4wd Computer Reset not

Hi Mike,
I have the infamous "buttons don't work" for the 4wd. I have pulled the 4wd Fuse for 30 sec, then the 5 x key turn, and voila, it works, but only until the next time I turn off the vehicle and turn back on.
Any thoughts on what would cause the "Reset" to be temporary?
Thanks, Brian

    There were initial comments regarding this by "mike".
    I was hoping he could further answer my issues with his fix.

    4wd HI does not engage.


    Upon removing the 4wd fuse for 30+ sec, then running the 5 x Ignition Key Cycle, 4wd HI works, but only until the next time the car is started, at which point I must repeat the TCCM reset sequence detailed above.


    2 wheel and 4wd LO work as normal.

    this is caused by the engagament motor sensor contacts or the motor itself.

Having worked at a GM dealership I saw this problem many times. While it is true that the vacuum actuator and switch are very common problems, the problem you are having is due to the encoder motor on the transfer case. This was also a rather common problem on the earlier S series. Unfortunatly the encoder motors are rather expensive and are more than just a 15 min job to install.

I just changed the oil in my vue and don't know how to reset the change oil light

If you open the hood and pull the fuse panel cover. With the ignition switched on (key on, engine off), press the red button in the underhood fuse panel for at least 5 whole seconds. The may flash a few times but then go off. Now you're reset.

I just got a new switch for my 4 wheel drive and it will light up for a second and switch to 4 wheel then go right back to 2 wheel

First check your fuses there is a ATC fuse and 4wd fuse. If they are both good try resetting the 4wd computer. To reset pull out both the ATC and courtesy lamp fuses for at least one minute then reinstall both fuses then cycle the key on and off 5 times. 1 cycle = key on and off.
