I don't think supplying Sensor ground is going to do anything useful. I believe the two switches shown (Switch Locker Front and Switch Locker Rear) are the "sense" switches in the differentials that tell the system that the locker is engaged or not engaged. Remember there is only one switch on the dash.

We need more wiring info to do the mod like on the TJs. I should be able to get some information tomorrow.

Did a little testing tonight.. Figured out what wire coming from the T-case that supplys a sensor Ground when in low range.. With the jeep on and in 2WD I crossed the ground and both locker worked.. Therefore like stated before just supply the sensor ground to the control module.. I have no need to use the lockers independantly.. Either I just want the rear locked in or both but never just the front.. Everything works just like normal.. I can still use the stock switch and the lights will still notify me whats going on.. I will take some pictures and do a write this weekend...

Great job 1BADJK!!!! You just saved me a lot of work when I get my JK. I, too, am only interested in having control over the lockers whether in 4HI, 4LO, or 2HI. I don't need to wire them to operate independently, just operate when I want them to. I really look forward to reading and printing your write-up.

I was just about to post the exact same question. . . love to know if we can get some video out straight from the radio.

Many thanks, 1BADJK, for figuring out the wiring. And thanks also to Don-A-Vee for posting the underhood wiring sketch. I'm ready to go rewire the lockers. Oh, I forgot. I don't have a JK yet!

Where is that wire. I suppose under the center console. Just put a three-way switch to be able do put it back stock when necessary (read dealer services) and have real 4wd indication (good for my wife)
