Front Axle Actuator

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The front axle actuator engages and disengages the front axle. The front axle actuator consists of a permanent magnetic (PM) motor, a worm gear controlled plunger, a front axle switch and an electronic control circuit. When a range shift to 4HI, or 4LO is requested, the transfer case shift control module requests engagement of the front axle by grounding the axle actuator control circuit through a current limiting driver. The front axle actuator also sends a return signal to the TCCM indicating when the 4WD is engaged.
