    What does the 80 to 84 4WD light look like?

    I know you 80-84 owners have, generally, the same dash as us 70's owners. On our dash (at least the Quadratrac rigs) we have a light that says "E-Drive" on the right side when we select, well, E-Drive. I am assuming Jeep changed that to "4WD" in 1980? Right? If so, does anyone have a picture of one lit up?

    My '83 dash has both lights, with the e-drive on top and 4wd underneath. I had the NP208, so the e-drive light was never used. You can see from the wear patterns on the back of the board that there was never even a bulb in that spot.

      NP229 in 84 did not have the switch installed that controls that light, though there is definitely a spot for the bulb.

      It might have something to do with the disco 44 in front?

      Later years had the switch.
