Hi again as the title says my diff lock light is on and will not go out. I have just replaced the rear diff and first time using since. I can still put it in high/lo and diff lock but my light will not go out and it feels a little shuddery when pulling to a stop. Any help would be great.

It sounds like your Centre Diff Lock (CDL) is stuck on. If you leave it like that for any length of time you will damage something in the transmission.

Assuming that the vehicle is RHD and you have the difflock lever firmly over to the right - ie closest to you - have you tried reversing so that the CDL releases?

I discoverd that my diff is stuck on and iv tried reversing etc and it still wont unlock I dont know how else to free it up
 
Short sharp burst in reverse then towards then backwards, it will come out, the more you use it the easyer it will become
 
No only when the leaver is pushed left to the diff lock position,

Mine doesn't come on at all,
Should it come on when u put the ignition lights on or is there a way to get all lights on dash to come on soo u can see if the bulbs r working?

If your not sure if the bulb has gone just swap it for one that comes on with the ignition ie battery or oil etc. If it works then its most prob a switch or something like that. Mine dosnt cone on with the ignition only if I put it in to diff lock.
