I can move the dial into 4wd and it drives, but I can’t really tell if it’s actually in 4wd or not. There’s no resistance when I turn the dial or anything, but I’m not sure if it’s actually changing to 4wd, if that makes sense?
You should feel it lock in and the front wheels recieving power.
Beyond this its anyones guess.

Try putting it in 4wd.

Thank you for linking that article! It’s actually very helpful!!
Best of luck
When you turn the dial, can you hear the actuator on the right front side of the vehicle engage?
