Stuck in 4WLo

Was using my 01 super duty to back a light trailer across the pasture. Disconnected trailer & switched back to 2WD but dash indicator still lighted as 4WD Lo & front is still engaged...what did I do? (250,818 miles) Thanks!

Make sure you’re stopped, in neutral, and foot on the brake before shifting it out of 4lo to 4hi (then 2wd)

I had it take me about 2 minutes to get out of 4lo one time when plowing.

It just seems finicky when shifting out of 4lo
