fluid.

Were any signs of leaking hydraulic fluid found?

Yes

Replace the RDM Pump/Motor O-rings. (Refer to 03 - Differential and Driveline/Rear Driveline Module/MOTOR,
Pump/Installation) .
Perform the TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Drivetrain
Control (DTCM) - Standard Procedure) .

No
