1997 ford f-150 4x4 problem by rummel

I have no power at my 4x4 switch. I can manually put it in four wheel by taking the
electric motor off the transfer case and turning the knob on the transfer case and locking in the front axle actuerator. All my fuses are good, where do I go from here? I got a feeling its this thing called a generic electronic module where is it.

No as of yet I have not but i did learn there are some sort of shift plates in the electric motor that tells the computer what position the motor is in so then the computer will know how to shift, if the computer can't read it it will not respond. I put a new motor on mine and nothing happened so i took the motor back now i find out you have to reset the computer so it will respond i read you can just unhook the battery to reset it i have to wait to get some money before i try again. Let me know what happens if you get to it before i do.

Would you happen to also have an owners manual for an 88 F150 320 automatic?

05 F-250 super duty 6L diesel. When I have the AC on and then switch to 4X4 the air flow leaves the AC vent and goes to the Defrost vent. The only way to make it go back to the AC vent is shift back to 2 wheel drive turn the engine off and restart the engine

I had the same problem with my '99 F250 with automatic locking hubs. Are you sure the hubs are locking? Mine stopped working on auto, I haven't had any more trouble with the A/C but I have to lock my hubs manually when I want 4 wheel drive.
  There is a big yellow O-ring on the bearing assembly that makes the seal for the vacuum. You can take the bearing assembly off clean it real good, replace the O-ring and that will fix it for a while. If you use your truck off road alot it won't last long. I suppose it don't take much dust or dirt to break the seal of the vacuum.
  I personally would rather get out and lock my hubs as to change those O-rings again! Good luck
