Hi, I have an '89 Cherokee 4.0L manuel tranny. My 4WD has worked fine every since I had its acutator replaced. Now, when I move the lever, to "4H" position, I get no light on the dash and am not sure I am in 4WD. Is there a quick check for this? I do not have access to a lift. Thanks, Randio.

I've been meaning to fix mine for some time now. Never seem to get around to it. It's possible some grit got into the connections on the switch causing it to malfunction, or its possible your switch is just bad. About a $35 part I believe.

 

Hey, thanks so much. I will pursue this and hopefully before the snow flies.

 

Ya I need to do this...have also been way too lazy. Pretty common issue from what I see. Thanks for the link.

 

I don't think I have ever had a 4x4 that the dash light worked. YOu should be able to tell if you are in 4 wheel dive by how it handles.

 

Hi, thanks Robert.
