Crap...more trans issues. 4WL isn't engaging??

Hi everyone. Another frustrating morning with my 2002 tacoma (98,000 miles).

I went to engage my 4WL this morning after a storm and it doesn't seem to engage with any power. The engine revs and the truck moves but I have little to no power while the rpms revs. Conversly, my 4WD high works fine.

I haven't used my 4WD L since before I had my front/rear diff and transfer fluids changed about 1.5 months ago. I didn't get it done at the dealer. Could they have not filled it up with enough or the wrong stuff?

My AT fluid seems ok (may be a tad low) when measuring while hot.

Everything else appears normal. My 4WD light turns on and there is nothing else I can see.

Finally, the last time I was at the dealer they didn't recommend getting a AT flush till about 110K? My truck has never had one. I don't think I agree with them.

Thanks for any assistance
