Hi guys,
I'm new on this forum after buying a d/c D40, 2010 ST manual recently. This is such a great owner's resource; thanks for everybody who contributes!
I'm really happy with the ute; all seems to be in good condition, but there is one problem:
4hi doesn't engage (but 4lo does?!)
I've searched the forum, but couldn't find a thread dealing with this scenario (but may have missed it, so sorry if that is the case).
So what happens is the following:
When trying to engage 4x4 high range, nothing happens, except for the 4x4 indicator on the dash that starts flashing and the fwd warning light comes on. Stopping, putting in neutral with foot on the brake - nothing works.
But switching to 4x4 low range (stopping, putting in neutral with foot on the brake) does work. You hear the "clunk" of the transfer case engaging, the 4x4 indicator shows 4x4 lo engaged, the fwd warning light goes off and moving off confirms that it is actually in low range, 4x4.
I've seen previous threads about ABS sensors or the switches / sensors on the transfer case, but don't know if this applies to what happens with my Nav?
Anybody has any ideas what is the problem with my ute? I would love to be able to take it to the beach - the mulloway are supposed to arrive any day now...
