Testing Continuity

Disconnect 4WD/2WD shift switch connector. Using ohmmeter, check continuity between terminals "A" and "C" on switch side of connector. See Fig 2 . With switch released, no continuity should exist. With switch activated (held to left), there should be continuity. If not as specified, replace switch assembly.
