I own a 2000 Mercury Mountaineer, 4WD, 6 cyl., with 84,000 miles on it.
Within the last week, the dash lights 4WD low and 4WD high flash six times and then go off. Sometimes this process repeats itself once or twice in a half hour period. After that they normally do not flash again until the engine has been shut off and restarted. It does not do this every time. I called the dealer and they said there was a 50%chance that they could diagnose the problem but that if the lights were not on when I took it in, it was less % than that. I could not find anything in the owners manual about the lights flashing and then going off only if the lights stayed on.
Any ideas on what I might do.
