Default 2006 F150 FX4 4x4 not engaging

Can anyone help me on this. My 4x4 will not engage. The dealer said the motor needed to be replaced, but would not warrent the warrentee. It works sometimes and the last 6 months it worked until now and it will not engage. This problem comes and goes and seems to be going more now. Relays are all okay.

Hey, thanks for the advice. I will try this when I get home today. It seems with it working and not working this just may be the problem.
