Hi!
In 2008 I bought my lovely RAM 1500 5.9 4x4 and what should I say? I often used the 4WD, but only in "4H" and never in "4Low". This sounds strange, but I never needed it before. But yesterday I tried to use it and it didn't work, what means that I could not switch from "2H" into "4Low", because the gearchange "stucks" somehow. To change and drive to/with "4H" is quite good and works absolutely ok (so changing from "2H" into "4H" and back is perfect; no strange sounds, no difficulties). I tried nearly everything: with and w/o running engine, gearshift to "N" and "D". Nothing.
It seems that that the "4Low" is kind of blocked.
Now my question: Does any "trick" exist or is this a technical failure or am I just an idiot?
Sorry for my bad English and thx for your help in advance!
