  The transfer case is shift controlled electronically. There is a TCCM (Transfer
  Case Control Module + the encoder motor sensor + the selector switch on
  the dash. The problem may be in any one of those three. best to take it to
  a dealer and use the DRB scan tool to analyze the fault.

  I ended up having to take it in and the problem was the 4wd control chip which needed to be replaced. I think I ended up spending about $600 to get it fixed.
