Was just pulling out of a parking spot in my wife's 2005 LC and noticed an issue. When the steering wheel is at full lock in either direction the vehicle will not move at idle. It feels like when you try to make a slow, tight turn in a part time 4WD. The tires are squealing a little and it's very "jerky". I pulled into an open lot and was able to reproduce it multiple times. Any one ever experienced this? Any ideas? Thanks for your help.
 
Thanks for the quick response. That makes perfect sense. Went out and tried that and seemed to do the trick. From a quick scan of the manual it looks like I should have a light on when the center diff is locked. There is nothing showing on the panel. When I press the button I can hear a small click, but no indicator light.
 
Try turning the CDL on and off, time and time again over next few weeks. Lack of use and a relay gets stuck. Just be aware by feel and click sound, of engagement.
