4wd issues.

[DKD15]

Hey,

2016 1500 tradesman, 4x4, (winter beater). My service 4wd light came on and is now stuck on.

Backstory. My passenger cv shaft is stuck/ seized in the diff (needs a new front diff), the cv cup is still stuck in the diff but the rest of the shaft was removed for safety. so for the last year I've be driving only in 2wd without issue, noises, or grinding.

My question is, if it is the tcase actuator motor, can I not just ignore the service code and keep sending it? Or am I setting myself up for a big ticket repair? She going to the dealer Monday for dynogstic to confirm my theory.

You can rebuild the front diff. The Stealersh!t will tell you you cant but thats normal SOP for those scumbags.

Plenty of good shop in Edmonton, Check out the Berta Ram FB group to get pointed in the right direction.

T case motor code wont hurt anything.

Try unhooking the battery for a while usually gets rid of my service 4x4 comes up every few months common on these trucks

These guys are out of Canada.Watch their video. You can also remove the front driveshaft,then it doesn't matter what the T-case does.
