What a waste of time! No information provided during the video which makes this useless.

I have 2024 GMC 1500 and was looking a compustar car alarm $$$$ pretty costly I like the kill switch idea but would like to have a little more just to be safer 😊

What is your kill switch killing? And do you have a link? I like the kill switch that you can use to start remotely. I am the opposite of cold. I am in South Florida

You should also drive it a bit in each setting

Excellent tip! This absolutely will help keep everything in good condition. Use it or loose it

Does it work for all trucks

Where can I get this gone to my truck

I’d like to know how I can do the same thing

Thanks for showing us how and where to put the kill switch

Just got a new Laramie! I’d love to know more I’m also in Ontario!!!

That's why I own a land cruiser

Wow you don’t even drive with it on? Just buttons?

Taking my 2019 Ram 1500 in the dealer for this tomorrow. This is the 2nd time this problem has occurred. My friend recommended me to do this with shifting. He does it on his Chev.

I have made trip-wires attached with monofilament line; walk near it and you may set off the explosive charge.

Bor…. On wheels.😅

The 4wd actuator has failed in my 2022 ram 1500. It never changes mode and the serv 4wd light occasionally displays. I’m awaiting a new one to be shipped from the USA to Australia.

my 2005 ram works in 4 hi, but not in 4 low. the light flashes. what does that mean?

Sounds Great! What Kill Switch did you use? Where can I get one? You make no mention of that - so how does this video help us? Sure would be helpful to know.

What brand of lights did you get installed?

Wire your camera through headliner,down a pillar across under glove box into usb in center .....looks way better. 10' cord will get you there.

Post manufacturers. Long term review. The community always wants good parts recommendations. Especially with leds.

That’s a TRUCK YA

I don't have buttons or an automatic transmission, mine is equipped with a Millennial AntiTheft device 😁😁

Generally your manual will recommend you engage 4x4 once a month and drive a bit.

I use mine just to make sure it's working keep the fluids work moving every month and a half even if it's not snowing

That advice is not limited to just 4 wheel drive components. Anything you don’t regularly use should be exercised occasionally. Especially AC!

Promo sm ✌️

If I'm not mistaken, the Ram owners manual states you should engage 4WD while the vehicle is in motion in drive, not stopped or in neutral. I think it's meant to be engaged anywhere from 5 MPH to 55MPH if I remember correctly.

My 2016 Tundra manual says to drive 10 miles in 4WH every 1000 miles to keep everything lubricated. So I do that when driving straight down the highway, preferably on a rainy or snowy day.

Thats why I have a manual shift for 4wd .. never have to worry about the electronics and in 4wd immediately, no wait.

Do you know why the indicator light for 4WD Auto is green, and all the others are yellow?

I think you wanna drive a little also to lubricate the gears.

I engage mine every 3 months. I read that the actuator can seize up if not used. I was going to buy an old 4Runner to replace my old one for my off roading. The owner never engaged it. I tested it and sure enough. It never engaged. The owner took it to the dealership and they said the actuator is seized and will likely need it replaced because they can’t re-engage it. That’s an $800 repair…

I wait til thunderstorm run in 4 hi. 13miles min. Every month. Lube it up and know whats going on.

In short, Use it or lose it.

I had a issue with my 4WD in my Envoy. Bad bearing in right side of the front axle. Solution remove the axle. Still have a locking rear axle and hi/lo ratios. Just load 150 lbs of salt and Kitty liter in the back and go. As long as the snow is not touching the frame. At that point it is time to wait for the plow or fire up the snow mobile. The old Crew Cab 82 300 CI I-6 also did not do well when the snow touched the frame. Snow does drift and 3 tons does not ride on top of it. Had a use for a snowmobile then and still do.

You aren't actually a mechanic, are you? And you don't even do your own oil changes, do you?

I would engage it and drive it a little bit. Just to push buttons makes no sense to me. I throw mine on every once in a while and drive maybe a half mile.

common sense use it or loose it just like your own body move around our loose your motion

This video is just a poorly done (lousy speaker) vain show off of how your kill switch works. It offers nothing of value to the viewer such as what kill switches to use, how to get them installled, etc. Glad you're proud of your kill switch. Meantime your viewers have gained nothing from this poorly done video by a poor speaker.

This is some wise advice! It makes sense, if you don't use it you lose it. It is good to make sure all of your accessories are in working order!

have an 89, run my 4x4 once a week

You just cycle though but don't drive at all in 4 high, 4 low, all wheel and back to 2 wheel ?

3 different anti theft you have. Kill switch, dash cam, and gps?

Can u always run it on 4wd auto? Or it should always be 2wd?

At the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man ( which i am ) there is something to be said about the old systems. One would lock the freewheeling hub, grab that shorter stick coming thru the floorboard and shift into 4. Good to go.

Seems like an intelligent human here. You musta won that dodge in a raffle or something. Free is free I guess.

We have a 2003 yukon and 2006 envoy , never had 4wd issues by using this method. Even though we live in GA where rarely needed still do this monthly
