[QUOTE="DILLARD000, post: 1040475, member: 74901"] Make sure you've got the correct parts; 4x4 ConMods for before 2001 & after 2005 are not compatible. You could unbolt the ShiftMotor from the TransCase (3+1 bolts), with ParkingBrake engaged & Transmission in Neutral & wifes foot on brake pedal, have wife switch from 2WHi~4WHi~4WLo & back again while you watch the ShiftMotor below, see if it rotates like it should. If ShiftMotor rotates correctly, try manually rotating 1354 TransCase stem with ViseGrips.; it could be having an internal mechanical issue. Nows a good time to Drain+Refill MerconLV in the TransCase; make sure its MerconLV not MerconV. Did you buy new parts or JY parts,; either way could be a bad part, or a wiring harness issue. Once you do get it back working, best to engage & short drive the 4x4 system once a month; to confirm that it works, before you really need it & it don't. Part numbers & more details on the 2001~2005 ExST 4x4 system at [URL unfurl="true"]https://2001fordexplorersporttrac.fandom.com/DriveTrain_TransferCase[/URL] Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
