riviving thread anyways back on the subject about lockers since i am running an atlas and after reviewing this thread and service manual the stock t case uses a 4 positing switch which i no longer have so for now to fake out the intergrated control module i will stick an inline resisitor between the sensor ground and sensor signal wire at the t case plug this will allow me to run my lockers anytime dash lights will still work except it will say 4lo all the time this a temp fix till advance adapters finish there module for the atlas upgrade speedo is next to figure out hopefully my homework works will post under my atlas wright up if it does

well slinky 07 im sure alot of others have done this already on there stock rubis my application is quite different but the factory t case has a 4 way switch installed on the top plunger style as noted on this thread it sends a signal back to the control module so if i were to this on a stock rubi you have several options ground the relays under the hood via swtches or just install a wire to a ground point to switch from switch to wire near t case plug the yellow one w/ grn tracer this will fake your jeep into thinking it in 4 lo so you can use your lockers in 4 hi, 2hi whatever factory switch will still operate the same i would suggest putting a resistor inline now your dash will say your in 4lo when you flip the switch on. so saying this much i have not done this mod on a stock jk so dont no if you will have any dtc showing up but you shouldnt in theory

Any update on this?

Logically, I assume the locker needs power and a signal to turn on. How to do that, I'm asking you.

Thanks.
Only way is to hard wire and place a switch on your dash that operates the front locker only.
