If you look at the RAVE, there is a high/low switch on the transfer case. It could have gone bad, though I'm not sure what else the issue could be.

Is there supposed to be a light illuminated on the dash when one shifts into Low range? My t-case neutral light/ping comes on, but I don't have a low-range indication. Haven't tried HDC.

Do you have 3 amigos? if yes, HDC no workie.

The trio haven't come to visit...yet. TC works fine. When I put into low range and activate Down Hill Desent control it bings like I'm still in high range.

I had a similar situation on my '02 Disco. Looked underneath, and there is a sensor switch, for lack of a better term, on the T-case which tells the system that the t-case is in low. The electrical connectors had gotten a bit corroded. I pulled them off, cleaned them up, etc., and no more ding-ding-ding, and everything worked.

hmm, i don't think mine activates unless it is, but I dont care and never use it. it is a recipe for disaster when it cuts out and you are flying down a bumpy hill with no brakes because the abs is going buck wild.
