As an update to everyone (sorry it took so long). The Holden yard who sold me the car ended up having to replace the whole electronic transmission system for the 4WD. Good job I was covered at the time as that would have cost a bit.

I'm having a similar problem with my transfer case actuator where the centre diff doesnt actuate despite pressing the button and moving around. My 4L is fine though. Any fix tips?

I had the same warning lights, Slip and Engine solid, and with 4LO flashing. When the fault was present I couldn't engage 4LO or cruise control.
The root cause for me was that a dodgy auto sparky had managed to introduce a second power feed into the brake light circuit.
Hope that helps.

If your starter battery is close to failing it can result in odd dashboard lights staying on including the 4LO. Mines done it twice to me now over the years, it also reported Crank angle sensor error code. I can only think that once the battery voltage gets to a certain point the ECU gets confused. New starter battery resolved the issue both times.

The Prado am having is behaving funny. only in the morning the engine light is on and displaying 4LO and loses power when you switch off ignition and on again it becomes ok. what could be the problem. before I had a diagnosis error code of P0093 which we have fixed.

Hey Mate,
I know this was a long time ago, but I'm having exactly the same problem with my 2012 150 prado. Would you mind posting what the issue and fix ended up being?
Thanks!
Philip

SO that didnt last long, took it for a short run (on main roads in the city) and hey whats this, the same warning lights.

So thats the traction, the 4LO flashing and ABS on.
Each of those came on when I started the car. It wont engage/disengage 4WD.
Taking it back to the dealer (again) pretty annoyed now. Any ideas what it could be?

So all good, turns out it was a switch (?). Will be getting it back tomorrow. Best take it for a proper off road run on the weekend.

My mate had this exact problem, it was the transfer actuator and cost him $2400 to get fixed.
Details are in this thread http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread...e-won-t-engage
He tried a cheap one from a wrecker but there is a calibration procedure required that meant he couldn't use the one from the wrecker so had to buy a new one.
