Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 GMC Yukon XL, 2005 GMC Yukon, 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2005 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 2:  This step tests for proper operation of the transfer case mode select switch.
  2. 3:  This step tests the mode switch for proper resistance values in all mode switch states.
  3. 4:  This step tests the switch signal wire for a short to ground, short to voltage, or high resistance.

  1. Install a scan tool.
  2. Start the engine.
  3. Set the parking brake.
  4. Place the transmission into Neutral.
  5. With a scan tool, observe the Mode Switch Selected parameter.
  6. Select each of the modes.
Does the scan tool indicate that the modes are in the correct state while pressing the mode buttons?		 - Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems Go to Step 3

  1. With the switch disconnected, connect a DMM between the mode switch signal circuit and the 5-volt reference circuit at the switch.
  2. Measure the resistance through the mode switch while pressing and holding each of the mode buttons and comparing values.
Does the DMM indicate all resistance values within the specified ranges?		 Normal: 8.63-9.54 K Ω
2 HI: 1.50-1.53 K Ω
AWD: 61.65-68.15Ω
4 HI: 656-670 Ω
4 LO: 2.32-2.37 K Ω
Neutral: 1.015-1.035 K Ω		 Go to Step 4  Go to Step 5

  1. Disconnect the transfer case shift control module connectors C1 and C2.
  2. Test the switch signal and 5-volt reference circuits for a short to voltage, a short to ground, or a high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?		 - Go to Step 7  Go to Step 6 
5 Replace the mode switch. Refer to Transfer Case Shift Control Switch Replacement .
Did you complete the repair?		 - Go to Step 7  -
6 Replace the transfer case shift control module. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
Did you complete the repair?		 - Go to Step 7  -
