Scan Tool Output Controls

Output Control Description
Refer to the scan tool manual for complete scan tool operating instructions.
2WD High Indicator Light This function allows the technician to command the 2WD high indicator light, within the transfer case shift control switch, on or off.
4WD High Indicator Light This function allows the technician to command the 4WD high indicator light, within the transfer case shift control switch, on or off.
4WD Low Indicator Light This function allows the technician to command the 4WD low indicator light, within the transfer case shift control switch, on or off.
ATC Motor A Control This function allows the technician to energize the motor, causing it to shift the transfer case through all five modes. Motor control A moves in the opposite direction as motor control B.
ATC Motor B Control This function allows the technician to energize the motor, causing it to shift the transfer case through all five modes. Motor control B moves in the opposite direction as motor control A.
Auto 4WD Indicator Light This function allows the technician to command the auto 4WD indicator light, within the transfer case shift control switch, on or off.
Engage Front Axle This function allows the technician to engage and disengage the front axle actuator. When the front axle actuator is engaged, the front axle becomes a live axle, causing the front propshaft to turn.
Neutral Indicator Light This function allows the technician to command the neutral indicator light, within the transfer case shift control switch, on or off.
Transfer Case Lock This function allows the technician to turn the transfer case lock on and off. With the transfer case lock on, the transfer case cannot be shifted.
