2001 Lincoln Navigator 4X4 STUCK IN 4 high

Most likely, they were kind of a problem to begin with. In the future, you should NEVER try for 4lo when moving.

Looks like you just remove the 4 bolts holding it and pull it off. Reverse for install

Hi my husband took the it off and the motor it works ok..put it back and it still stuck like it is still in 4x4 high.. I am having a hard time turning the wheel when I turn into parking space..is there anything else he can do.
thanks

Have the powertrain scanned for codes, Autozone will do it for free.

Will it be safe to drive there to autozone..in general safe to drive at all?
thank you so much!

Not really good for it, but need to see if it has any codes

Hi I took it to Autozone like you said and they read no codes..What to check next before taking it to the shop. Please more ideals?
thanks

took in to ford dealer they replace the clip and plastic cam and after 600.00 later and almost a week...we got it back..still drives like it is in stuck still in 4 high. do you think they didn't fix it.
It still turns like it is in 4 high. very stiff and makes a grinding noise when I turn and turn in parking spaces too

1st no you didn't tear up the shift motor.
2nd failing to shift out of 4x4 may have gotten your truck to give up trying to get it out of 4x4, disconnect battery to reset.
3rd 4x4 Low shouldn't engage while moving or in drive if I remember correctly.
4th 4x4 can get stuck especially on dry asphalt. Drive in a strait line for a short distance on a flat surface. (Sand or gravel is best) shift to N take your foot off the break let the truck settle break R let it engage then go back to N flip the 4x4 Sw back to AWD/2WD give it 20 seconds to disengage. If that doesn't do it disconnect the battery start it back up sw to n and give it another 20 seconds. If you were on pavement try again or find some sand... the problem is that resistance you feel cornering makes it hard for it to disengage and the computer will give up to avoid burning up the shift motor. If this doesn't work on sand after 2 tries your probably looking at a mechanical or electrical issues not just stuck.
