Shift on the fly 4x4 issue...
yeah well for our sake... i have come to the conclusion that it might just be the switch in my dash and thats what my buddy who works in a ford dealership maitinence department thinks to so i ordered a new one today ill get back to you to see if that was the issue
4WD switch resistance and relays
I'm not sure if this will help you out, but let us know if it was the switch that caused the problem.
Well its been a while but I figure I'd give an update. After removing the three screws holding the contact plate that has 5 wires coming off of it, I found the plate had three dots located in the 12, 4, and 8 o'clock positions which I assumed indicates 2hi, 4hi, and 4lo but not necessarily in that particular order. I noticed that the half moon **** in the center of the plate was pointed off towards the 11 o'clock and 5 o'clock position, made a quick adjustment so that it pointed towards the dot located on the 12 o'clock position, now the **** is pointed at 12 and 6 o'clock.

Took it out for a test drive and it shifted in and out of 2hi and 4hi with no problems and best of all is that now the 4x4/4hi light turns off when shifting back to 2hi.
