Hilux transfercase problem

A couple of quick things you could try.
Remove the 4x4 light switch off the side of the transfer case, it may be sticking. (Unlikely)
Remove the allen key grub screws that are on either side of the case. Behind the screw is a small long spring, at the other end of the spring is a small ball. These help hold it in gear and the ball may be sticking or something. (Unlikely)
Do these one at a time and then try to move it.
If those haven't worked remove the shifter and see if you can move the forks in the case using a big arse screw driver. The fork on the right is 2wd/4wd, the fork on the left is high N low. If you can move them then its in the shifter itself. If not then its in the case.
Other then them thins it'd be a remove the whole case and pull it apart to look.
