    Damn !

    I never heard such of TOD in locked mod

    I think you may have to get a mech with the knowlegde in ISUZU TOD to find the source of the issue.
    Dakar was just the begining.

    I'm sure you have shifted into 4L and back several times to make sure that's not the issue.

    My next steps would be to check the sensor connections as one might have gotten loose in the gravel.

    Next would be to have the TOD code checked to see what that tells you.

    yeah, switched in and out of 4l several times... i checked under the truck to see if anything was loose or off and i didn't see anything abnormal... and i tried disconnecting the battery for ten minutes once i got home to reset everything. when i turned it back on and drove it 5 feet the light started flashing again.
    i'm taking it to my buddy tomorrow who was an isuzu tech but he's never worked on the tod system
    this has happened before but only for a few minutes and the check light never flashed before, i just drove about a mile and it fixed itself
    not a happy camper, i just bought my rims tires and had the lift installed and how does my bee repay me......

    What lift have you had done? Could that have caused a problem with linkages?

    When you shift in and out of 4L is there a noticeable engagement/disengagement and do the other tod lights come on and go off as they should?

    i used the 919 springs and cranked the torsion bars... i don't think that could've done it... i installed that last friday and like i said, this has happened before just never stayed locked in and the check light never flashed before

    i didn't notice any lock/unlock when i was shifting but that wasn't what i was looking for... also, the lights all stayed on except the AUTO in the middel went out... i'll check again in the morning when i get back from work... i have a friend taking me
