4X4 light indicator

Dec 11, 2006 5 Replies

My 92' Ram 150 4x4 light does not work. Took out the bulb and put in back in and it worked just fine. After I got everything back on the dash the light don't work. Took the bulb out again and replaced it with a new one and still nothen. Is there somekind of a "switch" that triggers the light to come on? Or what can be wrong?



Thanks



When you first turn the vehicle on, there is a lamp test and all the dash indicator lights come on.

Then it is not the switch, but an open in the wiring somewhere you will have to troubleshoot. Or it could be the connecter where the bulb plugs into

If it's like other vehicles I've had you might try cleaning the contacts on both the instrument panel and the bulb socket. A standard pencil eraser does a good job. Also adjust (i.e. bend) the tabs on the socket to ensure a good contact with the instrument panel printed circuit.

The 4x4 light works now, must be a lose connection somewhere, thanks to all who helped.
