5. Check to make sure the coil
t
is seated in the U-
shaped
y
insert that is pressed into the gearcase
cover
u
. The top of the coil should be seated below
the U-shaped insert. The U-shaped insert controls
the pole gap. If the top of the coil is above the
surface of the U-shaped insert it raises the armature
plate, thereby increasing pole gap. If the pole gap
increases the coil will not be strong enough to
engage the AWD system. If this is found, replace the
cover plate assembly.

rollers must slide up, down, in and out freely within
the roll cage sliding surfaces and H-springs.
