HELP!!! Diff lock stuck on

[spinna]

HELP Whilst waiting for the missus to come out of supermarket, i was sat in the Trol fiddling with switches as you do and flicked the diff lock switch on and then off. Then as we drove home (about 1 mile) i thought the car didn't feel right and spotted the diff light was on but the switch was off. Now the diff lock is is stuck on PLEASE HELP :bow

Just spoken to a mate and he thinks there is a soloniod on the gearbox or the rear diff somewhere. Does anyone now if this could be right? :bow:bow

Evenin' fellow Trol miester
The diff lock actuator is on the back diff and it's little pipes are prone to rusting away. Chances are the air is escaping and so not switching off due to pressure leak. Have a spy underneath and check your pipes :thumbs
Quick fix will be sticky tape liberally applied to dissengage difflock. Then go fix it properly. In my case I redid the pipes with some spare brake pipes as they're the same size :thumb2

Yeees, there's your 1st stumbling block, 4x4+woman=0 :doh

 

[solarman216]

just got the answer, I found the right woman, and after 40 odd years together we still have it every day, and I am 65, so the relevance of this is to be sure of the woman you chose to live your life with, but I guess I was lucky and this is no easy task, Rick

 

[makeitfit]

Good work Rick :naughty:thumbs
