They have issues with the electronic actuator motor on the transfer case, so would start there. Have had them just jam up. just pull it off and put it back on and all good.

Or it could be a prob with the motor itself

had a mate have a similar problem on a surf a few yrs ago, although his got stuck in 4wd and we had to reverse the air lines to get it 2 get out of 4wd so we could get it home, his was sumtin to do with the solinoid valve from memory
