Hi, I have a KIA Sorento 4x4 and the 4WD LOW indicator light comes on from time to time by it's self. I live in Seattle and we just got a BAD snow storm, so naturally I went to use the 4wd, and it won't enguage. Only the back wheels are spinning. Any thought's as to what may be happening? ie - Transfer case fluid? Bad switch?
-Thanks
Always make sure that whenever you engage into and out of 4x4, your gear lever is on N and not P.
so to reset it in now, switch on your engine with the hand brake up. set the gear lever to N, turn the knob to 4x4 Hi... wait 10 secs....switch it back to 2Hi...wait 10 secs and then return the gear lever to P and it should be ok.

4WD light comes on and stays on... But 4wd not engaged.
sometimes in tight Left turns (turning off mainroad to side road ) transmission will not downshift or allow switching to manual.
4x4 doesn't work took it to ford dealer said transfer case was bad replaced transfer case still no 4x4
