No, it doesn't hurt, but why do it? If you have disabled the AWD, it won't be there when you need it, and disabling it does not affect things like gas mileage. The only time I would disable AWD would be if the car was being towed.

It could mess up your transfer case and rear differentials which cost over 2k+
of Disable
The light can not be disabled. If it stays on, there is a failure in the system that will have to be repaired.
The fuse amp doesn't matter since all you are doing is "completing the circuit" and therefore canceling the fwd function. The owners manual doesn't even specify which amperage to use...use whatever you have because you will see verification on your dash that the "FWD" light is on after you install the fuse, confirming you have disabled the awd feature. Comprende?
If the AWD has been disabled a light on the dash will indicate "FWD". Otherwise, if it drives smoothly and gives no indication of a problem, it is working. The Subaru AWD mechanism very seldom fails but when they do there will be no question that something is wrong. Enjoy your car.
disable
The word "disabled" is correct when referring to someone with a physical or mental impairment. "Disable" is a verb meaning to deprive of capability or effectiveness.
AnswerFor the First Generation Murano there are 2 AWD lights, one that says AWD and one that says AWD LOCK. if the AWD Light is on, Then you have a Problem in the AWD System, if the AWD LOCK light is on, then your AWD is stuck on on, or you just have to turn it off.
Mine did that I replaced the abs sensor.
