ABSTRACT:
A clutch control system for the front wheel drive clutch of a four-wheel drive vehicle engages the front wheel drive clutch when both service brakes are simultaneously released or simultaneously applied, but disengages the clutch when only the left or the right service brake alone is applied. The control system includes three brake-operated switches, a manually-operated switch and a speed responsive switch connected to the solenoid of a front wheel drive clutch control valve.
