that flashing is almost like a CEL for the 4wd system....you need to have somebody who has a scanner of communicating with the control module to see what the problem is...your control module might have taken a crap on you

If your module went out, its expensive to replace. Honestly I would try to find a manual t-case and get manual hubs, the money spent doing that, is way better than replacing parts that will just break again
