  1. the actuator is new... all. three lights back on think. i am. going to. have to take it in still saying code 5208 "voltage supply shifting motor signal not available permanent
  2. changed the module and how weird if this only got the 4x4 light and drove and the others stayed off... then tired to reset the actuator and risistor and then the voltage fault came up again and is permanent so weird might, going to change out the new risistor with my old one and if that fails change the actuator for the old one too. beginning to the new actuator is faulty
  3. thanks mate will do that... the fuses hasnt blown again but i think that is because i havent got power to it.... looked at the connections to the module in the boot lookedokay and made no difference so thinking its the one under the car. got a second hand module for £20 so. seeing if that makes a differnce when it gets here

  5. hello all. just changed out my trans case actuator and then reset the resitor and calibrated the actuator too using my dephi tool. it worked fine i checked oporation with tool aswell heard the actuator runing but now i have the above code 5208 "voltage supply shifting motor signal not available permanent" i have tired to activate the actuator and reset the calibration but says oporation failed. read somewhere it might be a pin loose on the plug i checked the plug on the actuator and the module in the boot no damage. unplugged them all and put them back got control of the actuator and reset it and resistor. fuse 26 then blew its a 7.5 and now have the same issue. thinking its the module gone in the boot anybody had similar issues
