well, no one with more knowledge than my meagre store has replied so I'll chuck in my twopennyworth. usually this is due to transmission windup. Alternatively, the selector has jammed and it's stuck in 4wd. You need to establish if it is really in 4wd or if it's just that the light has stayed on. In the meantime, freeing off your freewheeling hubs will hopefully stop the transmission going bang! Or remove the front prop
