'91 B2600i Dash and questions...?
 

I just bought a '91 B2600i 4x4 without an owner's manual, and I have a couple questions for you Mazdanians. There is a button to the right of the steering column that says Remote Front Wheel, and the button lights up and says LOCK after it comes out of 4WD. What is this?

Also, on the left side of the dash, a light came on that said HOLD, and it disappeared the next time I drove it. Anyone know what this is?

Thanks.

Hey - had my 92 b2600 for three years and didn't understand it until I managed to get an original owners manual. What it says is that the front wheel mechanism automatically locks when you shift to 4H or 4L. The RFW light comes on to indicat this. While the light is on you can shift from 4H or 4L to 2H and back to 4H or 4L while moving. When you shift back to 2H the light stays on indicating that the front wheel mechanism is still locked. You can unlock it by pressing the RFW switch and the light goes off. You shouldn't run with the RFW with on while in 2H unless you need to because it causes noise, tire wear and excessive fuel consumption. If the light doesn't come on when you shift to 4H or 4L or if it doesn't go off when you are in 2H and push the button then you could have a malfunction. Now I finally understand. Rolomac
