I put it in 2wd and put encoder back on. Lights just flash on dash and then 4 low light stays on even though it's not in 4low. Obviously will not shift does nothing. And yes encoder still clicking even with truck off.

did you try the modes with the encoder removed from the tc? it may be out of phase or just a defective part

[richard wysong]

the clicking could be a stripped gear in the motor

That's what I was thinking also. I have also heard you are not supposed to run the encoder when it's not installed on the tc. I didn't put this one on so I am thinking I will try a different one.

I've heard that too but its possible some1 did and its out of phase now and where it doesn't work anyway its worth checking

[richard wysong]

did you have a chance to check it for tc codes? its a pretty simple system but it may shed some light on the problem

It is not showing any tc codes. I am going to try a new encoder. Thank you for you help

In my generation truck, you can't just plop in new encoder motors without calibrating them, you have to use a Tech-2.  What does your shop manual say?

What year to what year need to be programmed?

[Debeard77]

Still clicking after new encoder motor. Wiring?

[richard wysong]

maybe. did you try disconnecting the battery to reset the system?

Sure did. And not throwing any codes

[richard wysong]

also did you try the motor (old 1) off of the tc

[Debeard77]

Not sure what ur asking. The new one did what the old one did.
