    I have the same problem. except mine only does it on right hand turns. Advance auto has a switch for $60. Is this an easy do it yourself job/ I figure if I can take the dash apart to change the bulbs, this shouldn't be that difficult.

    Mine kind of does the same thing, except my gauge never makes it to the midway marker, when I accelerate it drops back to the bottom of the normal range. Under steady driving it stays a tad above the normal marker. Should I change my thermostat?

    wtf is up with my front axel and 4wd

    speed sensors they cost like $35 each. from what i have read on here, the rear one you can change easily. for the front, you have to remove the transfer case motor. I am still a newbie here.

    wtf is up with my front axel and 4wd

    do a search on here for 4wd lights. I just had to replace mine, and I got 6 blinks. The dealer charged $350 for the motor and $105 for the front speed sensor, installed. If you are handy, you can do it yourself and save some $$$$$. I didn't have the tools and time to do it.

    wtf is up with my front axel and 4wd

    shift motor needs cleaning/replacement, or your speed sensors need cleaned/replaced. How many times do the lights blink?

    replacing warning lights

    Is there a simple way to do this, or are they attached to the instrument cluster by solder? My cruise control indicator went out yesterday, and since I have to replace some dash bulbs, I figured I would do this too. CC still works. Thanks.
