the rear case.
1. Raise vehicle.
2. Position drain pan under transfer case.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove the exhaust
y-pipe at the exhaust manifold to properly access
the fill and drain plugs. Lowering the exhaust will
allow the plugs to be accessed for torquing during
installation. (Refer to 11 - EXHAUST SYSTEM/EX-
HAUST PIPE - REMOVAL)

(15-25 ft. lbs.).
5. Remove drain pan.
6. Fill transfer case to bottom edge of fill plug opening with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic Transmission fluid.
7. Install and tighten fill plug (2) to 20-34 Nꞏm (15-25 ft. lbs.).
8. Install the exhaust y-pipe to the exhaust manifold, if removed. (Refer to 11 - EXHAUST SYSTEM/EXHAUST
PIPE - INSTALLATION)
9. Wipe any excess fluid that mayhave spilled onto the exhaust.
10. Lower vehicle.

SEAL-FRONT OUTPUT SHAFT
REMOVAL
1. Remove the front propeller shaft (Refer to 3 - DIF-
FERENTIAL & DRIVELINE/PROPELLER SHAFT/
PROPELLER SHAFT - REMOVAL).
2. Remove the front propeller shaft seal boot retaining
clamp (2).
3. Remove the front propeller shaft seal boot (1) from
the front output shaft seal slinger (2).
4. Remove the front output shaft seal slinger (1) by
bending the slinger away (2) from the transfer
case.
5. Using a suitable pry tool, remove the slinger from
the output shaft using care not to damage the
shaft.
6. Using a screw and a slide hammer, remove the
front output shaft seal.

INSTALLATION
1. Install the new front output shaft seal with Seal Installer MB991168A.
2. Install the front output shaft seal slinger with Oil Slinger Installer 8840. Install the slinger onto the shaft until the
tool contacts the rear of the output shaft.
3. Install a new seal boot clamp onto the seal boot.
4. Install the seal boot and clamp onto the slinger hub and tighten the clampwith Crimp Tool C-4975-A.
5. Install front propeller shaft (Refer to 3 - DIFFERENTIAL & DRIVELINE/PROPELLER SHAFT/PROPELLER
SHAFT - INSTALLATION).

SENSOR-MODE
DESCRIPTION
The transfer case mode sensor is an electronic device whose output can be interpreted to indicate the shift motor
shaft’s rotary position. The sensor consists of a magnetic ring and four Hall Effect Transistors to create a 4 channel
digital device (non-contacting) whose output converts the motor shaft position into a coded signal. The TCCM must
supply 5VDC (+/- 0.5v) to the sensor and monitor the shift motor position. The four channels are denoted A, B, C,
and D. The sensor is mechanically linked to the shaft of the cam which causesthe transfer case shifting. The mode
sensor draws less than 53 mA.
OPERATION
During normal vehicle operation, the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM)monitors the mode sensor outputs at
least every 250 (+/-50) milliseconds when the shift motor is stationary and 400 microseconds when the shift motor
is active. A mode sensor signal between 3.8 Volts and 0.8 Volts is considered to be undefined.
Refer to SECTOR ANGLES vs. TRANSFER CASE POSITION for the relative angles of the transfer case shift sector
versus the interpreted transfer case gear operating mode. Refer to MODE SENSOR CHANNEL STATES for the
sensor codes returned to the TCCM for each transfer case mode sensor position. The various between gears posi-
tions can also be referred as the transfer case’s coarse position. These coarse positions come into play during shift
attempts.

SWITCH-TRANSFER CASE SELECTOR
DESCRIPTION
The selector switch assembly is mounted in the left side of the vehicle’s Instrument Panel (IP) and consists of a
rotary knob connected to a resistive network for the mode and range shift selections. Also located in this assembly
is a recessed, normally open momentary switch for making shifts into and out of transfer case NEUTRAL. A pen, or
similar instrument, is used to make a NEUTRAL shift selection, thus reducing the likelihood of an inadvertent shift
request.
The selector switch also contains light emitting diode’s (LED’s) to indicate the transfer case position and whether a
shift is in progress.
OPERATION
As the position of the selector switchvaries, the resistance between the Mode Sensor supply voltage pin and the
Mode Sensor output will vary. Hardware, software, and calibrations within the Transfer Case Control Module
(TCCM) are provided that interpret the selector switch resistance as giveninthetablebelow:SELECTORSWITCH
INTERPRETATION
SELECTOR SWITCH INTERPRETATION
Step Resistance Range (ohms) Required Interpretation
A <200 Shorted
B 400-700 NEUTRAL
C 1050-1450 4LO
D 1850-2300 4H
E 3050-5950 AWD (Default)
F 9.5-12.5K In between positions
G>15.5KOpen
For resistances between the ranges B-E shown for each valid position (T-Case NEUTRAL, 4LO, 4HI, AWD), the
TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
either of the neighboring valid positions.
as an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges E and F shown for AWD and in-between positions, the TCCM may interpret the
resistance as:
the AWD position.
an invalid fault position.
a valid in-between position.
For resistances between the ranges F and G shown for in-between positions and fault condition (open), the TCCM
may interpret the resistance as:
a valid in-between position.
an invalid fault position.
For resistances between the ranges A and B shown for the fault condition (short) and , T-Case NEUTRAL, the
TCCM may interpret the resistance as:
the T-Case NEUTRAL position.
an invalid fault position.
The LED’s in the selector assembly are illuminated/flashed in the following manner to indicate a particular condition
or state.
A solidly illuminated LED indicates asuccessfully completed shift and the current operating mode of the trans-
fer case. While a shift has been requested but not yet completed, the LED forthe desired transfer case posi-
tion is flashed.
A flashing operating mode LED for the desired gear indicates that a shift tothat position has been requested,
but all of the driver controllable conditions have not been met. This is in an attempt to notify the driver that the
transmission needs to be put into NEUTRAL, the vehicle speed is too great, or some other condition outlined
