Kermit, on your Renix style XJ there are 2 separate vacuum lines for your vacuum axle disco system. One runs from the TC to your front axle disco. The other runs from the TC to your "4x4" light switch which is on the passenger side firewall. It has, I believe, a light green or a white colored vacuum line going to it. Then the line goes on down to the 3rd vacuum connector on your axle disco. I'm betting you have a leaking vacuum line since your light is working half the time. The switch itself is probably still good.
