Hey y'all,
I have installed a transfer case from what I was told a 2001 D2 with CDL into my 03 discovery. (current build)
from what I am gathering the neutral safety switch is in the shifter handle of the 03 and the 01 xfer case is on the front output shaft with a lead of 2 wires. This leaves me not being able to shift into low as the ECU is not sensing a safe signal from the Xfer case. (that's if the solenoid is good)
Is there anyone with any experience to just run two wires extended to connect or is it a matter of taking the solenoid out completely due to a incompatibility.

Thanks in advance

 

A lot of guys take the solenoid out completely even without your situation. It can fail, and leaves you stranded. I still have mine on my '01, so I am not going to be any help on the re-wiring idea. Thanks for reminding me though, that may have to be my weekend little project coming up.

 

Thanks Rover Hokie,
I figured that would be the answer to the situation. Was very curious as to the wiring trying to make it easier than pulling out a solenoid but rather put a new one in and use as intended. Good luck with your project, I am going to go ahead and try the wiring idea and see what I can burn out.

 

What t-case shifter are you using to control your new t-case CDL?

 

I just unplugged mine and removed it on the 99 and everything works fine. Fortunately I was stuck in high range instead of low. It would be B&^CH to be stuck in low range 100 miles from home.
