    Well we need to check circuit integrity to be sure but it doesn't appear to have moved since there is no change in the limit switch voltages.

    To check circuit integrity of the limit switches you would need to ground DL2 (Pin 5 (Pink/Blue)) and ADD (Pin 3 (Light Green/Black)) at the ADD Actuator and verify that they go to 0v at the 4wd ECU and the DL1 goes to 12v with the ADD Actuator unplugged.

    2014 Tacoma SR5 4x4 DC SB V6 AT Tow Pkg Entune+ Mostly stock with a few OEM mods.
    Stock (99.999%) OEM Bed Floor Mat, Front Bed Rail Cargo Net and hooks, Auto-Dim mirror w/Compass and outside Temperature display, TRD Pro Grille, Uni-Filter air pump modification, WeatherTech floor liners f/r. OEM All-Weather floor mats (summer).
    I took quick look under there shows and the hose is good, (no splits or holes) but did show some rubbing in the area you referenced. I gently nudged it away little bit and slipped a small length of the black-plastic split wiring loom around the hose in that area.

    Follow up: The actuators snapped to and engaged quickly this morning when I tried them: no blinking or drama like yesterday. I had the drivers' door open and the actuators worked quickly and the front diff gave it's nice/loud metallic ring/clunk as it engaged.

    Guess they are just old and a little cranky now.... (kinda like the owner. :thumbsup:)
