I had this same problem occur last weekend driving on the highway at about 60 mph during a heavy rain. The TOD display showed the front wheel indicators fully lit with the TOD "Check" light flashing on and off. The VX still felt like it was driving normally though, so I'm not sure whether the TOD system was actually in 4-Hi. There was some standing water in various places on the road so I wondered if the front tires were hydroplaning momentarily at times and throwing off the front wheel sensors. (Even though my tires are fairly new Goodyear Eagle GT-ll's, there was enough water that they could have been skipping at times.)

The check light kept flashing on and off until I slowed down upon entering the city limits of the next town. As I was starting and stopping in traffic waiting to go through a stop sign, the check light stopped flashing and everything started operating normally. I went through another heavy shower about 20 minutes later but nothing similar happened.

At the time, I remembered reading here about certain sensors/connectors that could get wet and cause intermittant problems. Which sensors/connectors in particular might have caused this problem? I'd like to check the connectors and reseal them to prevent the problem from reoccuring.
