What to do when your 4WD fuse keeps blowing?
Try unplugging the 2 wire plug that goes to the front diff actuator and see if the fuse still blows, if it does not then you know the actuator is no good. Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
Can a blown fuse cause a starter to not start?
Blown fuse – Sometimes the simplest explanation is the best one. A blown fuse in the starter circuit could be the cause of a no-start problem. Broken or corroded wiring – Damaged or dirty wires to the battery or to the starter solenoid (or wires that are loose) can prevent sufficient power from reaching the starter.
How can you tell when a fuse has been blown?
You might be wondering, then, how to tell if a fuse is blown–an actual fuse, that is. You will see that the fuse has melted, and there might be charring on the panel. A true fuse typically consists of a piece of metal, most commonly an encased wire, that actually melts when overheated. This is what stops the fault (aka “short” or “power surge” ).
Why does my transfer case fuse keep blowing?
Replaced Transfer case motor, stopped blowing the atc fuse, but now it will not come out of 4hi. Pull atc fuse and the front actuator will disengage the front, put it back in an the acuator engages the front. When you push the 2hi actuator and motor sound like there trying to engage but light blinks and goes back to 4hi.

Why does my 4 wheel drive not engage?
The transfer case could pose another reason why your 4 wheel drive fails to engage. This could be due to the vehicle not coming to a complete stop to allow it to engage. This is because the splined pin and gears of the actuator need to align 100% with the gears inside the transfer case.
Why does the 4 wheel drive light stop flashing?
The transfer case neutral position needs to be selected before you attempt to engage 4WD. The selected position indicator light will flash until the transfer case completes the shift. When the shift is complete, the indicator light for the selected position will stop flashing and remain ON.
