Truck is in my signature. Been to the dealership 3 times now for the same issue. Without trying to use 4wd the 4X4 light in the dash starts blinking. Most times it's at start up of the truck. The when it's doing this sometimes you can switch the 4x4 knob and it goes into 4wd and other times it does nothing and continues to blink. If you try and get it to shift while blinking it sometimes will stop working all together (like the TC is in neutral) and tonight it tried shifting into low range at 40 MPH (lots of grinding and banging) not good. The dealer has replaced the shift motor twice. The module that controls it once or twice, checked every connector pin and wire. They had it for a month over the summer, thought they had it this time? Of course now that it's winter and I need my truck the most and need 4wd it decides to take a sh!t again! Looking for some MAJOR help here. I know the tech at the dealership, he's tried everything and has a ton of time in it already and calls to Ford. Looking for something new to look for or someone who's had the same issue. Have had good luck with the truck other than this. This issue has been a total PITA! HELP PLEASE!

Probably should have put this in the tech section. Sorry. I'll still take any help! Mods move if need be?

I had a similar issue but it was trying to shift out of 4wd when engaged I found one of the relays was corroded inside I think the two relays are #2 and #58 if I can't remember for sure, I think #2 shifts into 4wd and #58 shifts it out hope this helps
