Hi everyone....I'm new (cue tuts and head shakes!).
I've just become the owner of a 1996 3rd gen auto. I love it.
But I have questions to ask you the 'wise' and 'all-knowing' regarding various lights on my dash.
Firstly, its currently in 2WD as it should be. One of my work colleagues has been mincing about with it whilst I was in the butty shop this lunchtime. When the 4WD button is pressed I get some lovely lights on the dash indicating that all 4 wheels (green lights) are being driven and an orange light representing the diff.
Now when I press the 4WD button again to switch back to 2WD, the lights don't go out, they start to flash. They flashed all the way back to work (a mile or so). This is confusing as when I bought it no lights were illuminated. Do they go out after a while? or has something gone wrong? Or do I not have a clue what I'm doing?
Secondly, the fella i bought it off said he had done an Oil and Filter change last month. I have two lights by my right knee for Oil and filter......should they be lit red? should they be lit at all? Or are they just indicating that everything is OK?
Any help/advice would be greatfully appreciated !
Thanks
Ben.
