Ive done the cluster self check and the light still does not illuminate which means its in the cluster itself right or could it still be the senser on the t-case. its a 05 hemi 1500 btw

 

how do you do a cluster check on an 04? I also want ot get my 4x4 light to work. and I want to check make sure it isnt the sietch in the manual 4x4.

 

Mine is an 05 but should still work...press and hold the trip meter button then turn the ignition to on but dont start the truck and let go of the button.

At the end of the test it will display C-Code and any codes stored if no codes you will get C-Code 00 00

Btw Is u seach any of weedahoe's posts he has a link where u can download a service manual for ur truck

 

Yep, the links are in my signature. Feel free to download and do the checks

 

So can anyone confim my suspitions or no?

 

mine does this too, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It seems to work more ever since I lifted it. Not sure of the reason either cause the light obviously works. It must be a bad relay or switch that is intermittent. Either way you can tell if it is working cause 2wd in snow = no go, 4wd in snow = go anywhere

 

I had the identical problem, it was a simple and cheap fix. The part is called position sensor, cost about 32 bucks and took 15 minutes to replace. The sensor goes in the front of the transfer case. Make sure the oil ring is reinstalled.

 

Yes I know where the sensor is and how to replace it... What im trying to do is figure out why the 4WD light still doesn't light when I do the trucks self diagnostic because as far as I know it still should and why it doesnt? Thus I dont think its the sensor

 

what are the chances of it being the light...very slim
my guess is the sensor,very common problem..I replaced mine,too

 

When you say position sensor, is it the Crankshaft Position sensor (CKP) or the Camshaft Position sensor (CMP)? I may just be lost all together.
