4wd wont disengage

[dai-hard]

hi i got a f75 rocky with the (pss) 4wd button on the dash. .
went out to appin the other day and had a cool bash.Got back to the road and no 2wd . Got it home and found the vacum switch was not working.
Diahatsu (peter warren) want $186.00 + gst
So does anyone have any ideas on where else to get this sort of stuff aftermarket. its a simple 12v vac switch.


cheers craig

Ripp it all out and weld a lever in there

Dont think you'd have much luck with aftermarket, try a decent spare parts place - not like repco or sumthing. Or a daihatsu wrecker.

When you say switch is it just like button switch thing that you press?? Just go to jaycar and buyt any old switch and wire it up

Yer i wish i could the older type on the lever is a lot better.
dont know why they changed it. .
The switch on the dash works ok but it has a vacum actuator in the transfer to change from 2wd/4wd. there are 2 vac switches on the transfer
1 for 2wd 1 for 4wd. one switch was stuffed and at $180 ea i thought i would have a go at pulling it apart.
inside to switch the ports were blocked and the magnet was rusty.
Cleaned it all out put it back together and it all works cool


thanks for the info

craig.
ps the dudes at dai-care are cool
