How to replace the 4WD Actuator on the Transfer Case on GMC Sierra 1500?

The first step for replacing a transfer case encoder motor involves removing the transfer case shield and the front propeller shaft. Start by disconnecting both the transfer case switch electrical connector and encoder motor electrical connector before removing the encoder motor bolts to take out the encoder motor and finally the actuator insulator gasket. Defective encoder motors require manual shifting of the shift shaft to the neutral position at the transfer case using a crescent wrench for proper alignment. Set the new encoder motor into its correct position against the transfer case surface before tightening the bolts. Reposition the locating pins on the new encoder motor before adding the insulator gasket to the transfer case for new encoder motor installation. Tighten the encoder motor bolts in the specified sequence to 20 nm (15 ft. Lbs.)secure the electrical connection wires to the encoder motor and transfer case switch. Reinstall the front propeller shaft along with the transfer case shield as the final step of the procedure.
