no 4wd light

My dad's 2002 7.3 excursion dosent get the 4WD or 2wd light when the transfer case selector is flipped. We hear the t-case motor working and flipping throught ranges, but no light on the dash. All other dash lights work and all the fuses are fine, any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

when you first turn the ignition on, does the light come on? if not, maybe just a bad bulb. oh, there is no light for 2wd.

first of all, just to make sure we're on the same page. The X is supposed to be driving when the OTF 4x4 Hi is engaged. Then, to shift to low range, put it in neutral/park and shift to low range.

is it only the 4x4 light that doesn't come on? Does the low range light come on when in low range?

you can try it, but I doubt its the bulbs. Because there are two separate bulbs (4wd and low range) I think the chances are pretty low that they both just happened to go out, but I dunno.
