WOW...! Awesome advice David..! My 93 Montero Sr gets stuck in 4x4 every single time I shift into it. Now I know what to look for. Thank you for sharing this Sir.

[@Fireneedsair]

Dude thx! In addition to giving me much info on my 4wd system u saved me from stress in the last minute of your video. I recently tried shifting in 4wdl and the car started beeping. I tried everything to get it to stop and if I had not watched your whole video I would not have known about the need to be in neutral when shifting into 4wdl. So..I started the car, shifted into neutral and boom! All good. Much thx

What a great video. I am currently having a problem with my Pajero glx. All vacuum hoses on the gearbox and transfer case have been removed. It lost power,speedometer doesn't work.etc. may u pliz describe for me how the vacuum line immediately next to the gear lever(not transfer case lever) connects to the transfer vacuum lines and I restore this 4 WD? Eric.

[@thesetruths1404]

Thanks. Now I understand how this system works. I've got a 2003 Montero Limited, 3.8L, 217,000 miles. I've also got the infamous Differential Lock orange blinking light that would come and go for months and eventually stayed, and DTC 33 when I read the codes by jumping pins 1 & 4 on the OBD2 plug and counting the blinks. I also had codes 34 and 35 but after swapping the Freewheel Clutch Solenoid and disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes, the 34/35 codes went away and only 33 remains...the center orange light blinking and no control of the system remain also. The ground cable on the transfer case is good. All device plugs, vacuum hoses and wires are connected, clean and tight. Voltage reads 10.8-volts from each of the switches' harnesses with the ignition key On. I'm trying to figure out which Transfer Position Switch(s) (1 thru 5) is actually bad, before dropping the t-case to swap all 5 of them out. I want to be sure something else is not the issue making it look as of the switches are bad, as I hate swapping parts and doing unnecessary labor. I'm suspicious because I know the clutch solenoids were bad because I tested them, but I doubt they went bad, plus a t-case switch also...as in simultaneously. Maybe so, maybe not. I have a test light probe and a digital voltmeter/ohmmeter. Is there a test procedure to test each switch before dropping the t-case and removing them to be sure it is a switch (or maybe two) and not another issue? Thanks!

[@ibbi270]

You solved it?

[@thesetruths1404]

@@ibbi270 yes. When the solenoid failed it confused the 5 switches. All I did was manually open and ground the applicable plugs to make it cycle from 2wd to 4 low lock and then back to 2h. It reset the switches. I would not suggest changing switches until you do this first, especially if you had a 4x4 part fail and it was replaced.

[@johnschwarz5641]

Hi David. Thanks for the video.. great info. I have a 2003 Montero Limited (in Central Indiana). I grounded pin 1 to pin 4 and the center diff light simply blinked uniformly (I think the short blink) for many minutes. It did this both times I tried it. Any thought on the reason for that? Also, I have a Zurich ZR11 code reader, and it has supposedly reads Mitsubishi ABS codes and it showed a code 35 "engine fail". Do you have any info on whether these issues may be related? IT's from the rust belt, so I'm guessing some of the five Tcase switches are corroded and not working right. I look forward to your thoughts? Thanks.

[@davidg.9478]

I would attempt the pin 1 & 4 again to make sure or pin 1 to a ground. If the 4WD lights are blinking then you have a code that goes with it and you need that code. Engine and ABS codes read from a diffrent ECU and will not represent the 4WD system.

[@CharlesJHin]

I have the centre diff light flashing when driving for a distance. I have a new vacuum solenoid and at the freewheel actuator there is suction in one pipe when in 2H and in the other when in 4H. However, actuator does not move in or out. It does move by hand so not seized. So I am guessing the actuator needs replacement?

[@ionlax28]

Thanks for the video, great help. I’ve got code 33 and am going to replace all 5 switches. Can you tell me the steps to dropping the transfer case? Did you do it with or without disconnecting the driveshaft?

[@davidg.9478]

No, yull have to disconnect the drive shaft and then drop the tranafer case mount and lower the case with a jack. You can lower it enough to reach the switches but youll still have trouble seeing them. So sme feeling around is required.

