Ok all I put it in 4x4 today just to get out the lane then back to 2wd went about 6mile came to a give way stopped went to turn a sharp right and was like the brakes was on I guess was still in 4wd? Flicked the switch seemed to sort it think it could be the 3 transfer switch on box? Many thanks

If there's any tension in the drive train the transfer case servo won't unlock 4WD. Tension is usually created when turning - and released by turning the other way or having a wheel slip. Consider the number of revolutions a wheel on the outside of a tight turn would have to do, compared to the number of revolutions the wheel on the inside would have to do. This difference causes strain in the drive train and stops 4WD from disengaging.

A few changes of direction, or sometimes stopping and reversing, will free it up enough to let the system disengage. It's generally not a problem.
