92 F150 4X4 E4OD PROBLEM...PLEASE HELP

I just bought a 92 F150 4X4 EXT CAB with a 5.0 and the E4OD auto trans with the 4X4 push buttons on the dash. It has one button for regular 4X4 and one button for low range 4X4. Regular 4x4 works great and both of the indicator lights come on. Then, if I push the button to go into 4X4 Low range, neither of the indicator lights come on and I'm thinking it's probably not engaging into low range 4X4. Can some one shed some light on this for me.


Thanks guys and please chime in with any help, please.

Many Thanks,

Rick

Are you putting the transmission in neutral before pushing the button for 4 Low?

Give that a try. If that doesn't work, I'd bet that the problem lies in either the switch or the actuator on the transfer case.

I'll give your suggestion a try. By any chance have you ever taken the dash cluster (instrument panel) out of this vintage truck. If so how do you do it?

Thanks,
Rick
