I'm assuming you have the electonic shift on the fly. If you turn your vents on high and then shift to 4X4, does the defroster come on? If so you have3 a vacuum leak. I just went throught this on my '02. In my case it turned out to be the vacuum selenoid.

If you could put the transfer case in 4 wheel drive manually you have a bad electric motor on the transfer case.
