4WD not engaging

Hi, Newbie here. I have a 2000 4runner SR5 with a 5spd manual. My problem is I can't get the 4wd to engage. I have done a search and read all of the articles but I can't seem to figure this out. I took the vehicle to the dealership and told them to diagnose the problem. they said it was a transfer case switch/sensor part number 84222-35110. They didn't have one on hand and I didn't want to pay them to fix it, just diagnose. I ordered the part online and replaced it. Still no 4wd.

The front driveline locks up when placed in 4Hi but the front wheels will not turn when jacked up off the ground. I don't get the 4wd indicator light on the dash either. I'm assuming my ADD is working correctly because the front driveline locks up when placed in 4HI and turns freely when put back into 2HI?

This is my daughters vehicle and she needs 4wd. More snow headed this way this weekend too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
