removing the fuses did not work. But, I disconnected the battery for about half hour to reset the computer and it reset the 4x4 back to auto, Walla! So if your car is stuck on a any of the low or high 4x4 this should work to rest it for you as well.
IC you just fixed my truck. I have a 2002 XLT and both of the Low/High lights were on when it started and was essentially stuck in 4wd mode until it eventually kicked into AUTO mode for regular driving. I unplugged the battery for 30 mins and like all 2000 era computers once it rebooted.... its back to normal.

02 Ford Explorer auto trans I can't get it out of 4 low
I have a 2003 Explorer which was also stuck in 4x4 low. Tried all the tricks mentioned. None of them worked for me. Turned out it was a simple fix. In the Power Distribution Box there are two 20 amp fuses #18 and # 17. They are labeled as 4x4 (v- batt 1) and 4x4 (v-batt 2). In my case # 18 was blown. Changed it, problem solved.
