Service Bulletin No.: PIP5098, Date: March, 2013 Subject: Service 4WD Message And DTC C0327 Models: 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado 2004-2012 GMC Canyon Equipped with 4WD The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI. Condition/Concern: Some customers may comment on a "Service 4 Wheel Drive" message displayed in the DIC. Technicians may find DTC C0327 stored current or history in the TCCM. Concern may be intermittent but customer may comment that happens mostly on initial drive cycle or several hours of sitting in cold or damp conditions. Concern may also be intermittent when attempting to shift into or out of 4WD. Recommendation/Instructions: Perform diagnostics outlined in service Information and if no root cause determined then inspect circuit 550 ground circuit for the transfer case encoder motor channel circuits. One suspect location is connector 2 terminal F7 in the under hood bussed electrical center. Check for proper terminal tension, corrosion, etc. Replace terminal if any concerns are found with the terminal. Usually this condition is easiest to duplicate under high electrical load conditions like starting the engine and shifting the transfer case.

Been reading the comments and someone mentioned contact cleaner. Normally the sort of corrosion you get on contacts has to be really bad on high current circuits you used to find on cars and usually resulted in terminally burnt contacts, but on modern cars with low current sensor circuits even mild corrosion can cause problems and contact cleaner might be a help. Sometimes just undoing and replugging a low current contact can be enough to make it work for a while, but contact cleaner and lubricants can correct it for much longer. I repair old electronics and computers for a hobby so this is knowledge born from experience!

My inexpensive Dongle OBD reader couldn't get the code neither could the local autostore. Upgraded to a OBDLinkMX+ and was able to erase the code. Truck shifted into 4wd with no issues afterward.

Eric, I have an 05 Chevy Suburban in which the “service 4wd” comes on every once in a while. I watched a couple of RU-vid videos on this error and learned that similar GMs all lead to that ground on the frame due to corrosion. For my model, I crawl underneath the body under the driver’s seat area and sand the ring terminals and frame then bolt it back together. Basically what you did but I sand the frame where they mount. Fixed again for a long while.

Something to keep in the back of your head with mechanical electrical contacts: things that aren't gold-plated need a couple milliamps or so going through them too keep them happy. So for something like this position switch, expect ~2--20mA current. 100mA would be a lot for this. In the industrial world, this is enough to light a low efficiency LED optocoupler, which is for us the typical case. I've seen bad designs that use much less than 1mA, but they all seem to date back into the 90's or 80's before electronic engineers got smarter.

Retired dentist here. For children the joint between the two halves of the palate are quite easy to separate with the expander. The child is still growing so as they say the joint has not fused or grown together. In an adult the joint has fused. So separation is very difficult and if expansion is done too quickly it can be quite uncomfortable. There is a procedure where the joint is opened surgically to make the orthodontic procedure a bit easier. 😮

Blowing the fuse is interesting. I've run into similar in general electronics. Chassis ground in some electronics is not the same always as circuit ground. Sometimes if you put a circuit ground onto a chassis ground or verse/visa weird stuff happens and things blow. It would be interesting to measure voltage and resistance between your 2 grounding points. Should be zero volts, zero ohms.
@wiley0714
@wiley0714 Год назад
That particular GPS unit which is an aftermarket accessory is designed to blow the starter fuse. It's designed that way so if somebody attempted to rip the module out so that vehicle cannot be found, i.e. stolen, then the vehicle cannot be started. The fuse was blown purposely to prevent the vehicle from being started when he picked up that module and caused the inertia circuit to send powered to disable the fuse. Just a FYI. That's a DEI python GPS.

This circuit "fixing" itself actually makes sense: as Eric explained these circuits use very tiny signals. He proved that by probing them with a 100mA lamp that failed to light up. So even the slightest bit of resistance in a connector will be able to disrupt the signals. Sometimes it's enough to simply unplug the connector and plug it in again to clean up the contacts enough to lower the resistance enough for the module to start functioning again. At other times the module might have gone into a kind of "don't know what's happening" state, where it simply can't "choose" which mode to be in. Back probing the signal wires alters each input's state in turn with a high-resistance load that may just be enough for the module to start detecting the inputs again and select a mode. Problem solved, although a thorough cleaning of the connectors with a special contact cleaner is advisable to prevent future problems.

I would be interested to see a scope trace on those encoder wires as the T case is being shifted through the different modes. Might show you if one of the encoder switches has a broken spring or something, randomly connects from time to time. Wiggling the wires while watching the scope too. If a wire is dodgy, you might see the noise when moving the problem area around. No replacement for seeing the live data with your own eyeballs. I had a vehicle that would very occasionally give an airbag light. Drove me nuts. Started pulling up live data graph whenever i'd drive somewhere, and found that the resistance of one of the driver's side airbag squibs was noisy and erratic once in awhile. Supposed to be a couple ohms, would occasionally spike to like 30 ohms. Pulled the airbag out, and the guys who rebuilt the vehicle from a previous crash had replaced the snap connectors for the airbag with used ones... and had just twisted the wires together and taped them, no solder no crimps. That was pointing at my face while I was driving (probably not going to go off uncommanded, but you don't mess around with shoddy wiring on SRS systems)!

And when conditions dried in a couple of days, the light would go away. I checked and cleaned connectors at the transfer case with no rhythm or reason to why would come on. But there was one time when one of my brake light didn’t work and I cleaned out a body connector towards the rear of the truck and I swear that kept the Svc 4wd light away for like a 1 1/2 years!

This video was quite entertaining. It was also educational, but mostly entertaining. Probably not what you want to hear Eric, but that's all I have.

In my job of 31 years, we saw fuses just get tired and wilt when they got old. No black residue to indicate any kind of overload blew them. Following the wire to look for chafing or other abnormalities was a wild goose chase, so we replaced the fuse and it lasted for many years after. Yeah, random fuse blows are weird but true, and very annoying.

Sorry Eric, but it was kinda funny to see you diagnose, then fix it with the magical touch and angry eyes. Keep up the great work!

2 oz. ice cold brandy every 10 minutes until swelling goes down worked for me. Popsicles work also. You moved around a lot of wires before the popped fuse. That one could come back to haunt you .

when you were reading off the diagnosis sheet it stated that only 2wd was available if a dtc was set. When you cleared the dtc syre enough it all worked. Maybe a 1 second blip on the atc?

Remember the old 4X4 turn hubs at wheels, put in neutral and shift to 4L or 4H . Unlock hubs and shift back to 2H. I can’t remember a time when any of my vehicles wouldn’t work. I’m sure they broke sometimes but not like this electronic stuff, though it is more convenient

Eric,,, my 2 cents, powers & grounds, ground fault circuits, you fixed one issue,shorted another , 22 gauge nitemare, burnt Crank circuit, maybe corrupt ground fault starter relay, more demand for ground, slow down, figure what you fixed, then while doing so, what you disturbed, you will get it ! Time to just , stop, rethink, your almost home ! 👍

I had the same problem with my Hummer H-3, that's mostly the same as the Colorado and after all the testing etc. I pulled the panel that holds the 4WD switches and found the plug loose for the switch block. It looks like the lock on the switch block is junk. I ended replacing the switches with a new upgraded one and all worked after. No more problems for the last 40k miles.
