@@aibanicemanmaybe something deeper in that actuator (gears? PCB?) or maybe the mosfets/relays in the 4wd computer are fried, or cables? Do you hear the relays ticking from the passenger side trying to spin that actuator?

Thanks for the additional video… so the problem is also intermittent … starts or stops working when I hit a bump on the road… noticed it works when I changed to a new battery … would voltage be a reason.. checked and cleaned connectors with wd40 … would that suggest wiring than fried computer ? Any more ideas ?
@@aibanicemanwait, I don't think wd40 is something you clean electrical connections with, it might make the contacts even worse. Try a contact cleaner (at least to clean out the wd40 you sprayed in there)
thank you very much, I have the same problem on the dashboard, the 4l and n lights are flashing and a 4wd system fault message. As a result, the car burns a lot of fuel. the mechanic advised me to change the transfer case but I think I will first follow your method before changing the box
@@Valkush I don't have the app, it was the mechanic who scanned the vehicle and he just asked me to change the transfer case and I didn't know there were error codes
@mwaz consider buying a cheap obd dongle like I've used in the video. It's a few bucks on aliexpress and gives you a ton of information from the sensors
Hi. Thanks for your video. Got the C1228 code as the same lights were flashing. Just that the code did not clear and the vehicle is not shifting out of 3rd gear to 4th. Mechanic said I need to change transfer switch behind the 4L/N dial. Auto parts place said have to replace entire panel - special order. Any suggestions? Appreciate it.
Hi can it causes some play and disgusting metallic sounds in 4WD transfer case?? My front and rear driveshaft move so much when shifting from R to D or viceversa
2:14 Hi, I have the same problem. It's my first car and I didn't know anything about that function. I just pressed the button to test it and the error came up. So can I get the part online? That's the first thing. The second thing is, in case I can repair it, what kind of grease or cleaner can I use?
I cleaned the magnet with WD-40, but probably a brake cleaner would work. And I had lithium grease so I used it, that might be not the optimal grease but it worked.. I didnt grease/wd40 the electricity contact pads on the stator, only the magnet and the tip of the stator where it spins inside the cover
I have the same problem with the traction lights flashing after I've been driving for a while, I have version 1.9ddis and it gives me the error code c1093, what can I do to solve it? Thank you
question! I want to disconnect the transmission shaft between the transfer case and the front wheels in order to eliminate the permanent 4*4 and reduce fuel consumption. is this safe?
I got exactly the same problem, gonna open up my actuator motor today! Hope for the same luck as you!
Good luck and let me know it it worked for you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I found plenty of posts on drive.ru on that topic.
@@Valkush I checked my motor but it was burned, i have a replacement one on the way!
@MrWajifino, I'm glad that you found the solution, I hope the 4wd module wasn't affected. Did you buy the whole actuator module? Or only the rotor?
@@Valkush had to buy the whole actuator module… at least i get some peace of mind that 4L and everything will work again.
2007 2.0 ... this might be the answer I needed.. God bless you ValkA :)
update... the motor housing was absolutely clean inside... any other options you suggest?

Hi, thanks. I have the same blinking light but with the u1101 error code. can cleaning this shifter solve functioning my not engaging shifter?
Is it the only error? Or you also see U1073?

I doubt it'll reduce your fuel consumption, the wheels will be spinning the diff even without the propshaft.
Not sure it's safe, I would keep it 4wd...
