OK same as many on here, I'm a bit mechanically inclined. My truck is a 2001. Out this past week and went to engage the 4x4 light just flashing indicating it hasn't engaged if I wait awhile it goes back to 2wd. It will do this in auto, 4Hi, 4Lo. When this happened on my 1999 it was just a loose plug going into the front diff.

I also unplugged the computer and checked the connections there is no corrosion.

I have checked the vac actuator it seems to work I removed the battery (hooked it back using cables) I can see the actuator move. I can here the same light clunk from the transfer case as if it is moving and also the sound of the encoder motor (I think).

One thread also talked about a solenoid???

Where are the vac line I have to check.
Where is this switch on the front Front Diff can I test it?
What is the Vac switch on TC where do I find it?
Cable is not broken

How do I test the vac switch on the transfer case, before replacing?

Thanks all
