How do you activate 4 wheel drive on a 2002 land rover discovery II?

For a 2002 Land Rover Discovery II, it depends on the model and drivetrain whether it has a manual or electronic 4WD system. Here are the steps for both:

1. Manual 4WD Activation (if equipped):

- Ensure that you're on a level surface and that the vehicle is stationary.

- Engage the parking brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling.

- Check that the transmission is in neutral.

- Locate the 4WD transfer lever or switch, which is usually near the center console or beneath the dashboard.

- Push or turn the lever/switch to the "4WD Low" or "4WD High" position, depending on the terrain you're driving on.

- You may hear a clunk or feel some resistance when the 4WD system engages.

- Once engaged, the 4WD indicator light on the dashboard will turn on.

2. Electronic 4WD Activation (if equipped):

- Check that you're on a level surface and that the vehicle is stationary.

- Apply the parking brake.

- Start the engine and leave it idling.

- Locate the 4WD control button, which is usually labeled "4WD High/Low" on the dashboard.

- Press the 4WD button to engage the system.

- The vehicle will display a message on the instrument cluster indicating that 4WD has been engaged.

Note: Refer to your vehicle owner's manual for the specific instructions on activating 4WD on your 2002 Land Rover Discovery II, as there might be slight variations based on the exact trim and model.
