1992 pajero 2wd/4wd switch placement??

[zen]

as above..diesel 2.5 auto

wheres the switch? found 5 on transfer box..its not the same as one on tech info (cos thats a 98)

i have lost the earth to the vac solenoids to control front diff..but which switch controls them?there are 3 close to each other at the rear 1 at the front and i think another at the rear on its own..atleast 2 have the same colour wires..ie yellow/blue(maybe green)help..need to sell this and want everything working..

thanks

I'm not sure the switches control the solenoids directly - I believe they go through an ECU, which also drives the dash lights.

Either way, the switch in question would be the 2wd/4wd switch, but I don't know which one that is.

if the wiring dia is correct for my model(dia in tech info) then yes its the 2wd/4wd switch..this i know..but which one is it??

will take some pics tomorrow,maybe that will help identify the one..

i can manually make it all work by giving the solenoids an earth so i know the problem is wiring to switch/switch problem..

On a super select t/case you have 5 detent switches.
3 at the back =
- brown (centre diff lock position) - separate detent ball & spring
- black (4wd position switch) - separate detent ball & spring
- white (high/low switch) - separate detent ball & spring
2 at the front =
- brown (centre diff locked state switch) - built in spring loaded ball
- black (2/4wd switch) - built in spring loaded ball
The colours are the actual tops of the switches when installed.
I believe you will be after the black one at the front of the t/case.

problem sorted...broken wires at connectors going to switches..
thanks for help bitsamissin..info supplied confirmed!

though getting to connectors was a nightmare!so much so i cut the wires and ran new wires to switches...all the dsah lights work as they should now...
