Turn the transfer case knob that’s to the left of the steering wheel to the two-wheel drive position that’s marked with a “2” and up-arrow icon if you experience a vibration in the steering when driving on dry pavement or making tight turns.

What are the up and down lights on a 4 wheel drive transmission?

The lights will correspond to the “2” and up-arrow position for two-wheel-drive high, “4” and down-arrow for four-wheel drive low, and so on. Wait for flashing lights to stop before shifting the knob. Don’t shift the knob too frequently if the transfer case enters shift protection mode. Shift protection mode comes into play to stop damage.
