Telltale Lights on, Rear Diff Flashing

[scamluka]

Pulled my boat out of the water yesterday with no issues, but driving home less than a mile and warning lights started coming on and error messages (see photos). Oddly the rear diff switch light is also flashing. Had a similar issue last winter but it corrected itself overnight. This time it hasn't. Also, disconnected the battery for several minutes to see if that would reset things. Nothing. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Also, it won't go higher than 2nd gear and got a Gear Box Malfunction. I also used the parking break when I launched and pulled the boat out.

You have enough random lights that I feel like this could be an electrical fault.

After your similar issue last winter did you happen to let your dealer know so they could pull the codes?

You mean the first time? No I did not. This time is different though - it's underivable.

Sometimes some sprays of contact spray like WD 40 into the trailer connector (and its backside) can heal such things. If possible dry it with pressured air.

Thanks for the suggestion, AWo. Didn’t work this time. Looks like long tow to the dealer is in order.

Dealer said it was a rear wheel sensor failure. Fixing that’s along with a faulty seatbelt (second time), faulty door handle (second time), broken safari window latch (spring fell in my lap) and a climate control switch that sticks. Oh and a windshield. Adding that to a reflector that fell off in the first week of ownership and it’s not a great track record for a vehicle with 7k miles on it.

Deposit in for an GX 550 Overland due in January as a backup.

From past experience, When the computer gets pissed off due to whatever broken wire/voodoo/etc. and goes into limp mode, put it in manual mode and just shift it. It doesn’t fix anything, but you can drive home at regular speed. Seems that the computer will only let the engine run within a certain rev range so you have to drive mid throttle and select the gear you need for the speed you want. Automatic will do nothing and flooring it only pisses it off more.
