tion Indicator Light” for the selected position will stop
flashing and remain ON.

current position will remain ON.
2. The newly selected “Transfer Case Position Indicator
Light” will continue to flash.

NOTE: Before retrying a selection, make sure that all of
the necessary requirements for selecting a new transfer
case position have been met. To retry the selection, turn
the control knob back to the current position, wait five
seconds, and retry selection. To find the shift require-
ments, refer to the ЉShifting ProcedureЉ for your transfer
case, located in this section of the Owner’s Manual.
The “Service 4WD Warning Light” monitors the electric
shift four-wheel drive system. If this light remains on
after engine start up or illuminates during driving, it
means that the four-wheel drive system is not function-
ing properly and that service is required.
WARNING!
Always engage the parking brake when powering
down the vehicle if the ؆Service 4WD Warning Light”
is illuminated. Not engaging the parking brake may
allow the vehicle to roll which may cause personal
injury.
NOTE: Do not attempt to make a shift while only the
front or rear wheels are spinning. This could cause
damage to driveline components.
