Ok, my AWD is acting up. It started binding a couple months ago. I got it to disengage and pulled the plug on the encoder motor. Ran fine since then but I did need a new hub. Just replaced that and the sensor. Hooked up the motor to test and it engaged after a few turns...can't get it out of awd mode now. Mostly certain the motor is shot. Going to take a few weeks until I can pinpoint the problem and buy the parts. In the meantime, how can I force the t case back into 2nd mode? Can I just rotate the shift shift with vise grips? If so how do I know I'm turning the right way with markings on the case?
