| Service 4wd error code shows up on dash display when driving through mud and water puddles, the vehicle enters 4wd before entering the mud/water but goes back to 2wd after being in the mud/water for a minute or two, also the 4wd push button light flashes when code is showing. after letting the vehicle dry out, the service 4wd error message does not appear. i need the 4wd all the time in the mud, not when it feels like working. | |||
