The “SERVICE 4WD” warning light monitors the electric
shift 4WD system. If this light remains on after engine
start up or illuminates during driving, it means that the
4WD system is not functioning properly and that service
is required.
WARNING!
Always engage the parking brake when powering
down the vehicle if the Service 4WD light is
illuminated. Not engaging the parking brake may
allow the vehicle to roll which may cause personal
injury.

front or rear wheels are spinning. This could cause
damage to driveline components.
