Default 4 wheel drive indicator
When I put the truck in 4 wheel drive high the indicator light flashs on but does not stay on. The 4 wheel drive is engaged but the indicator does not stay on. Can someone give me some information on this?

2007. The 4 wheel drive seems to work fine. In snow or mud it make a huge differance.

Did you have the dealer do the work or a private shop.
