$31 I guess your dealer wants to get rich! I hope it fixes yours as well! I am super happy mine is fixed but I am really upset at the dealer shouldn't they have known what was wrong? They charged me $25 done nothing and lied about what was wrong...I will never go back there. Did I just go to a bad dealer or was this something that they would not have known about? I dont guess it matters now....

I dont think the counter people in the parts department are mechanics though.

I actually took it to the service department and had them work on it...they said it was in the transfer case and it was a big deal to fix so they charged me $25 to look at it...That is what I meant....they should have known it was the switch at the dealer when I took it to them and said to fix it! That is how I found the forum and got it fixed... I ordered the part from somewhere else(I really will not go back there)....I just told them what I needed...I am upset that they had no knowledge or interest in fixing it! However you guys were great!!!!!

Yep blowing off some steam! I hope you guys know I am upset with the dealer...not you guys....I read the post and it sounded a little crude ....I am so happy it is fixed!

I really did not care about the $25 but for them not to fix it or even attempt to is really unacceptable in my eyes....if they would have tried that would be another story....I really dont think they looked at it honestly....And if this forum knew about the switch it would look like the mechanics would know or it would be on the oasis or whatever computer info they use....Oh well at least with everyones kind help It works again!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!

Think of it this way, it only cost you $25 to find this site then! I'd have paid that several times to come up with a solution!

Just got my oil switch in today and that also fixed my 4 wheel drive. Thanks to everyone who provided the great advise.
