considering an 03 aztek with 74,000 on it,problem is the antilock light and awd disable light are on and there's no owners manual in it to tell me why it's disabling the awd,can anyone out there tell me why it would?

Could be something as simple as a tire really low on air, but most likely not. A dealor scanner would suggest replaement of partucular wheel sensor (in this case the whle wheel bearing/hub assenly needs to be replaced), but in many cases the real cause has been been connection to one of those sensors (corrosion, broken wire).

Get it scanned first for codes.Another problem with them are the a/c condensors if this happens down the road later on,they are bolted together with 4 bolts and splits one end.The replacements have three bolt holes and have to get a special clip from the dealer.
