4x4 Light came on and won't shut off
The light 4x4 dash light came on my 1995 F150 4x4 and I can't turn it off and it's not actually in 4 wheel drive. It has push button 4x4 option. Is this light indicating there is something with the motor on the transfer case that activates the 4x4?

If memory serves, the 4x4 light is turned on by an actual mechanical button/arm in the shift motor, so the light being on might indicate a bad motor.
