Sorry that wasn't the problem, I have no idea what would be the problem. Let me know if I can help...good luck!
Here's some more "stuff"...

ECM test procedure
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) has a diagnostic capability of its internal circuitry. Self test procedure is as follows:
Remove the Five-Wire Connector and the Eight Wire Connector from the ECM.
Turn ignition switch to the RUN position.
Control Module Self Test
Activate the system self-test by pressing and releasing the self-test switch. Note the results as indicated by the indicator light: NOTE: The self test switch and indicator light are located on the ECM.
A FLASHING Indicator Lamp, (approximately one flash per second) indicates that the ECM is functioning properly.
A STEADY Indicator Light indicates that the ECM is inoperative and must be replaced.
ECM Circuit testing
There are three wiring harnesses connected to the Electronic Control Module (ECM) :
The Eight-Wire Pigtail Harness Connector.
The Five-Wire Harness Connector.
The Eight-Wire Harness Connector.
To check the integrity of these circuits, disconnect the harnesses from the ECM and perform the following checks:

EIGHT-WIRE PIGTAIL HARNESS CONNECTOR
Eight-wire Pigtail Harness Connector (Electronic Shift)
Connect a voltmeter between terminal 8 and ground . The voltmeter should indicate battery voltage at all times.
Connect a voltmeter between terminal 7 and ground , then turn ignition switch to RUN position. The voltmeter should indicate battery voltage. CAUTION: In the following sections where the usage of an ohmmeter is specified, always remember that an ohmmeter should NEVER be connected into a "live" or powered circuit. If the ohmmeter is subjected to a powered circuit, severe damage will be done to the instrument. The vehicle's battery should be disconnected before performing checks on any circuit with an ohmmeter to prevent any accidental damage to the instrument.
Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 6 and ground . The ohmmeter should indicate less than 10 ohms resistance .
Connect an ohmmeter between terminals 4 and 5 . The ohmmeter should indicate less than 10 ohms resistance .
Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 3 and ground . The ohmmeter should indicate 0 ohms .
Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 2 and ground . The ohmmeter should indicate 0 ohms .

FIVE-WIRE PIGTAIL HARNESS CONNECTOR
Fig. 7 Five-wire Pigtail Harness Connector (Electronic Shift)
Connect an ohmmeter between terminals 1 and 2 , then DEPRESS the 4x4 (2H-4H) switch . The ohmmeter should indicate a very "low" resistance value (less than 50 ohms) while the switch is being DEPRESSED.
Connect ohmmeter between terminals 1 and 3 , then DEPRESS the Low Range switch . The ohmmeter should indicate a very "low" resistance value (less than 50 ohms) while the switch is being DEPRESSED.
Connect a test lead between terminals 4 and ground , then turn ignition switch to RUN position and observe the indicator lights. The light in the instrument panel and Low Range Bar should illuminate .
Connect a test lead between terminal 5 and ground , then turn ignition switch to RUN and observe the indicator lights. The lights in the instrument panel and 4x4 Bar should illuminate .

EIGHT-WIRE HARNESS CONNECTOR
Eight-wire Pigtail Harness Connector (Electronic Shift)
Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 1 and ground . On a vehicle equipped with a Manual Transmission (M/T) , DEPRESS the clutch pedal and observe the ohmmeter. The ohmmeter should indicate a "low" resistance (less than 50 ohms) while the clutch pedal is being depressed. If vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Transmission (A/T) , shift the transmission into the "NEUTRAL" position and observe the ohmmeter. The ohmmeter should indicate a "low" resistance (less than 50 ohms) while the transmission selector lever is in the "NEUTRAL" position.
Connect an ohmmeter between terminals 2 and 3 . The ohmmeter should indicate a "low" resistance (200-350 ohms) . This will check the continuity of the speed sensor that is located in the transfer case. The speed sensor picks up the rotating speed of the output shaft from two notches that are cut in opposite sides of the outer ring of the clutch housing assembly.

Checking Ohmmeter Reading For Shift Motor Position Sensor (Electronic Shift) Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 8 and terminals 4, 5, 6 and 7 , respectively. Refer to the illustration for the appropriate ohmmeter readings in each transfer case position.
