My son is looking at a 2004 Avalanche. 94,600 miles and every option available for the year. It's owned by a banker and he ordered it with everything. He can get it for about $10,500.Anyway, I test drove it and the "service 4 wheel drive" light popped on. Does this indicate a serious condition, or is it a "take it to the dealer and reset it" sort of thing? Any of you folks know anything about that code? Thanks!

Yup, the info here is correct - it's either the encoder or the 4wd module. LACK of use is what kills 'em.
