Could be the motor on the front axle is bad. Unfortunately, I dont know of a cheap and easy way to test that. You may just have to replace. Sorry for the vague answer.

Re: 1999 chevy 4x4 not working

On my 97 the solenoid (actuator) was weak. A tap on it popped it out of 4x4. $70 later, new solenoid, and back in business, in and out with ease now. Hope it is as simple for you!
