any other specific info on what exactly did or did not happen?tough to say why something doesn't work without details. if 4wd light doesn't come on and it isn't engaging you may have an electrical prob, a 4wd unit issue, or both. it stands to reason that the indicator light probably didn't fail because of a mechanical prob. in the trans.but the trans didn't fail because of a light bulb.may be a linkage problem which would not allow 4wd to engage or let indicator light come on. i would check the linkage first. :mrgreen:
