The light was never on until I replaced the factory battery today.

I just replaced my battery in my r/t 4x4 & now the service 4wd indicator light is on. Will this go off once the computer resets itself?

Try to disconnect the battery and reconnect it a few times. It should shut itself off. If it doesn't, you will need to have the computer scanned to identify why the light is on. However, it should reset.

I tried disconnecting the battery as suggested & the light still came back on after the car was started for about 30 seconds. Is there any other suggestions I could try?

Have the computer scanned to identify what is causing the light to come on. The computer may need flashed.
