Need 4x4 help ASAP
Hey guys, I have an 01 F150 XLT 4.6 triton 4x4. I just went to use my four wheel drive and when I put it in gear the front doesnt pull.
In complete detail: Yes, I did give it a chance to drop into 4x4. Also my 4x4 light was on like normal. I noticed when I go 4 low, my light does say 4x4 and low range, and when I am in 4x4 low, and I go into gear, it wants to pull harder, like it should, but my front wheels will not spin. It feels like it wants to drop into 4x4, but just wont... any help would be very appreciated.

Have someone in the truck and try to shift it into 4 wheel drive while your under it to see if the actuator moves. Can tell you if it's the actuator or a vacuum issue. Could also be dirt jammed up on it, I've heard of others that this issue has happened to.

IWE solenoid is a common culprit...
