FX4 shift on the fly knob

[Maurilio]

Hello I was wondering if anyone is having this issue. I have a 19 ranger with the fx4 package and when ever the knob for the 4x4 is physically cold I can’t press the TM button or shift into 4x4. After running the heater for a while and the knobs physically warms up I can use it normally, anyone else have this issue? Should I just replace the knob?

How much soda did you spill on it?

My selector works as it should in all weather conditions - I do not have TM option but it works to select 4x4 or 2WD, sometimes accidentally when I’m monkeying around trying to retrieve my wallet or sunglasses from that forward cubby. ? Maybe it needs a good cleaning.

Bought it used ? didn’t notice the issue till the cold weather

Probably soda. Gets very sticky when it’s cold.

Thank you ? I’m going to go ahead and clean it out.

That was my question...

I'm with others here thinking you got some moisture in there from water, soda or whatever beverage you like in there. When cold it's most likely freezing. A pain yes but what it is

i had that problem with a window switch, had to really mash that sucker to get the window up and down. turns out the 44 ounces of big red i spilled during an emergency slam on the brakes was the culprit.
