4x4 for one dummy!

Hello all.. I am in a pickle. 2001 ranger 4x4
Somehow yesterday the switch got pushed over to 4 low on my dash. I didn't have a clue what was happening drove it home about 5 miles. Suggestion was once I found out what the issue was to switch it back to 2wd. I did.. The 4 low light is still on and the truck is still rollin in 4 low.

Any thoughts on how to get her back to 2wd?

Thanks for the welcome

Ok.. He had me go through the steps in case it happend again. Here is what I did.

Started the truck, put in in neutral.
Turned the truck off, turn the ignition to the on position, without starting the truck.
Turn from 4 low to 4 high, and then to 2wd.
Put it park, turned the key off.. Started back up .. TADA!

Hope this will help someone else.
