I replaced the Transfer case switch. I hear no noise when trying to turm dial to 2wd. Only light that will come on the dial is 4wd high. I have disconected baterrie put into newtral then tried the past 4 low to take it to newtral but it just stays in 4wd high.  would my next best bet be to buy a new transfer case motor?

Just guessing but your TC Actuator is not working. Could be a bad ground, bad connection or bad actuator. Just my opinion

There was a TSB for this a long time ago, but unfortunately I don't have the number anymore.

Ask your local GM dealer to look through the system for it (doesn't have to be a GMC dealer - just any GM dealer service department).

This is what ChatGPT replied with when I asked for the tsb:

 

GM TSB / Service Update Bulletin Number: 14616
Also referenced as: Service Update for “Service 4WD” Message – Transfer Case Stuck in 4WD HI
This bulletin addresses vehicles equipped with RPO NQH transfer case and provides a procedure to reprogram the transfer case control module to help resolve the stuck-in-4WD issue.

I am having the same issue. I did Lean how to manually take it out of 4wd. I replaced the transfer case motor, did the reset sequence and it has not helped my issues. but now rather than being stuck in 4wd and im 2 wheel and cannot get into 4wd.

 

When i took off the old transfer case motor, I heard a loud clunk when i pulled it off. Now the same 4wd light is lit but its actually only in 2wd

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
