    Did you put it into 4WD and switch back to 2? Does the lamp go out? Turn on/off? Does it just stay on no matter what? Could be a lot of things. ABS sensor?

    Likely a faulty front differential actuator or maybe just the sensor for that actuator.

    Thats just an interwebz best guess for only having the 4wd light blinking, which means its not fully engaging.
