Shifting Procedures
4WD HI To 4WD LOW
• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph(0 to 5 km/h), key ON or engine
running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will
begin to flash and remain on solid
when the shift is complete. Release the
T-handle.
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur
due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may
be required for clutch teeth alignment
and shift completion to occur. The
preferred method is with the vehicle
rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the
vehicle is moving faster than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the transfer case will not
allow the shift.
4WD LOW To 4WD HI

running, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL, and raise the transfer case
T-handle. The “4WD LOW” indicator
light in the instrument cluster will flash
and go out when the shift is complete.
Release the T-handle.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
• Key ON, engine off.
• Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
• Place the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Hold down the NEUTRAL “pin” switch
(with a pen, etc.) for four seconds until
the LED light by the switch starts to
blink indicating shift in progress. The
light will stop blinking (stay on solid)
