If you're in 4WD low, then the vehicle needs to be put in neutral before you can switch it back to 4WD HIGH or AWD.

How do you engage and disengage 2004 Chevy Tahoe 4 wheel drive?

To engage your 4 Wheel Drive has 2 steps. 1 Step you must go into Neutral to go from 2H into 4Low( with arrow facing down. To disengage being in 4 Low you must return to neutral and then shift back to 2H. If you are not in very rough terrain or mud, which would require more torque, you may use step 2. which is going from 2H to 4H( Up Arrow) at anytime without shifting into neutral first.

Why Does your 4 wheel drive not engage on your 2003 f-250?

on almost any automatic 4 wheel drive the gears that engage the hub could be stripped out or stuck cause if you know what the gears that engage the wheel than you would know that they are fradgile lookin but that is what im thinkin it is cause that's what happened to my truck so you probally need some manual hubs to make sure they always work or the problem might be that your transmissoin to the front wheels might be jacked up I don't know Fords that well, but many 4 wheel drive use a small motor basically to engage the 4 wheel drive. These can go bad or become stuck. If you engage the 4 wheel drive with a switch, it is this type. Could be the motor, the switch, fuse.


What is the advantage of a four-wheel drive vs a six-wheel drive?

Four wheel drive tends to be lighter, and less complex.. with a six wheel drive (such as in the M35, M39, M913, etc. series military trucks), you usually have to have an interaxle differential lock. In normal operations, tandem axle trucks, such as dump trucks, tractor trailers, etc. only have one axle which drives them forward. When they need to, the driver can engage the differential lock to engage the second drive axle. On a 6x6 truck, such as the type described above, the transfer case would be used to engage the front axle.


Why would the four wheel drive not engage on your dodge ram 1500?

probably a vacuum system leak. Older dodge trucks had the front transaxle engage by a vacuum line. Make sure your pump is working, and that there are no leaks. Then it should engage

Why would Service Four Wheel Drive light come on occasionally and not engage 4wheel drive when light is on?

If you have push button 4-Wheel Drive, it is recommended that you use it every once in a while, in order to keep gunk, rust, and corrosion to build up on moving parts. The mostly likeley (though not definite) reason would be that you let the 4-wheel drive unused for so long that corrosion has built up on the parts and the actuator that engages the 4-Wheel Drive doesn't have the power to engage it past the corrosion. You'll most likely need to take it in to be cleaned, or to have parts replaced. In the future, every month or so, engage 4-Wheel Drive and drive around in some mud, grass, sand, or any other loose ground for a bit, just to keep the parts moving and clean.
