There single pin bullet connectors in the front diff. 4wd is near the rear of the front diff and lock is towards the front.

If I remember right their under plastic covers.
Is this it?

Yes, there are 2 of those, 1 for each position.
Most likely the 4wd is just bad or it's not actually engaging 4wd.

If the PCM/Meter doesn't see 4wd indicated, it won't show diff lock. Does it switch between 2wd and turf ok? It could be an adjustment in the rear box as well.

I only saw one of these on the diff I will look again but my buddy did break that wire wile we were installing the rack so maybe that’s why it will go into 4wd but not show it? And it will not show me going into two wheel diff lock either so maybe I messed up the rear one when I pulled the diff idk turf mode is not working either but I have the box soaking in penetrating oil cause screw won’t turn also any idea where I can get some of those connectors I can’t find them

There just a female bullet connector. I could get you a number for the connector part but it won't have the rubber hat/cover on it. Honda only sells them in packs of 25 I think though.
