Well I noticed the other day while out wheeling that my e-locker won't engage. I drop her down in 4-LOW and hit the button, but it just sits there flashing. I have let it sit there for as long as 15 minutes and still nothing. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be? I'm thinking about just taking her to the dealership.......


Thanks

I had the same problem on my 98, until I started moving. I know it sounds like a dumb question, but have you started driving in 4LO while attempting to engage it?

Sometimes I would have to turn and then go straight again before it would lock in.

yea, you have to turn the wheel and drive in a S pattern to engage...i'm sure someone else will chime in...

Yeah I've drove around also, but it still didn't work. I'll give it another shot. Thanks for the help guys!!!

data, remember you may have to drive in a S formation to disengage...good luck!

I've had the same problem. It locks when it feels like locking. I find that if you can't get it to lock, turn the locker off. Move forward a little and stop. Then turn the locker on again, wait about 3 - 5 seconds. If it doesn't lock, inch forward a little and stop. Wait 3 - 5 again. If it doesn't lock, inch forward a little and stop. Wait 3 - 5 again. Wash, rinse & repeat. It will lock eventually.

Old topic brought back up again


Well now she has been totally locked for almost a week. Damn this thing. Anyone know anything to try?

I have to drive 10- 15 feet before mine locks.
I have also bypassed the computer so I can lock it in 2h or 4 h.

get the rear up in the air via a floor jack . lock it and spin the free tire uptill it locks if not then you got problems.

the problem is that it won't come unlocked
