What to do when your Silverado is stuck in 4WD Low?

When it was stuck in 4 low I would take out the fuse ( on left side of dash) for the four wheel drive and wait for a minute or so and it would reset itself. Had the switch replaced but that was not the problem. Took it to the dealer and it turned out to be an actuator. I dont remember but think it was close to 300 bucks to have them fix it.

How often should I switch my Silverado to 4WD?

It might be too low or bad. Lubrication is especially important if you won’t be switching your Silverado 1500 into 4DW on a regular basis. To avoid having your 4WD selector light come on and go off at random, it’s recommended that you switch your vehicle into 4WD at least once a month and properly maintain your transfer case fluid.

The switch panal lights for the 4×4 will not come on. Not a problem because I was in 2H. I had recenetly replaced the battery and the service light went out. I was not able to switch into 4H but was able to switch to 4Low. Upon doing this, the serives light came back on.

What happens when you switch from 2WD to 4WD on a Chevy Silverado?

If you don’t, certain vehicles will remain in 4wd regardless of the switch position and you’ll get the Service 4WD message in the info cluster until the code is cleared by the dealer.
