anyways now that i have installed the new to me axle from the wrecker i no longer have a working 4x4 truck.
Before the install i did look over the axle to make sure that it functioned mechanically, which it did so i tossed it in and here we are.
So now when i press the 4wheel lock button on the console the light illuminates as well as the one on the dash but eventually on the EVIC i get a message stating 4wd temporarily unavailable... same goes for 4wheel auto and 4wheel low.
The transfer case functions as normal and i can hear the actuator moving but no power getting to the ground. Took the truck to my local family mechanic and he did find a wheel speed code (old) and a transmission overheat code, both cleared.
Went out again tonight and again still get the same message, anyone have any insight into this issue as im at a loss with my truck not being able to function with 4x4 in the winter.
Also ive called nearly 15 dealerships in ontario and not a single person has heard of this problem so im reaching out.
Any input will be much appreciated
i can post a video or a link to my youtube tomorrow if anyone needs a visual
