When you place the transfer case in 4wdm you should get 12 volts to your brown wire at your new actuator at the front axle. There is also a 4wd switch beside the actuator that indicates that the front is locked, inspect that for any signs of damage and repair if any.

The switch only indicates to the light on your console to light turn on and off.

Good luck and keep us posted. ;)

I bought a new actuator for my 2000 gmc sierra, after much research on line trying to match up my symptoms with what others had. The old 4 wheel drive actuator on front axle doesn't work nor does the new one, I'm getting power to the brown wire on the harness that connects to the actuator...the switch light is solid on 2 hi but only blinks on 4 high when I try to engage..NO 4W Service light on Dash is ever displayed and I can hear some clicking on transfer case where the encoder is...any thoughts..thanks in advance

How does the switch on the transfer case play into this system? Is there something mechanical that happens to this switch when the 4wd is engaged? If, the switch on the xfer case is supplying power to the acuator, I would like to bybass this switch with a toggle switch in the cab. There is a brown wire and a light blue wire going into the switch on the xfer case switch.

I just replaced the acuator on my 91 k2500, but the 4wd is still iffy, sometimes it engages, sometimes not...

Thanks

Hello, hive! I have a 1999 GMC K1500 Suburban. When I step on the brake pedal, no keys in switch, the dash and marker lights come on. When headlights are off, driving normally, both turn signals work normally, but the dash and marker lights flash with right turn signal. When headlights are on, left signaL works normally, but right signal buzzes a little at the relay, but does not blink, even though the rear lamp does light on the right side. I am at a loss. So is my mechanic. Help??

How did all that work out?
I'm wondering about your preferred PSI for tires.
My mechanic recommended 32 psi for my heavily-loaded 1990 Vandura.
That's what I've used for years (once it was around 36-38, and that felt like I was on rollerblades and could not sense the road . . . ), yet I see videos saying that 32 is way too low and damages tires . . .

(I got 11-12 years out of my tires at 32 psi.)

Thank you for any helpful feedback!

I'm replacing a lower seat foam and leather. The lower foam is attached to a smaller metal frame and is then bolted to the main seat frame. At the rear of the foam/smaller frame there are 2 locating pins that must fit into holes at the rear of the lower seat before the 2 front screws line up with the holes to put screws in. I' not sure what to call them but I need at least 1, 2 would be better, help please.

"I've come across quite a few articles about lifter damage lately. I assume much of it is marketing hype, but I suspect there’s some truth to it in certain cases. Any thoughts or real-world experiences?"
