I have a 2016 P1000 and am having some trouble shifting into 4 wheel drive. I live in MN and it has been cold, very cold, so I'm not sure if my problem is everything is so stiff from the cold or something else. When I try to move the control lever into four wheel drive it shows on the dash that it is in 4 wheel drive, however the dash lever doesn't move completely into the four wheel drive slot like it does when the weather is warmer. All the wheels are turning like in four wheel drive, but I'm just not sure if it is locked into 4 wheel. Should I believe what it shows on the dash or is there an adjustment to make sure it is actually going into 4 wheel? Thanks.

When you say under the bed do you mean under the floorboards?

I think it’s called the shift linkage box you can see the cables going in and out of the box like I said when I raise my bed it’s right there on the frame in front of the rear tire can’t miss it
