Hey all,

So I've replace the solenoids and freewheel switch, and still get the flashing CDL. My next step is to test the transfercase switches per this site: http://www.pajeroclub.co.za/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=2077

A few questions though: 1. Should I have the ignition on when I do this?

Not sure.

2) How do I go about checking the continuity? Do I put one lead of my multimeter on the pin in the switch and the other to the transfer case or what?

No.

The connector should have 2 pins.

Put your multimeter (analog one is easier to read for this) on resistance measurement (ohms) or the Omega symbol.

Put one test lead on each of the connector pins.

The meter should read either 0 or infinite ohms.

With the multimeter leads still in place depress the switch. It should now read the opposite the opposite of what it read before you triggered the switch.

Additionally, with it reading 0 ohms, wiggle the wires around at the switch and the connector while checking if it changes the original reading. If it does, then you may have an intermittent open in the wires. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
