gsi 4x4 light on

Post by cavaliersri »

hi folks.im back to nip your heads again.
my 4x4 light was staying on.i checked the fuse for power today and theres no power goin to it so i gave it a feed and now the 4x4 is working great.
the problem i have now is the light is on when ignition is on.when i start the car the light flashes continuously while the engine is on and when driving.
has anyone else experienced this.

although the car is driving in 4wd now the light flashing is doin my head in
if the bumpers dont scuff then it aint low enuf.
