I just converted to Warn manuals, now my selector switch won't engage the transfer case(actually, this happened before I replaced the hubs) Was wondering if anybody has had a similar problem and what the did to correct it. Thanks.
 






Have you even tried SEARCHING for this yet?

The problem is most likely (99%) your shift actuator.
There is an electric motor on the T case that does the shifting for you when you touch the button.

The motor gets dirty inside and stops working (cannot make up the contact)

Youcan go to Ford and buy a new one for $350 or you can remove it and clean it in about half an hour...

There are so many threads on how to do this including a complete writeup with pictures here:

Look under transfercase

Now You can also search this forum and find the how to all over the place.....

Rebuild that sucker and it will work like new.

Enjoy those manual hubs, auto hubs SUCK
 






thanks

I did a search first, but must haved used the wrong words, it didn't turn up much. After posting i did another search and found loads. Sorry for the inconveniece. The link was very helpful.
