Sorry for the delayed response. At this point you have one of three things occurring in the four wheel drive system.
1. Tcase position sensor not working. This would prevent the TIPM from determining what position it's in which would cause it to not engage the FAD (not likely based on findings above).
2. Internal FAD actuator failure.
3. Wiring issue between the TIPM and the FAD.
To really narrow it down much further from this point, you would need a scan tool that allows you to monitor the position sensors in the TIPM. If you are able to get access to one, you would need to look at t-case position. It should match the position of your shifter knob. If it never changes to 4HI and continually displays "shift in progress" after you've placed the knob in 4HI, that indicates a position sensor failure at the t-case. If it changes state the way it should, I would suspect a failed FAD actuator at that point.
