4wd only works when Diff Locked & No Light
My front drive shaft is removed and the only way I can get the rear wheels to move is when I'm locked in 4h or 4l. When in 4Auto High or 4Auto Low, only the front driveshaft spins.
Further the dash light/ding doesn't come on when I shift into 4h or 4l locked.
Vehicle Info: 2004 Disco with a newly installed lift, 4.11 diffs w/front Truetrac/rear Detroit, and new brake rotors/pads/ss lines all around.
Without the front driveshaft, I took it off the jack stands and went for a short low speed drive around the block and the only way I could move was if I was locked in 4H or 4L.
Is this normal?

Any thoughts on the dash light and ding? Neither worked when I lock it in 4h or 4l.

Got me on that one. Mine usually takes a second to come on but always gets to it eventually. Believe there's a switch on the diff that tells the computer when it's locked or not, I'd start there.

There is also a fuse that energizes that switch and that could be blown.
