Shifting from 2HI or 4HI to 4LO
To shift from 2HI or 4HI to 4LO, the vehicle must be
stopped or moving less than 3mph (4.8 km/h) with the
transmission in NEUTRAL (N) in vehicles equipped
with an automatic transmission or the clutch pedal
engaged in vehicles equipped with a manual
transmission. The preferred method for shifting into 4LO
is to have your vehicle moving 1 to 2mph (1.6 to
3.2km/h). Press and release the 4LO button. You must
wait for the 4LO indicator light to stop flashing and
remain illuminated before shifting your transmission into
gear or releasing the clutch pedal.
If the 4LO button is pressed when your vehicle is in
gear and/or moving, the 4LO indicator light will flash for
30seconds and not complete the shift unless your
vehicle is moving slower than 3mph (4.8 km/h) and the
transmission is in NEUTRAL (N) or the clutch pedal
engaged.
On automatic transmission equipped vehicles, if your
transfer case does not shift into 4LO, your transmission
indicator switch may require adjustment. With your
transmission in NEUTRAL (N), press and release the
4LO button. While the 4LO indicator light is flashing, shift
your transmission into PARK (P). Wait until the 4LO
indicator light remains illuminated before shifting
your transmission into gear. This will get you into 4LO,
but you should take your vehicle in for service to
restore normal operation.
