I had just that problem as
well in a rodeo I used for work. Its not the gear box. The problem is quite common in the first of the Rodeos using the electric change to 4wd. It is an electrical fault and to do with the solinoid. I can't remember how we used to get over it. There is
junction box under rubber flooring under the drivers
seat . We used to re-set it from there. If you see a GM dealer I am sure they wiil explain what has to be done.
Hope this helps.

hi agroe,
i sometimes have a simular problem with my rodeo {18months old} from 4wd low to 4wd high,you must stop,then put into neutral,then engage 4 high,coming out of 4 high is also a problem,it seems to get "wind-up" easy,so just a cpl of ft in reverse does the trick. i have also found that if like me you play around with the dash,i sometimes push the 4 low button by mistake,
well i can tell you that makes a problem with windup,as the bloody car wont move to far or fast,and with traffic up ya bum,instant road rage. lol
hope that helps your problem a little more
regards
