Major whine noise at low speed
Hi....my 99 4w drive blazer is making a very loud whining noise at speeds under 40 MPH. The noise goes away over 40. Sounds as if it coming from the front of the truck but hard to be sure. I coasted the truck with it turned off and the noise went away, so I don't think it's wheel bearing related. Transmission shifts fine and engine runs well. Sounds like an electric motor that runs at high volumn then drops slowly in rpms. Good with mechanical issues but don't have much experience with four wheel drives.
Thanks

Doesn't occur when idling even when it's in gear. The noise starts out at a low rpm then revs up high and loud...then drops down to nothing when totally stopped. Like drilling through something with a hand drill.

Stick the fuse back in for the encoder motor. Drive it til you hear the noise, then select 4WD HI and see if the noise changes. Don't leave it in 4WD, only long enough to see if the noise changes, (4WD should not be used on dry pavement).
