Can you shift a transfer case while moving?

How does a 4 wheel drive transfer case work?
It is powered by the transmission output shaft and operates much like a secondary transmission. Most 4WD transfer cases have four modes of operation: two-high, neutral, four-low, and four-high.

Press the button while the light is on to go back into two-wheel drive at any speed. Reverse the F350 to free the front hubs if they won’t free.

How to check the transfer case shift motor?
CLEARED. Haven’t run across this anywhere. Most folks seem to just replace and go. Cardone instructions also caution to orient the xfer case shaft TO THE MOTOR POSITION. Orienting the shaft to the motor position makes sense. Don’t have a scan tool to read/clear (GEM) codes.
