I don't think there is a way to "reset" the 4x4. You need to explain the symtoms & someone will give advice or point you in the right direction. As I understand it, disconnecting the battery will only erase/resetany codes in the computer making it difficult to diagnose the problem. It may just be a faulty switch on the dash. You may need to check for leaks in the vacuum lines first. This I think is the most probable cause. From there it gets tricky, trust me, I've just been throught it & ended up replacing the t/case. Thank "whoever" for extended waranties. LOL. Then there's the vacuum actuator (under the battery), the TCCM (in the pass. kick panel), the transfer case switch (on the t/case) & finally the front axle. Hopefully yours is a simple problem.

We have changed all vacuum leaks ,changed out the value on the transfer case that goes to the vacuum it was froze in place , when we replaced the bearings and hooked up the cables we thought that maybe it would have to be reset for the 4 wheel drive lights to work they stay yellow maybe it does need a new switch , we also freed up the actuator I think that is what it is called ,thats why I was wondering if we took the battery cables off it would reset ,Let me know on this and thank you
