Noise was occurring on acceleration from about 15-20MPH under load. Noise was coming from the LF wheel area. Noise went away when vehicle was engaged in 4X4….

Nair seen video like dat….where ya put tha camera.?
I mounted the camera to the lower control arm. I forgot to mention that
also on hard acceleration sometimes the traction control light comes on and
there is reduced power. I should monitor wheel speeds and see what is going
on there.
It probably normal for light ta come on when ya juicing it. Just can’t come
to terms on whA dat is. Maybe calipers, maybe a bearing. Throw a hub on the
left while ya doing the caliper. Find problemo thru doing. Sometimes doing
do do is the way to a bingo. Dat laugh was nice last night but me think dat
laugh is tha one ya do before all hell breaks loose….hehheheehe
Resolved: Found vacuum leak near 4X solenoid causing low vacuum under
acceleration and partial engagement of LF hub and resulting noise.
It’s the IWE trying to engage the left front wheel due to vacuum loss when
the engine vacuum is low ( under acceleration ) No squirrels were injured
during the filming of this video
@franzjimenez1 The solenoid is located against the firewall behind the
battery. Corrosion from the battery can erode the plastic lines also water
can leak into the solenoid from around the hood area. Put a vacuum pump on
the line from the solenoid to the IWE hubs and see if it hold vacuum first.
Also a gauge connected to supply vacuum source should have manifold vacuum
at idle. Good luck!
Where is that solenoid located? I have the same same thing happening on a
2003 .
Me made a tip on Mitchell bouts this Tim. Hope dat ok wid ya. Put it all
over tha place. Maybe help the troops ya know. Dr.Jake,aye.
