Is there a service 4WD on my Silverado?
I have a 2004 Chevy silverado the service 4WD comes I have a 2004 chevy… I have a 2004 chevy silverado.. the service 4WD comes on in the service center on dash. None of the lights are on in the 4wd selector switch. Will not ingage 4wd either. I have taken to a mechanic and he is puzzled also.
Why is my Chevy Silverado not going 4WD?
If your truck is driving perfectly fine but switching into 4WD doesn’t engage the front wheels, you might have a bad axle actuator. Replacing the actuator is pretty easy and inexpensive.
Why is my service 4WD message not working?
The 4WD transfer case encoder motor position sensor or the selector switch may fail causing the service 4WD message to be displayed. Fault code(s) stored in the transfer case control module will be of assistance in determining the exact fault causing the message to be displayed.
What to do if your Chevy Silverado won’t start?
Replaced selector switch, replaced transfer case motor, and cleaned up the 2 ground bolts under the driver side door. Still service 4X4 comes on in the message box on consol. What next? 4wd switch went to Red Neutral and later the service 4WD came on. Started my truck up and it showed a message saying needs 4wd service. And now my 4wd won’t engage.
