Last week I took the wifes KJ out for some late night wheeling, fun fun. Some rocks, nothing too bad, mostly heavy woods and a little mud...almost got it stuck on one of my quad trails right behind the house! All was well except that now when it's in 2wd the 4wd light stays on. When you throw it into 4 high, it goes off. Funny, no? Wife didn't think so, haha. I'm assuming that it must be a short or cut wire or something of the sort. I'm wondering if anyone can point me towards the best place to look to start off? Anyone had a similar issue? I'm sure it's just a minor wiring thing, must have gotten smooshed on a rock or something? I'm nowhere near as familiar with the KJ as I am with the XJ, so can anyone point me in the right direction? I appreciate it! Thanx. |

Transfer case position switch. Mine was like that for about 6 months. Fixed itself about a month ago. Its just an indicator, does not affect the function at all. |

actually, mine is the exact same way now. it was like that a year ago, when i had my front drive shaft replaced, Now, its like that again after getting my Transmission rebuilt. Correct, just a switch. Actually if you take off all your paneling between the seat, you can fix it there. No big deal tho. It will go away eventually |

thanx for the replies. I know it's just a sensor and that we're all set but was just wondering how to fix it. Is the sensor itself right at the lever?? What can I do to the sensor?? That's strange that it just fixes itself!! |
