Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
Didn't you put headers on this summer? If so, i'd look to see if anything is touching them now.

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
Nope, headers are in the clear. I did see one of the wires to the headlights touching the engine though and resecured that. But on the way home today, it was more of a brake-pad smell and super strong. There was supposedly an industrial fire in that area tho, I hope that was all it was and nothing new!

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
I also have the "service 4WD" alarm after driving awhile. I received a hint that it may be due to low battery voltage, so I am going to do a full charge tonight. I will report later.
I have no ideas about the smell.

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
The one and only time I got the Service 4WD it ended up being a faulty transfer case shift control switch (15127829).

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
Smell is gone now, that's a good thing.
Been watching for my error message - it's very intermittent, and when the "Service 4WD" comes on, the locker button (top round button) starts flashing. Then the message goes off and the light stops. This will do this maybe every 10-15 mins when I'm driving, and lasts for maybe a minute.

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
I've had this too. Can't remember it if was a switch or a sensor, but it was one of the two. Same thing as the other guys, when I had it replaced, the light never came on again.

Re: "Service 4WD" plus burning smell?
Never came up all day yesterday. Odd.
Is this the $700 switch that needs to be replaced? If that's the case, I'll just deal with the blinking light.
