    Has anyone had this light come on? It does not come on all the time only once in a while. Thanks.

    my 2002gmc envoy does the same thing and is currently in the shop now for that reason. when my light comes on no 4 wheel drive at all. i thought it was intermitting but i realize its only when the vehical gets wet or goes throught the car wash. they say its possible a modular possible getting wet by water getting in through the vents under the winshield wipers.

    I have an 07 Yukon with 20581 miles. I have just noticed the same pulsing problem as well. I had an 04 Yukon and put nearly 60K miles on it and never had any rotor problems.

    My 2004 Yukon did the same thing. GM repalced the "encoder" motor in the trans. It tells the computer what mode the trans is in. It is not monitored by the system same system that stores codes, so you cannot run any diagnostics on it. It either works or it doesn't. I would go back to GM and demand they replace it before your warranty expires.

    I've gotten this message before, but usually if I turn off the engine, and restart it will usually go away. Or sometimes I'll switch it back and forth from 2 weel to 4 weel, but this time it won't give me access to the lighted buttons to do this. I had it to service for this problem, but they never came up with anything. I wonder if I were to disconnect the battery, and then reconnect would this reset the computer, and allow the buttons to light up again so I'd be able the excerise the drive by switching from 2 weel to 4 weel and so on. Any Ideas?
