Detailed Description
The Standard Ignition TCA-42 is designed for vehicles that use a 4WD indicator switch to communicate transfer case or drivetrain status to the instrument panel. Its connector and terminal configuration are specified to align with the original vehicle setup, helping maintain proper electrical continuity in the indicator circuit.

Confirm the 4WD indicator circuit functions correctly after installation.
