#2177 of 2255 Re: 2000 rodeo 4x4 not engaging. [biggsvaj] by al8729 Apr 27, 2008 (7:14 pm)
Replying to: biggsvaj (Feb 28, 2007 3:52 pm) Hello   If your's or anybody's 4wd is still out action as of April 2008; I have the most likely solution for you.   First, I recommend you have a professional mechanic perform this task unless you are tech savvy enough. But just recently I fixed the "non-operative" 4wd on my 2000 Rodeo. Your problem is definately the 4wd actuator, on the front axle. It is behind a large, black steel plate which must be un-bolted and removed; along with the smaller skid plate. What needs to be done is to remove the actuator (housing cover only) and check/clean any corrosion on the sliding, crescent shaped terminals. Basically, the actuator works perfectly, it is just that lack of use allows corrosion to form on various electrical terminals; and the motor simply isn't receiving enough of the current when you depress the 4wd button. IMPORTANT - make timing marks everywhere - because you will have to remove a large plastic gear or two. The actuator will not function properly in the end if you do not. Note - do not un-screw motor itself, you must start your timing marks from its long plastic spindle. Next, after re-assembling the housing, unplug the cable that powers the actuator and clean the metal terminals with a long piece of custom cut eraser (preferably a bit of a white one, cause they leave behind no residue). This can be done with a small sharp knife. Finally, if you have put everything back together properly; the 4wd will work. You must be moving for it to engage. Turn the wheels as well, to assist the process. Good luck.

Hi, there,           I changed the battery of keyless entry, but it cannot activate the door lock any more. It looks like the keyless entry is energized by the new battery for the flashing light when you push the keystrokes.          What shall I do? Thanks a lot!

Replying to: nyaz (May 06, 2008 8:59 am) The Edmunds Maintenance Guide will tell you what Isuzu recommends.   And it'll tell you what it should cost in your zip code.   The owners here will have have suggestions about "extra" repairs/maintenance to consider.

Replying to: nyaz (May 06, 2008 8:59 am) I also have a 2001. It depends a bit on how you use it (on or off road, towing alot or not) and also what you have done to it so far. The biggest thing at 100,000 miles is the timing belt according to the factory manual (Haynes says at 60,000). Get either an OEM Isuzu belt or a high quality NAPA belt (will run about $50). Also, If you haven't done them up to this point, the spark plugs need to be replaced. Fuel filter, coolant replacement and transmission fluid / filter change would also be things to do soon.   If you have questions on these things, I'll answer what I can, but hopefully this gives you a start.
#2182 of 2255 Determining transmission type by jmunley May 10, 2008 (11:48 am)
Hello,   I have a 1992 Isuzu Rodeo 4WD with the transfer case built into the transmission. There is a fill plug at the top of the transfer case, a drain plug at the bottom of the transfer case, and a level check plug midway up on the passenger side of the transmission. I need to know what model of transmission this is. Any suggestions as to how to figure this out? The model choices are MUA, MSG, BW, and W/V   Thank you!   Jason Replies to this message: okmech1 (May 11, 2008 7:29 am)

Replying to: jmunley (May 10, 2008 11:48 am) There should be an identification plate just above the position switch on the driver's side.
