Shift Motor Braking
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Pickup and 2004 Dodge Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Two modes of shift motor braking are employed to improve shift performance, static and dynamic. Static shift motor braking is utilized under the following conditions:
- Whenever the transfer case is in the 2WD/AWD or 4L 'D' channel position.
- Whenever an invalid mode sensor code is present.
Static motor braking is achieved by applying +12V on both shift motor wires.
NOTE: Static Shift Motor Braking is independent of ignition key position.
