    I engaged the 2 wheel locking wheel differential. The lights come on and I can tell the 2 wheels are locked in when I turn.

    However, it seems that I have a problem disengaging the 2 wheel locking diff. I push the button and the lights remain on.

    Do I have to completely motionless to disengage? Do I have to stop the engine and restart?

    Please advise,

    Jeff W. Waldrop
