4 wheel drive high light on instrument panel will flash 10 times then stop, then about 3 minutes it will repeat and repeat. when attempting to push the 4 wheel high button on dash the 4 wheel high light will not come on. After siting overnight in the garage the he 4 wheel light might come on when the button is pushed and stay on and work properly,but the problem will start all over again. Sometimes it works properly and sometimes not.Sometimes it will engage and sometimes not. On going problem every day whether it will work or not. Can you help.
