4x4 motor problems!!!!

My truck has the electric shift on the fly 4x4 unit in it and im having some problems.Yesturday i used the 4x4 and worked fine.This morning i whent to use it and it isnt working at all.nothing comes on,on the dash and it isnt locking in.when i shut my truck off i could hear the motor on the transfer case running constant then it would stop, and a couple min later it would start running again.Now when i flick the switch it dosnt do anything what so ever no noise or any thing.So what should i look for is the motor shot?i checked the fuses and they were fine.any ideas will help thanks.

I would venture to say that yes, you need to replace the motor..

I think the whole truck is shot,I will buy it off you for $1000

I had to change the vacuum solonoid on mine one time but have not change the transfer case motor.Have not read of many problems with them but anything can go bad
