4X4 not working

According to my wiring diagrams there are not any under the hood.

Both fuses are good both have power. All wiring has been checked and repaired. Will double check to make sure it was done correctly.

Update, found another broken wire on the encoder now the 4wd just kicks out. All buttons on dash work but it kicks on then it kicks out immeaditly.

Is there anyway that you can engage the 4 wheel drive without using the buttons on the dash? They are not in working order. Everything works except the buttons/switches on the dash. Thanks in advance. Paul Gates paulnvick@cableone. Net

So, there is no way to get it out of 4 wheel, until I change the switches? Are they 12 volt current to each: 4H, 4L, 2H? Can't I jump the one for 2H and make it go into 2H? I just need to know which wires to jump across. I guess the most it would do, would be to blow the fuse, right? Please advise, would like to drive my vehicle. I'm an unemployed construction foreman and they want $75 for the switch at Autozone and they have to order it! So, looking for a used one at the salvage yard, but harder than it sounds and they want $40 for it, when I find it! Would appreciate the help if possible. Thanks in advance. Paul

My vehicle will not go into 4 wheel drive. I have replaced the 4x4 switch and module. Dealer said that these are most common problems. Had a friend install and same problem continues. Any suggstions.

Tires and Wheels problem
1995 Chevy Tahoe V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic

how do I engage 4x4 on my 1995 chevy tahoe?

Pull the level on the floor (under the dash, between the drivers and passengers seat) to 4X4. This can be done while moving. If stopped, it will take a few revolutions of the tires to engage the 4WD.

If you want 4X4 low, you will need to place the transmission in Neutral before shifting to 4X4 low.

My 96 Tahoe does not engage the 4 wheel drive. The light on the 4 wheel drive just flashes but it sounds like the transmission is trying to shift into 4 wheel.

I have changed the 4x4 swicth that goes in the front axel and it still is not working ! What else could it be, What would make the four wheel drive not work?

Eeesh!
Looks like they’ve merged several conversations and now it’s all gobbledegook!

Here goes again:

I have a similar problem.
1998 Tahoe (on small island of Guam so parts are hard to come by).

I use 4x4 allot getting boat out of the water. It was working fine until last week when it stopped working.

After reading your thread, I found that my #2 fuse was also blown. I replaced an 4x4 worked immediately - once. Now I blow a fuse every time I replace the fuse and the engage the 4x4!
I've just let the truck in 4x4 mode and so far haven't blown any more fuses and the 4x4 is working. The problem seems to arise when I switch out of 4x4 and back in.
I'm also pulling a trailer that is submerged in saltwater. All the lights work and it was not causing a problem before - but could be a short?

Help?
