This 4X4 Engage Solenoid is just what you need to get your four wheel drive system working again! The factory solenoids commonly fail due to cracking and leaking, resulting in failure of the four wheel drive system.
Specifications:
Note: There are two solenoids located side by side in the housing; engagement & disengagement. The simple way to know which is which is the key way location: holding the solenoid with the connector at the top and vacuum lines on the bottom, the engagement solenoid key way will be at the 9 o'clock position (to the left), the disengagement solenoid key way will be at the 6 o'clock position (bottom).
If one of the two solenoids fail, the 4 wheel drive system will be inoperative. Both solenoids must be functioning properly for the system to operate.
Returns: Parts with electrical components cannot be returned once installed.

Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the four wheel drive solenoid on a 2004 Ford F150. You're going to need a new solenoid from 1A Auto and a flat pocket screwdriver.
A lot of times on these F150's, the solenoid will go bad and then it actually will make the hub activators or actuators go bad. We'll show you . if you check out or other videos, you'll see how to replace the hub actuators as well. A four wheel drive vacuum solenoid is against the firewall back behind the battery. Use a pocket screwdriver to push in the clip and pull it up out of the way. Remove the two vacuum hoses. Use the flat head screwdriver again to pry up on the harness connector. Slide it off.
I've got the old part and identical replacement part from 1A Auto. I'm putting on the vacuum lines. Once you got those vacuum lines on, go ahead and push it back on to its bracket, so that it clips right back in, which will make reinstalling the connector harness to it that much easier. Go ahead and plug it back in.

On this Ford F-150, your engage solenoid should be on the driver's side, or general location is passenger's side, but this is towards the driver's side. You can make sure it's the engage one by unplugging it and this key way should be in the 9:00 position.
To remove, use a bent tip awl. There's just a little tab back here that you need to push back. Then you push the solenoid down, pull it up and out, and remove the vacuum lines.
Install the new engage solenoid. Make sure that it has the key way at the 9:00 position, put it down and in, and it should slide right up and in, and click in place. Then you can reconnect your vacuum lines, push firm, and then reconnect your electrical lead.
