Front axle engagement actuator (under battery). Check to see if it has vacuum. If not, it is the switch on the transfer case. If it does and the actuator does not pull in when vacuum is applied, the actuator is bad. If it does pull in, but still does not engage the front axle, the cable is likely froze up.

His explaation is about as "dumbed down" as it gets ...

But basically unplug it and see if it is sucking air.. if it is then that is a vaccum.
