Fix the problems with the 4x4 and clear all of the codes. You can try and disconncet the battery overnight, That should clear the code, But if the problem isn't fixed then It will come back on, maybe when you most need 4x4

1998 Chevy Suburban - service 4wd light comes on after running 4x4 for 2 mins

Well it could be the selector switch, but I doubt it.
Generally, the service light means something is not working that the computer controls. Solenoids and valves are a couple of possibilities.
The transfer case is shifted by solenoids commanded by the body computer based on the switch position on the dash.
You should be able to have a shop scan the body computer for trouble codes and proceed from there.
A basic code reader may not access the body computer.

Trouble service 4wd light 2004 Suburan- resets when restart most of the time, wont shift to 4wd when lights are out on dash or and service light is on, conections look good.

I just had the switch replaced on the dash and that helped for a while. Now the service 4wd light comes on but i have no problems shifting into 4wd or no problems with the switch lighting up. cost about $150 to have this done. Still not convinced the problem is solved b/c the service light is still coming on.

99 chev suburban. My lights flicker when I drive. Sometimes when I hit a bump my radio resets and abs wheel sensor goes wild.

sounds like you have a loose wire somewhere. Check the thick wire that leads from the battery to the starter and from the ground to the negative battery terminal.

Very rare occurrence you are describing.

Service 4WD LIGHT IS ON

I have a 2002 chevy trailblazer LT 4.2 l w/ approx 85000 miles on it and I left key in car after rolling down windows for about 2 hours drainging battery. After charging battery and running car for a little bit the service 4 wheel drive light came on. I have had no problems with the truck and I am wondering if it is because the battery was drained and the computer needs to be reset or something?
