Ok, After a very thorough bath in electrical component cleaner, and putting my weight into making sure my solenoid plug is fully clicked in, problem seems to be solved, not pulling any codes, and shifting smoothly trough all gears. Saying that, I recently changed my Transfer case fluid (NV236, Yes used Autotrack II). Im getting clunking in Auto, and 4hi. not in 2hi. Service 4WD light comes on and lights on my 4 button switch go out. Seems to be just staying in 4x4 and clunks during acceleration. My transfer case has 3 plugs, top one is the one with the Torx/ Allan and there are two other identical ones on the back. Bottom and mid way up. I drained all the old fluid out of the very bottom plug, then filled it untill it was up to the top Torx/Allan plug. used a hose with a manual pump to fill, but seemed like there where two different places to fill. directly above the hole for the plug, and if I fed the hose in further it seemed like there was a separate chamber. so filled the first till it started to overflow, then I could still put fluid it the further top portion without it flowing out of the plug.... After about 2 1/3 L of fluid I didn't add anymore. Did I do anything wrong? Thanks, Vic.

The transmission problem is fixed, cool! Thanks for posting back.

It would be best to start a new thread for the 4WD issue using an appropriate title.

The OP had the same problem and was able to repair it with the information in this thread. Read the entire thread, especially post #5 and the first sentence in post #22.

Did you check all of the fuses outlined in post #8? Were they all OK? Do you have battery voltage on the pink wire at the transmission connector with the ignition in the RUN position?

All fuses were good, the ign 0 fuse was reading 11.5 volts and the E pin was reading 11.6...
