Default 4 wheel drive
I have a 2004 F-150. When I put my truck in 4 wheel drive the front wheels are not engaging.

If it is an electronic shift on the fly, its common for the switches to go bad. thats where i would start.

those shift on the fly systems are a pain, thats why every truck i own from now on will have a manual transfer case.
