Why does my shift linkage keep falling off?

Why does my shift linkage keep falling off?

As the title says, the linkage keeps falling off. My truck has the floor shift for the transfer case. About a year ago I went to put it into 4wd and the shifter just had free play.

Is there an update to the shift linkage?

There is an updated linkage available at the dealer. I have pursued that avenue as well, and they don’t have anything. Its hard to believe that a wear item on the truck cant be replaced and that when the plastic ends wear out, your left with climbing under the truck.

What do I need for a manual shift truck?

I would need all associated wiring, electronic buttons, the NP263 transfer case as the NP261 is otherwise identical but manual shift, and I don’t know what kind of reprogramming the computer might or might not need. I would rather climb under the truck for the next 4 years (time I anticipate ownership) than spend the couple thousand it would take.

When to use transfer case shift control module?

If no buttons are pressed, and the transfer case shift control module detects a voltage level outside the possible range (approx. 0.5-1.0 volts) for longer than 5 minutes, the transfer case shift control module will set this DTC if a button is held down or sticks for a period longer than 5 min- utes.

Why is my 4WD not working on my Chevy Silverado?

When shifted out of 4wd, the switch opens up and no voltage goes to the actuator. I would check voltage at the connector for the front actuator (at the front differential – it looks like a large bullet that threads into the front diff.) If it has 12 volts, the actuator is the problem.
