Does anyone no if the bad solder joints that were plaguing the full size
trucks on the 4x4 selector switch are inherent in the TB's also?  My wife's
truck occasionally can't make up it's mind on t-case positions..

TIA

No....with those vehicles it's far more likely that you
need a transfer case module and have it updated to the
latest software.  For whatever reason (unknown to me) the
2002 model year has to have a new module installed...other
years can simply be reflashed.

Thanks Ian.  Now I just need to get my wife to set an appointment...  She
gets worried that it doesn't work right, but not worried enough to schedule
an appointment!  sometimes wish I could uninstall Wife 1.0 and go back to
Girlfriend 6.0!  LOL!

Also, any idea what that's going to cost her, err... me?

A lot, if you pay for it.  I'd be pushing to get it done under
"goodwill".  It's a faulty module....with shitty software from
the factory....why the customer should pay for this is beyond
me.  And I'm talking from the perspective of someone who
prefers that the customer pays for stuff (I get paid more).
