Yes it will be lit up whenever you have the lights one. Only the front wheels of the truck will light up when 4wd is engaged.

even when its in 2w it should be back lit? if so i have some work to do haha

 

[silverado_06]

Mine shows the front wheels lit up when it is in 2 wheel drive. Never really paid it much attention. A wire must be backwards - I hope. Something else to look into, especially since I like the idea of a different colour showing up when it is actually in 4 wheel, and I would like to change the backlight to a more subdued red or blue.

Are the rear wheels supposed to light up at any time?

there are 2 bulbs. the one closes to the front of the truck is the one for when 4wd is on. the back one is for 2wd. i put a 5led blue in and it looks sick at night got a red in the 4wd but never seen it because my 4wd dont work :/

I put my bulbs in backwards at first, so it's easily screwed up. Just swap the bulbs to the other hole in the trim housing.

Ahhh... that might be it. I disconnected them altogether. I made my ash tray light red (used a piece of red film to cover the hole where the light shines through) and then noticed how bright the 4WD lights are now. The LED 194's are $12 in town, so I probably will just try spraying a bit of red paint on the bulbs as it has worked for me before.

But...since I've had the truck up on a friends hoist....I've found 5 different leaks, mainly axle seals, so the lights go on hold until they get fixed.
