4 wheel drive problem - Prado

Post by Bird »

Hi

I am new to 4 wheel drive vehicles. Have a Prado. Seems the 4 wheel drive is disengaged - a little orange light is on with a x between front and back axles on the picture.

How to I sort this?

Thanks

What year Prado mate? there is a big difference between the old & the new.

If it's a new one that's probably your centre diff lock. You want that light off when on road, there should be a button somewhere with a similar symbol that switches it on & off. If you get stuck (or think you are about to) offroad try switching it back on

Cheers

If it breaks, build it stronger.
If it doesn't break, drive it harder.
