If the light blinks and then goes out while starting the vehicle, you are fine. It is a self-check for diagnostics. If the light turns on and stays on, even when not moving, then you have a system fault and need to take it to a dealership (that is, if you could find one to fix it...) If the light goes on and then goes off while driving, and you are in a low-traction environment (like heavy rain, or snow, for example) then you are fine. The computer is just telling you it is doing its Torque-On-Demand thing. As a helpful hint, might be a good idea to read your owner's manual.

SOURCE: My 01 Trooper had problems

We have a 1998 Trooper that had the same problem. The fix was an electronic switch for the 4WD - a vacuum sensor - on the front axle that just plugs in. You can see it - if you look under the car from the front, it's mounted in the middle of the front axle. It cost $175 from the dealer. We had somebody install it for $50. Don't know where you live, but they are exposed and can corrode. That's what happened to ours. Good luck - hope it's the same problem. This was an easy fix, and we were pleased.

You might have an engine misfire? I would check and replace all your spark plugs as mind was doing this exact same thing several months ago!

SOURCE: I have a 99 isuzu trooper (jackaroo) 3.5 liter 4wd

sounds like a sensor - when did it start - if just cranked up one day and bam it is there - sounds like either a brake wear indicator issue - if they are connected in those - or a fluid level change in the rear end or transfer case - look for leaks and check the brake pads or shoes

04 Isuzu rodeo 4x4 light blinking does not engage in 4x4 high or low.

4wd
or optional TOD, ?
if using part time 4wd?
that simple systems needs , ice on road or offroad
so DO tell what tires are touching>?
the car is no AWD.
the rules for using it is in the operators guide,
read that?
if on dry pavement (no ice) the transmission will not like
using 4wd, there is no center differential and will bind up.
test it on dirt or ice, first. work now>?

using PT, system one tire must bie on a slippery surface, or it will wind up. or lockup or fail to shift,just like read jeeps do , with PT 4wd. (owned 6)

Blinking check engine light

its most likely an ignition coil. you are probably getting a spike in the electrical system. my lincoln ls does the same thing sometimes. the check engine light wiill blink for awhile then stop, and eventually it will stay on and run rough. every single time it turned out to be an ignition coil.

Tod light on

spark plugs???

The TOD dictates that 1 of 3 things may have gone faulty: clutch in the transfer case, TOD computer, Speed Sensor on the transfer case

The clutch in the transfer case almost never goes bad and the computer is reliable too... it's common for the speed sensors to fail though... you should check that and hook it up to an OBDII reader to see what the exact code is... or you can test the speed sensors with a test light....

TOD

TOD light blinking means the TOD is sending a fault code. have the dealer check it out.

You can switch from 2WD to TOD-HI, at any speed below 50 MPH.

If you want to switch to TOD-LOW, you have to stop the car, put the transmission in Neutral, then turn the dial to TOD-LOW. When you switch out of LOW, do the same.
