You might want to check the gear selector switch that is located on the driver side of the tranny, if the 4x4 is electric and not manual for engagement, selector must read neutral to disengage 4 wheel drive. by experience if you drove it through deep water gear selector switch can get damaged.

Dodge 2001 4x4 Dakota Sport- Replaced the Transfer Case Motor but it still will not go onto 4WD. What do I do Next?

try checking your silinoid. Some of these newer vehicles have an electronic silinoid that is responsible for engaging your transfer case into four wheel drive. Also if you have push button or shift on the fly four wheel drive your switch may have gone bad. I hope this helps you.

4 wheel drive does not work and the four wheel drive lights flash when you try to put it in four wheel drive. i have tried to replace the four wheel drive switch and it does the same thing.

There is a four wheel drive relay unit located up under your dashboard on the passenger's side that has gone bad. 2 bolts hold it in, and just a wire bundle connector to plug into. Costly to replace. Maybe about $200 just for the 4 WD relay unit.

I have a 2001 GMC Yukon that will not shift into four wheel drive. I can hear the click, when I push the button and the light blinks but it will not remain solid and I dont think I should drive it without...

it sounds to me like the motor that switches the transfer case into 4 wheel drive DO NOT try to put it in 4 wheel. There should be no problem driving it as it is but if you continue to try it may get stuck in between and cause major problems
