4WD intermittent

Spent a couple hours trying to find a thread with this problem. 2011 F350 SRW Lariat, so 4wd shift ****. When cold, doesnt want to shift in. when I get it in, doesn't want to come out. Works fine in warmer weather. Last 2 times, if left locked in 4WD overnight, would come out overnight on it's own.

Any suggestions as to which part I should be looking at?

Do you have a feel if it's the transfer case or the hub's.... If you manually lock the front hubs does that change anything?

I don't think it is the hubs. Sometimes I get 4L but no 4H and so on. I get the error light on the dash. I'm thinking if it was hubs, it would be consistent and I don't think I would get the message on the message center.
