In some vehicles, it is possible to reset the four-wheel drive service light by turning on the ignition, but not starting the car. The gas pedal should be pushed repeatedly a few times. Alternatively, a dealership can reset the light.
why is my service 4 wheel drive light on on my 2008silverado
The light that comes on when 4 wheel drive is engaged is not the service light. It is just an indicator light that comes on to let you know the 4 wheel drive is engaged. It will go off when the 4 wheel drive is disengaged.
To reset the 'Service 4-Wheel Drive' light on a 2002 Chevy Trailblazer after a battery died, you can try disconnecting the negative battery terminal for about 10-15 minutes, then reconnect it. This can sometimes reset the system and clear the warning light. If the light remains on, you may need to use an OBD-II scanner to check for any diagnostic trouble codes and clear them. If issues persist, consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.
After service light appears, push reset button located behind steering wheel to the left next to mileage. Press reset button 3 times to select and confirm a service. The control arrows are located on steering wheel to the left.
If you turn the key on, not started, press the gas pedal 3 times. The service light should flash 3 times. Turn the key off and then start the vehicle and the light should go out.
sounds like you need to get your transfer case looked out..I would take it in if you haven't already. As for turning if off, reset your ECU
