Transfer Case Actuator: Description and Operation
Operation
OPERATION
Shifting in the transfer case occurs when a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) voltage is supplied to the shift motor by the Final Drive Control Module
(FDCM). A linear analog position sensor located inside the shift motor, provides the FDCM with the motors' angular, rotational position. With this
information, the FDCM continuously knows the motors' position, and therefore allows it to accurately control the motors' operation, including voltage
polarity which is used to control motor direction.
