lol, didn't see that... good idea by the way! 
i think the 4wd light comes on during the gauge test.
hold odometer trip meter in while turning key to "on" and continue to hold it in a couple more seconds till the odometer says CHEK.
4wd light switch is on drivers end of CAD. check, unplug, clean out the mud.
jumpering the 2 wires should illuminate the light on the dash.
switch is easily replaceable for about $20 or less, avail at autozone and everywhere else.

they probably made it a separate circuit because not all trucks have 4x4. its like an add on option when they're building it.
its just a cheap *** approach. that way they don't have to have different electronics for the 4x4 models.

haha,
I have been drinking for several hours. you should prolly just ignore any further comments from me for a while... lol
If you think about it, It just determines what it is, if it lights up, its the switch, If it doesn't, its the light or fuse. so i guess we're both right? lol

Or, it could be the wire is pinched/cut... which is what I suspect. I will un-hook the connector and jump it to see if the bulb shines again... if not, I'ma thinkn' the wire is cut somewhere's.
Thanks for all the replies fellas.
