@CarbonSteel I don’t want to derail the locker sensor thread, so I’ve started this new one.
When you have a minute, can you give your feedback on the HF drill press you have? I like to buy HF tools when I know I won’t use them very often. (Milwaukee, Tekton, Dewalt and Bosch for my daily...
I would say no to Dremel being easier, and I love my Dremel.
Certainly a drill press is handy, but not sure how you’d feel the moment of breakthrough (the back is black, so unclamping to inspect and then realigning and reclamping seems like it’d be a PITA). I don’t own one, so maybe I’m wrong...
My general feeling is that it’s snake oil, and not needed. Jeeps are noisy. Turn up the radio.
That said, Seafoam is a wonderful product. For injectors, specifically, my mechanic had me use this in my wife’s GMC when it was throwing an injector code: Chevron 9280-6PK Techron Fuel Injector...
All done! Lockers engage and disengage super fast. Maybe they always did and I was just hyper aware while testing.
@chevymitchell your procedure worked great! Suggestion: add @word302's tip about jacking driver's side to make dif bolts accessible to post #1. It's probably common knowledge to...
Well, step one is done.
EFF THOSE DIFF COVER BOLTS ON THE TOP.
A couple of tips that I haven’t seen mentioned:
Milwaukee M12 3/8” ratchet made diff cover removal much easier than hand tools would have been
Neither my Milwaukee nor my Tekton ratchet could squeeze in to get the very top bolt...
Dealers don’t know details like these. If you read through the gazillion pages of the thread dedicated to this recall you can see JeepCares chimes in a few times. It’s confirmed to be a software fix and its number is Y07.
I bet we see it at the end of this month or early next. Just my guess...
As @Rhinebeck01 alluded to, the TSB and jumper alone isn’t likely to do the trick. Why? Because that AUX is still connected and the jumper pack will be connected to two batteries.
If you take the one extra step of disconnecting the AUX I suspect a jumper would work. Many of us run this way...
Would something like this help?

Or what about using a Dremel?
Amazon finally delivered my potting epoxy, so I’m gearing up to tackle this.
Oh, anyone have an opinion on using CRC MAF cleaner instead of Electronics cleaner...
