Hoping I can be of some help. The easiest thing to try with those electronic shift styles when they're acting up is just playing around with it for a while. My dads buddy has a truck with electronic transfer case shift and it wasn't working all the time. Before he took it to a shop my dad told him to try playing around with it (engage disengage, engage disengage etc.). After a while he said it worked and its been shifting fine. He didn't use his super frequently just once in a while, I guess these electric shift ones can get a little funny if they sit a while. Just something easy to try, hope it helps!
