Okay. I've mentioned this before, and everyone has told me theirs work fine. I was again out wheeling this Friday. I could not get it into rear locker only after I used front and rear for an obstacle needing both lockers. I like to run just the rear to give me better steering. It will attempt to disengage and bounce back and forth. I tried on level ground making sure there is no tension on the axles. I tried in neutral, in park, nothing. Since I got the Tazer, I am probably going to run the lockers on separate switches without the nannies and turn off the OEM locker feature all together.

I saw the AZ YT guy do it. (The guy named after one of the stooges. LOL)

Do you guys have a suggestion before I buy the 2 line Mopar connectors at $60/piece?

BTW. I do not have any warning light to service on my dash.

Thanks.

Not a problem with a Sport. My UD44 has no nannies to interfere.

J/k after earlier. In all seriousness did you examine or pot the sensors during a diff oil change or regear? That’s my first suspicion, but hard to examine without draining diffs.

No issues. I should get a warning light for service if the sensor couldnt place the locker position. I looked at the Z locker bypass. Some folks have assessed that the small bits of metal in the fluid can mess up the sensor too. I changed the diff fluid.
I've done a lot of research. My sheeit doesnt work like it did in my TJ. Time to go air. LOL

I still have my locker harnesses hooked to my aux switches 3 and 4…. They’re tied and tucked up out of harms way. They are in a backup role now that I use the Tazer most of time…If you decide to go with harness just know that there will be a “service axle “ that pops up on start up then goes away, and a little chassis symbol with an explanation point light next to it that stays on next to the fuel gauge. Knowing what/why these dash codes were coming on, helped me not care they were there…….lol….
