4x4 Indicator Light is Backwards
4x4 Indicator Light is Backwards
Will try to keep this short:
Someone moved my truck by just throwing the transfer case in neutral and pushing the truck (not far just in the driveway).
I got in later to head home and it was in 2WD but the 4x4 indicator light was on. I played with it some and it is completely backwards right now. If I put the transfer case in 2WD it shows 4x4 on the dash. If I put in into 4x4 the light goes out!
This only started happening after the truck was moved.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'd say it's time to prank your buddies back 
Go ahead and disconnect the battery as the first troubleshoot. If that doesn't work, start tracing wires. I don't know what the sensor or switch looks like. Any chance the connection was intentional swapped to be opposite?

Thanks for the help....
It's a manual T-case and for now I just unplugged the wires going to the switch. I'm assuming the switch itself got messed up and when I get a chance to pull it and fix it I will do so but for now I'm just happy that the light is off.
