Where is the four-wheel drive control module located on the Fengjun 5?
2 Answers
The four-wheel drive sensor of the Great Wall Fengjun 5 is installed on the transfer case, located under the hood, at the upper left corner of the engine. Here is some relevant information about the Fengjun 5: Engine horsepower: The Fengjun 5 is produced by Great Wall Motors, classified as a pickup truck. It is equipped with a 2.4L L4 engine with natural aspiration, delivering a maximum horsepower of 160ps and a maximum torque of 230nm. Suspension type: The Fengjun 5 has dimensions of 5095mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1740mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3050mm. It features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a leaf spring non-independent rear suspension, with hydraulic power steering.
I used to drive the Great Wall Wingle 5 (Fengjun 5) off-road frequently. Its 4WD control module is conspicuously located right under the dashboard near the driver's seat, fixed to a metal bracket on the right side of the accelerator pedal. Why was it designed there? Primarily for proximity to the driver—shorter signal wires enable faster 4WD switching response. For instance, when you press the 4WD button during rain or on sandy terrain, the system reacts instantly. Once, a friend's 4WD failed due to this module being loosened by rough terrain vibrations. While its accessible position makes inspection easy, avoid DIY disassembly to prevent accidental wire damage. Regular dust wiping prevents corrosion, and post-off-roading, ensure no mud/sand jams the module to maintain functionality. A faulty module may cause the 4WD indicator light to malfunction or flicker—always consult professional mechanics for repairs to guarantee driving safety. Though easy to locate, handle with care during checks to avoid damaging adjacent components.
