First off, i have the electronic shift 4 wheel drive. I was driving to class this morning when i look down at the dash and see the 4x4 high and 4x4 low lights flash on and off. About a minute later, they flashed on and off again a few more times. When I got into the parking lot, I tried to put it into 4x4 hi just to see what was wrong, but nothing happened. I turned the little knob, and no lights lit up, no sounds were made. Anybody ever experience this before? Please Please PLEASE help, I kinda need 4 wheel drive.
 
yea mine has been doing that a while now, at first i fixed it with filling up the transfer case with fluid and then it locked in with no problem but every since i had a bass system put in it it went back to doing exactly what your saying.
 
Check all the connections running to the t-case motor. I had this happen to me once... and it stopped after about an hour or so... Then I got stuck in a ditch in 2wd, but it still shifted to 4lo...

I'd give the motor a good cleaning and check the connections.
 
yeah well i got out of class on monday and decided to try it out again in the parking lot. and it worked perfectly. in fact, i went wheelin later on that afternoon and it worked without a problem. so yeah. problem solved? for now at least.
