Explorer 4wd Low - Lockup

1ST TIME POST:
MY DAUGHTER HAS A 2002 EXPLORER, ONCE PARKED AND SHUT OFF THEN RESTARTED, ITS LOCKED IN 4 LOW. FRONT AXLE BANGS WHEN IN REVERSE AND DRIVE, NO 4WD LIGHTS ON. THEN JUMPS OUT AND INTO AWD AFTER A MINUTE.
4W HI LIGHT COMES ON EVERY FIVE MINUTES AND FLASHES EIGHT TIMES. I CALLED THE FORD DEALER WHERE IT WAS SERVICED LAST THEY SAID IT NEEDED A 4WD TRANSFER MODULE LOCATED BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX. I REPLACED THE MODULE AND WE STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM $250.00 LATER. I ALSO CLEANED THE MULTIPLE PRONG PLUG AT THE TRANSFER MOTOR STILL NO SUCCESS.
ANY THOUGHTS?

Take a look at your wiring dagrams is there a 10 buck relay that might be stuck on??.

The wiring diagram for a 97 does show a "transfer case shift relay." Your 02 probably has this relay also.

I have the same truck, and I am having the same exact problem. I work with a Ford Master Tech, and I'm going to get some insight from him. I'll post back if I learn anything.
