4X4 Shift Motor Rebuild
This is a general how-to thread for fixing the transfer case shift
motor for the 4X4 models. Many posts on this site have been great
sources of information, but pictures are worth thousands of words. I
wanted to put something up for people to point others to when they have
4X4 problems. So here am going to list some key words to help the
searchers:
Transfer Case Electric Shift Motor 4X4 4x4 4WD 4wd 4X Borg Warner 13-54
BW1354 BW13-54

First thing is where is that 4X4 shift motor�? You have to crawl
underneath and look at the back of the transfer case (which is behind
the transmission).

Before taking the motor off and taking it apart I strongly suggest doing the
'ol tap it with a hammer (very gently) trick while someone is pushing the
button. It worked for me (once, anyway).
