| Does anyone keep having to replace the electric switching solenoid in their tranny? I am at 100,000 and this is my 3rd one! Any insight? | |
| I've been having a problem with what I'm guessing is some type of trasfer case control/solenoid. Could you describe the symptom so I can tell if it's the same thing? I haven't brought mine in for servicing yet. But basically, sometimes when I start it, the 4x4 selector light shows the red dot in the neutral position rather than the amber 2x4 light. Also the dash flashes "service 4x4". Other times, when I start it, it goes to Auto4x4 rather than staying in 2x4. Other times I can't shift from one mode to another. Usually, I can get it to reset by shutting off the truck and restarting. Rarely, I have to also play with the buttons and/or shift into neutral while doing so. Sound like the same thing? Mine is a 2003 with 60k miles. The problems started around 55k. Thanks. | |

After many encoder modules he found a update on the 2002 and did it to mine. It is a sensor that works with the encoder! Knock on wood it has worked well for several months now! Good Luck!

I purchased a used 2002 Avalache and it did not come with the owners manual. Does anyone know how I can get one? Thanks, Thomas

| I've been having recurring problems with my transmission leaking fluid...been taking it for service every year...getting gaskets replaced, etc. Been having this problem occur since it was purchased in 2004. They say they can't seem to find the actual cause of the leak...they just do some "bandaid" job of repair, a temp fix...as soon as I start driving it again, the leak eventually starts up again...any clues for a final solution...my driveway is starting to look like a Dalmation with all the fluid leak spots! | |
