To disable the AWD (All-Wheel Drive) disabled light, first ensure that the vehicle is in the correct driving mode, as some vehicles require specific settings for AWD to function properly. Check the owner's manual for instructions on resetting the system or turning off the AWD feature. If the light persists, it may indicate an underlying issue with the AWD system, and it's advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic.
No, it doesn't hurt, but why do it? If you have disabled the AWD, it won't be there when you need it, and disabling it does not affect things like gas mileage. The only time I would disable AWD would be if the car was being towed.
To turn off the AWD disabled light on a Buick Rendezvous, first ensure that the vehicle is in the correct operating mode by checking the AWD switch, which should be set to "Auto" or "On." If the light persists, it may indicate a malfunction in the AWD system, so checking for any diagnostic trouble codes with an OBD-II scanner can help identify the issue. Additionally, resetting the vehicle's computer by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes might clear the warning light, but if it remains, it's advisable to consult a mechanic.

The fuse amp doesn't matter since all you are doing is "completing the circuit" and therefore canceling the fwd function. The owners manual doesn't even specify which amperage to use...use whatever you have because you will see verification on your dash that the "FWD" light is on after you install the fuse, confirming you have disabled the awd feature.

If the AWD (all-wheel drive) disable light is on, it typically indicates a malfunction in the system, which could affect traction and handling, especially in adverse weather conditions. While it may still be safe to drive in dry conditions, it's advisable to have the issue checked by a mechanic as soon as possible to avoid potential safety risks. Driving with a malfunctioning AWD system can lead to uneven tire wear and handling issues.
The light can not be disabled. If it stays on, there is a failure in the system that will have to be repaired.
If the AWD has been disabled a light on the dash will indicate "FWD". Otherwise, if it drives smoothly and gives no indication of a problem, it is working. The Subaru AWD mechanism very seldom fails but when they do there will be no question that something is wrong. Enjoy your car.

The word "disabled" is correct when referring to someone with a physical or mental impairment. "Disable" is a verb meaning to deprive of capability or effectiveness.
