BigMike,got the light out.Unlocked the hubs and drove around the block,seemed like it was in 4low.Parked and moved the selector from 2Hi to 4Hi a few times and the light went out.Now if you could only help out with my big problem on this truck,the clutch.A shop put in a Sachs clutch kit and it shifted good for a few weeks and then gradually got harder and harder to shift at times.He bled it again and that lasted another few weeks,bled it again another few weeks and so on.Last trip to the shop he just got a couple of wrenches and adjusted the CMC rod I believe and again it shifted good for a few weeks before the same hard shifting into first and second and reverse.He said the clutch bracket was good.It dosen't leak fluid.Funny thing is when I start out first thing in the morning it's hard to get into first,but coming to the first two nearby stop signs it shifts like butter into gear.After that it's anyones guess as to how it will shift.IF I shift into reverse as soon as it turns over mostly it'll go in with a slight grind.Seems the harder it is to get into gear the tougher/or if at all it is to get into first.I know I should have gotten Aisin parts but had to have the clutch kit put in on borrowed money so I had no choice.MT-90 and the shifter bushing and seat were put in by a friend a year ago.Do you think the CMC could be bad,though not leaking or that little rubber hose is bad?The shop fellow talked about fabricating a longer CMC rod,but when he'll ever get it on his lift is anyone's guess.Could he have damaged a clutch part on installation?..and why does it shift fine once in awhile and mostly dosen't......thanks for reading this long winded post as I'm totally sick over this 4 month ordeal and would trade this nice looking truck for a Honda car if I could.
