I have a 1997 GMC Sierra 1500 5.0 Vortec 4x4. When I try and lock in 4x4 low or even somtimes 4x4 high, the light just blinks. I can tell that the truck is in low range but it is not in 4x4, if that makes sense. It is in low range but the front wheels not pulling.

Any suggestions?

  So they managed to get GM warranty participation on it? Nice. The "warranty" they are telling you though...doesn't sound right. GM OEM replacement parts are only a 2 year/unlimited mile warranty, except for some select items that may have a limited lifetime (wheel bearings and a few other things) and accessories. So the cam, lifters, etc. would only have a 2 year/unlimited mile warranty from GM.

  Now there's some fancy double talk. Let me see if I get this right. The level is at the bottom of the hatching and you add a quart (because the range of the hatching is a quart) it brings it to the top of the hatching but.... it's not down a quart?

  The bottom of the crosshatch wouldn't be "1 quart low" in the published manual because the range of the crosshatch is the allowable range. The crosshatch is approx. 1 quart or liter so that when the oil level is at the bottom of or below the acceptable range you can safely add 1 quart or liter without overfilling.
