I have a 2000 S10 Blazer and mine did something similar in December 2009. I would have it in 2WD while driving somewhere, but when I shut off the engine and stopped in somewhere, I would come back and find it stuck in 4Lo. It would even switch on it's own while I was stopped at a street light.. So I checked my vacuum hoses to make sure they weren't loose or didn't have any damage. And they were good. So I took the 4x4 module out from under my kick panel on the passenger side and tried cleaning some of the corrosion and it helped a little. But every now and again it would randomly get stuck in 4Lo. The mechanic I took it to thought it was the switch on the dash, even though I told them about the corrosion on the control module.. But they insisted it was the switch and they replaced that and it was still acting funny. But it turns out it was in fact the module under my kick panel because it was so corroded. I would've switched it out myself, but I'm not all that great with wiring.. I'm not 100% that's the same case for you..? Just thought I would share my story. Lol.
