The T/C has a electrical/magnetic operated clutch (single brown wire on T/C) which is deenergized when in the off/auto position,

12vdc is applied to this clutch when switched to 4hi (no motor movement), engaging the front shaft.

When switched from 4hi to 4 low the motor turns a shaft in the T/C, changing the gear ratio.

Fist things first, check and see if you have B+ power on the brown wire to the clutch when the switch is in 4hi.

If no, find out why
if yes, then the clutch may need survicing.

I think it's in the rear of the transfer case. it should have some wires hanging off of it.
