    Well guys I went to move my truck in the snow and put it in 4 wheel low and it when in ok but now it won't come back out. I tried driving it around and still stuck in 4 low and if I move the switch to 2w or 4H it just beeps. What is this telling me and how can I fix it? The truck is stock 2005 with 75000 miles. Thanks for any help.

    The beep is indicating conditions are not met to go into or come out of 4 low, you have to be in neutral A/T or have the clutch fully depressed M/T and be under 3 MPH Before you switch the switch.

    Sure enough, I just put it into neutral then switched to 4H and it went out and then to 2H and all is good. Thanks for the help guys.

    The beeping indicated it never attempted to go into 4Lo.
