| My defender 90 won't come out of diff lock?! You can still go from H to L gears but still stays in lock. I thought it might be the indicator, but you can still feel its on in the steering. Any ideas guys? | |

| if the leaver has moved over out of difflock and the light is still on try reversing back till light gos out may have wound up a bit or difflock leaver can stick lack of use so i gess it could stick over in difflock like tony said wd40 links and all so wd40 wear the stick gos in and pushs across if leaver has stuck may be you could try takeing link of lever from under the jeep and then push link on tbox to get it out of difflock if it dont move or still dont come out of difflock sounds like some thing wrong in tbox | |

are you sure, lol, the previous posts are probably right, but just as a precaution jack the vehicle up either side will do so there is no strain on the t/fer box and to unwind transmision then try getting it out of difflock, if it is partially seized linkages i would strip out the floors in the front and the tunnel and have a look at what the levers are doing, when you put it all together you didnt drop the little nylon top hat bushes that go in the linkages cus this causes the lever to become sloppy and sometimes will go in and not come out and vice a versa, hth, baggy | |