[@ronchavez2698]

Buy Genuine Mitsubishi switches not cheap aftermarket ones.

[@paulotrindadealves]

David, Thanks for sharing. Good stuff!... On another note,..what type of bumper Make/model is that? Where did you get it? R/

[@davidg.9478]

Your welcome and hope it has helped. Its is a Jeep JK bumper thats 72" wide. Anything shorter won't reach the fenders. I made custom brackets that mounted around the Montero frame to bolt the bumper too. Jeep bumpers have flat plates for mounting so they're not too hard to adapt.

Hello Sir David, I know it doesn't have anything to do with the main content of your video but where can I get a bull bar/guard like your Montero's. I've come across the single tubular model that only holds the fug lights and a winch platform. I like the looks of a full size bull guard.

[@davidg.9478]

The bull bar front bumper i have is a custom fit i did my self. It is a 72" wide Jeep JK bumper. I made custom brackets that bolted around and through the front frame support with plates to mount the JK bumper too. If your looking to use a jeep JK bumper, anything under 72" wont reach the fenders so keep that in mind.

[@dosequzla]

David, are you still answering questions on this video? I have a 2003 very similar to yours but I also have a 2001 XLS and the flashing codes appear on the ABS dashboard light. Have you come across anyone with the same problems but from this year model? is it normal that the it uses the ABS light for emitting those codes?

[@davidg.9478]

I am, and if the ABS light is flashing then there is a code attached to it. I would try to pull the ABS codes before moving forward. The ABS system communicates with the Actic Trac and Super Select but ultimately the ABS system is its own entity and youll need the code in order to resolve the issue.

I've got a 2005 Montero, and one of the lights indicator (rear left) it's off...code it's 35 and apparently I'm not having that wheel enabled (engaged). The system it's up and running, actuators, vacuum set up and the valve switches are working properly but sometimes when driving the transfer light indicator starts to blinking orange. Do you have any clue about where should I start to look into for a quick diagnose? Thanks for your help!

[@davidg.9478]

If one green light is off but the one beside it is on as with the rear wheels... that means you have a light buld blown out. The two front wheels and two rear wheels will always be on or off together unless a bulb is blown. Not a big deal but if it bothers you, youll have to replace the bulb. The code 35 is the front wheel engagement actuator and switch. Watch the area in the video related to the front of the truck, specifically when i talk about the "actuator" and the "switch". Dirty switch plug, bad switch, dirty actuator, or one of the two vacuum lines that goes to the actuator need to be replaced.

I have a link to code sheet in the comments that is good for the 4th Gen +2006. I haven't checked to see if there was any code added for your years. They are in the service tech manuals and not sure if the 2016 manuals are even obtainable yet. Mitsubishi tends to add codes and not change the older ones so the current list should still be valid.

[@machielnel934]

I did this on my 2001 3.2 DID Pajero, my transfer case light blinks constantly at a fixed rate. However, my ABS light gives me codes 21, 22, 23, 24, 33, 52. Is this normal that the ABS instead of the Transfer case light flickers? I have a video that I can share.

[@davidg.9478]

ABS error codes can trip the Activ Trac Super Select system. So i would look into the ABS codes and in addition you can look at the 4WD systems codes to ensure the errors are in response to the ABS system. In your case you need to get tje bigget picture to determine the cause. If i get a chance i will look up the abs code definitions later today.

[@raphaelarlequin]

Mine says code 31. What can I do to fix that?

[@melindagalvez2188]

What is the behavior of the bad actuator?

[@JohnnyBfromPeoria]

You stated that you were going to post a link to a chart with the definitions of the codes in the video description, but I don't see it. Also, I believe to read the codes after shorting pins one and four on the OBD-II connector, the key must then be placed in the "run" position, not the "acc" position, as you stated. And if there are five transfer position switches and one is bad, giving you the 33 code, why would you say that a lot of people just change all five? Isn't that like people replacing the solenoid pack to start with, before even pulling codes...except a lot more expensive? Lastly, can you pull "any" of these codes out of an OBD-I/pre-96 Montero?

