about to give up with my 4wd! help!

i am still having problems trying to figure out what is wrong with my 4 wheel drive in my 2007 tacoma. i have taken it to two shops and they we4re unaible to figure it out as well. when i engage my truck into four wheel drive the light flashes but truck does not engage. i can hear and i checked that the front actuater is working. i followed the wiring and found nothing, but i am starting to lean towards in being a broken wire.....any suggestions?

Is your transfer case actuator (not your front ADD) working?

 

truck is automatic, it wont even shift into 4 high. the four wheel drive light just flashes.

 

yeah, numerous times.

 

My 2006 tacoma did what you described it was the actuator.
Toyota put a new one on (warranty).
4WD flashed would not go into 4HI.
Eventually 4LO stopped working too.
Luckily it worked one more time (4LO) before failing to get me out of a jam.
The part was pricey.
I hope you can figure it out without having to buy one.

 

when i put the truck in four low it starts to flash and beep. im going to look into it a bit more tonight, see what i can find. i believe the front drive shaft is locking though. and unfortunetly toyota screwed me over with the warranty so i will be paying for it. but need to get it fixed where i live.

 

4Lo won't kick in unless you're in 4Hi, fully stopped, and in neutral. It will stop flashing/beeping when engaged.

 

Since you're having trouble getting into 4Hi, it stands to reason that 4Lo won't engage as well

 

yea woops brain fart on my part lol
