Need to do some checking with a multimeter. Fuel light is probable the switch in the tank. Its not meant to come on till your down to 10 liters and its a 83 litre tank. If you have the hub lock built into the diff instead of free wheel hubs the light is controlled by a switch on the front diff

for the fuel light i have to check the swtch in the thank( how do i get to the switch, is it eazy)
and for the 4wd light, i have auto hubs, does that mean that will be allways on, even if i have only the rear drive on only.
