Mine has just started playing up on the drive home yesterday from a weekend playing in rivers
Looks like I have a job for tonight
Exactly as the book says (Thanks BH great info as always)

Problem 1 - I've noticed lately they when engaging 4wd the gear stick is really hard to move in to H4. Could this be just from not using for a few weeks?

Problem 2 - Only this weekend I've notice once I change back to H2 the 4wd light stayed on until I turned the car off. Once I engaged H4 again the 4wd light started flashing and now it doesn't come on at all even when in H4 & L4. I know the SR doesn't have the ADD and I can't seem to find anything on SR models with this issue. Could it be the sensor playing up? And where would this be located?

Thanks guys

I have tried the search function. A lot about the SR5 but couldn't find anything relating to the SR.
No rough tracks mate.
I got a new heavy duty clutch about 5000kms ago and replaced some stuffed tough dog front shocks.
