Default couple of questions about my 96 jimmy

Ok I have a 96 'high rise' s15 jimmy . I have 3 questions for starters,

1 check engine light randomly comes on I had it scanned and the results were p040 evap system and p0700 transmission control system. It does shift hard between 1st and second 2nd.

2 daytime running light issue. When the relay in the glove box is plugged in I have daytime running lights on, when I turn the headlights on I hear the crazy squeeling sound coming from that relay box in the glove. with the relay removed I only have 1 high beam. The bulbs are all good and high beams both work with relay plugged in. Any ideas how to get this working normally?

3 4x4 related question. When I was stuck on an icy rd I stopped put the truck into 4 whl high and nothing happened. It sounded like it shifted, indicator lights all lit but no front wheel movement. After I backed down the road turned around to go a diff direction, after going about 100 ft the 4x4 kicked in and worked. It did not go off when the button was pushed though. Now when I try to use it, it sounds like it shifts, lights light up but no wheel movement. Where should I start looking?

thanks all for your input sorry for the long post.

Patience...

Those codes are meaningless since they are not complete. Check out the DTC section of the Tech Article (DIY) section for a listing of codes that have been posted.

As far as your headlights & DRLs go, have you tried replacing the relay?

There are many posts on 4wd issues. Check the link in my signature for some ideas.
