Yesterday I had all tires and TPMS replaced on my 07 FX35 and I saw AWD light is on. I drove around still light is not going away. I have not seen it before. Any pointers on how to fix this ? Thanks in advance
 
One of the ABS sensors may have gotten damaged when the wheels were removed or replaced. Have the car scanned for codes.

Also, it seems obvious, but make sure all tires are the same size and that the pressures are equal.

I took car to Autozone and scanned for codes didn't find anything. I have checked the sizes of all tires they are all same. Checked the fuse box also didn't find any blown out fuse. Looks like I need to take it to dealer :(
 
I suggest you take it to the place where you got the tires and tpms replaced. If it worked fine before they got the car, then it is likely something they did.

Before you have anything done you should disconnect the battery negative lead for about twenty minutes then reconnect tightly. This will reset the network and make the ECU learn the new sensors. Right now It probably detects the change and thinks something is wrong.

Tried disconnecting battery for 1-2 hours and connected it back no luck so far. AWD light is still on
 
Here's a thread about pulling/reinstalling a relay.

FX45 - Help with AWD Light on/ only AWD Light

"Ok alil update of the situation
The awd light disappeared when
We took the relay switch out and plugged them back in..... And i drove alil and restarted a couple times and no sign as of yet
So far i am relieved but i am still going to check out the part just to see how much they run for
Any ideas? Thanks!!!!
Here are pics of where the relay is for anyone with similar problem in the future its on driver side under the glove compartment
I think mine just somewhat rebooted itself after unplug .... But it was securely inplace before so lets hope for the best"

I saw the post but looks like pictures are not accessible so not sure where is relay switch under glove compartment, I opened it under glove compartment couldn't find any relay
 
Wanted to know if I keep driving AWD light on will anything else happen ? from the details AWD light on means it will be more like 2WD car. If I keep driving will it mess up any other transmission etc

It means your AWD is disabled. Shouldn't hurt anything as the car is working to protect itself from damage.

Looks like you need to go back to the shop that created this problem. They did something wrong, or damaged something.

Check your TPMS page and see if you get psi readings on all four tires.

Yes TPMS shows correct readings for all 4 tires
