Rear locker safety now disabled

Thanks Phong! That was one of the best & easiest mods ever. Now I can lock in 4Lo, 4Hi or 2WD.

This thread just reminded me how much I miss my e-locker.

What a great mod to the e-locker!

I need to get off my and do this mod. I'm kicking myself right now because I just had the kick panel off a couple of weeks ago. I am going to leave the 5mph safty intact.

Hey Scott,

There are 2 safeties in regards to activating the factory electric locker. One safety is so you can only enable it when you're in 4Lo on the transfer case. The second safety is so you can only enable it when travelling less than 5 mph.

Most of us tend to disable the 4Lo safety, so we can lock in any mode, but leave the 5 mph safety untouched so no one (i.e. significant other) can try to lock it by accident, going faster than 5 mph.
