2004 5.3L service 4wd light
Service 4wd light recently came on. A mechanic friend of mine put it on the computer and told me the transfer case motor was gone. I've called a few autoparts shops and no one has a motor for my model....only 99-02 .....truck has auto, 4 hi, lo and 2hi ...anyone else out there with this problem or know what year's are compatable? Any help would be appreciated

I forgot to mention that the light would go out when i turned the truck off and iwould be able to use 4 wd..(i could hear the motor working)asneeded until tonight all lights have gone out and i can't switch into 4wd at all. I'm was also hearing some noises in my dash since a bit.

Hi i had the same problem and found it to be the switch in the dash. If you are confident with a soldering iron and willing to take 15 min. to fix the problem.
remove the dash and the switch and take the switch in to the house for disassembly.Then after you get the switch apart look close at the solder joints where the 2 plugs pins are. mine had the ground side solder joint broken. I just resoldered all the pins and reinstalled the switch. Now i have no more problems.
