W124 300TE 4matic light on
The warning lamp on the dash , not the triangle on the speedometer ,stays on all the time even when I switch the test lever to rear drive, can the car be driven safely with this light on ? and what are the possible reasons and remedies to get the light off? Car seems to drive normally as regards gear changes .

yes car can be driven safely, 4matic light is for 4wheel drive system. light on vehicle 4matic system is down. driving in rear wheel drive. Dealer scan test necessary to diagnose. Probably electronic malfunction of one or more speed sensors

what year?
It sounds like a 90 or 91 with the test lever. Upon startup, the 4matic light should blink / flash a number of times to give a code. If it does not, try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and then restart to check for codes. The test lever should be down (in the operating position) and make sure you have fluid in the 4matic reservoir.
The codes will tell how to start troubleshooting.