[@davidg.9478]

It's a 26min unscripted video of me rushing to include a lot of information. I misspoke several times but for the most part all of it was corrected a some point. People change all five because it's a lot of work to change one and the same amount of work to change five. It's not even comparible to the solenoids. Replacing all would be preventive maintenance after the problem is fixed. Randomly replacing the solenoids cause your lazy to take 2sec to check the code is just moronic. You can pull these codes of any of the active-trac and super select equipped vehicles.

The flashing green light indicate an issue with the front tires like i mentioned in the video. If the center yellow light is flashing it indicates an error or issue in the system.

The non-oem switches aren't as good, and sometimes you need to remove the washer to get them working correctly. The 5th gear issue won't be releated to the 4wd Active-Trac or transfer case. You may have unpluged something for the transmission while changing tbe sensors. You should get a normal Check Engine light code for transmission issues. I would check that with an OBD reader for clues on where to look to fix that.

@davidg.9478 I was having a center blinking light after I changed the sensors I got from RockAuto. I changed them a few weeks ago. Today, when I turned it on, the rear green lights were on. I began shifting through the 4wd. When I went into 4HLc, the orange light came back on. I moved the selector back to 2wd and when I drove it, it wouldn't swift into 5th even when I was manually trying to do it. I'm just trying to figure how to get it into 2wd so I can still drive it. When I turn the front becomes very stiff and almost feels like it's binding.

I got 23, the front propeller speed sensor system. I have no idea where or what that is. If you could that would be great

@@thombo1524 no problem. The code sheet in he comment includes your year and model. So if the active-trac is showing code 23 it should match the description. However code 23 is not very common in this system. Id ask if there was any work done recently or suggest looking at the wiring and simple stuff first.

Is code 33 is necesary change, Set 5 Switches 4WD Mitsubishi Pajero V60 Years 1999 - 2007 MR580151 /2/3 /4/5

[@davidg.9478]

Code 33 is one or more of the switches not reading correctly. If you change modes it might clear up, but if it keeps happening youll need to change a switch most likely. Avoiding 4LLC, does it go away in one of the other modes? If you can tell me what modes it goes away and faults in, we might be able to rule it to certain switches and you can first check the plugs.

@@davidg.9478 I send you a test video of each switch (Pajero V60 = Montero XLS o Montero Limited), in my case, I changed all the switches, they never failed me since 2003, and that's why I decided to change them all, and bought another set as a backup.

Hey David, I wanted to ask you about my car which is a 2006 Pajero,Whenever I switch the car to any type of 4WD the front light just keep Blinking and nothing happens and when i switch it to Low gear it just does the same thing but with the Dif Blinking too

[@davidg.9478]

Well, step 1 is to pull the codes. The front blinking lights is going to be one of the two main differential codes. I cover most of the causes for issues under the front of the truck in the video so i would start looking at that after you know which codes its throwing at you. The center light may be a result to the front lights blinking so i would put my efforts into fixing the issue causeing the front lights and then if its still blinking the center at you in low, then focus on addressing that.

what kind of bumper is that? is it custom?

Its a 72" wide Jeep JK bumper. The widest they make. And then i made custom bolt on mounts which are coincidentally simular to the ARB bumper mounts. Turned out really nice, i like it more then the ARB options.

mine continues to blink.... does that mean no codes

[@davidg.9478]

If you have the blinking center light, then there is a code. If jumping the OBD pins it continues to blink the same way instead of blinking you a code, then your pins are not jumped out correctly.

[@big4g63t]

@@davidg.9478 i jumped pin 8 with pin 4 and it just blinked a constant never ending or changing length or sequence.. the problem I'm having is after changing the solenoids because of partial engagement in 2wd but not 4wd(awd), now it won't fully engage in 4wd, i hear it but doesn't complete. I'm figuring it must be vacuum related. i checked the harness over the axle and it was clean, and i checked out the actuator on front diff and it was decently clean, nothing obviously broken
