I attempted to engage 4Lo while out this weekend. My 4auto and 4lo lights flashed three times then went out. The front wheels did not engage. Any suggestions?

Where where you going wheeling, I hit sometrails around Estes on Sat and off Happy jack on sun.

The problem sound line it is electrical, you might want to check all the fuses, Etc.

Roger that, I checked all the connections, they were good, then I unhooked the battery and reset the computer, it worked after that. Somebody suggested that in another thread and it worked, for now. There has to be some greater underlying problem that I will search for another day.

As for wheelin, I was up in the snowies around Foxpark, but I like to wheel in Vedawoo (off happy jack, close to home).
 






Make sure and check the fluid level, mine was acting weird after I changed the fluid turned out to be a little low.
 






I had a similar problem but the lights blinked 6 times and then went out for about to minutes and then would flash again. It was the front speed sensor, I got it replaced and no problems since. I think the # of flashes is supposed to be for different issues - so it might not be the same, but could be a different sensor.

Good Luck
