A leak in the vacuum pressure pipes is he cause why the green "wheel lock" light in a Mitsubishi L200 4WD Diesel pickup truck is the cause why it's on continuously.

In a friends case the vacuum pressure supply pipe of the switch for slightly higher stationary revs (prob for AC) is leaking. The small rubber pipe is worn by the power brake vacuum pipe due to engine vibrations. When this pipe is leaking there is no vacuum for switching off the front hubs, hence the green "wheel lock" light on the dashboard. Consequently the front axle rod keeps turning.

See the related links for a picture of the malfunction.

Why does your Hyundai Santa Fe make a whining noise while driving?

A whining noise in your Hyundai Santa Fe while driving could be caused by several factors, such as a worn or failing serpentine belt, which may produce a high-pitched sound as it slips or rubs. It could also indicate issues with the transmission, like low fluid levels or internal wear. Additionally, problems with the power steering pump or wheel bearings can contribute to whining noises. It's best to have a qualified mechanic diagnose the issue to prevent further damage.

Check the power steering pump for the cause of the noise. I sounds like the pump is causing the whining and is either low on fluid or possibly going bad.
