Hey there pusher, welcome to FTE!

If I remember right the light doesn't come on until the T-case is locked in. It's extremely common to have problems with the automatic locking hubs. Try manually locking your front hubs and see if that works. If so you have a problem with either the hubs or the vacuum system that controls them.
