Shift motor on the transfer case is only to shift into 4x4 low. Vehicle is always in 4x4 mode in the transfer case. Disconnecting the vacuum lines from the actuators will engage the the front hubs manually. System works on vacuum constantly being applied to the hubs when. Not in 4x4 mode. When you turn the switch to 4x4 mode it removes the vacuum from the actuators and they mesh with the hubs.. transfer case could be bad too but that’s unlikely. But not impossible. Remove and pinch the vacuum lines at the hubs and see what happens.
I have a 2010 f150 and when I turn the switch to 4 wheel drive the wrench light comes on I have already replaced the vacuume solenoid and when I went to the dealer they first told me it was transmission I went to Same dealer different location they said not transmission but transfer case what is gonna happen when I go to the next dealer maybe tell me it’s the engine
I bought a 2013 f150 over the summer and just found out my 4x4 isnt working, light comes on in dash saying its on but it is not... it never says 4 auto either just 4x4high not sure what to do

I have looked at mine. Only partially engages. It still has vacuume in 4x hi and low. But less then in 2wd. Lights say 4x4 but not engaging. Going to change the solenoid motor under drivers side door attached to transmission. Only thing left to check
2013 actuator not disengaging, keeps braking actuator plastic housing for gear. Does the TCCM work with the actuator somehow? I've replaced reservoir, solenoid, check valve, vacuum line, actuators, hub including half shaft.
Everyone having 4x4 issues on the 04-12 F150, watch this video: https://youtu.be/m6b7FQOsbvI
