2021 JT Rubi Potential FAD Issues with transfer case leaking

[Achenxx8]

Gladiator down. This is a 2021 Rubicon, ordered in Sept and took delivery on Nov of 2020. Current mileage is 4200. I noticed this pulsing noice coming from the front yesterday, looked up on the forum and it seems to be the FAD(front axle disconnect). The noise only happens in 2H. I also found oil leaking under the truck, it seems to be light red/pink color, might be the transfer case oil? I’m bringing in the Jeep tomorrow and see what the dealer says.

What does the tazer do?
I have an SAS s10 with gladiator axles, I cannot get the fad to work.
1. Does the FAD have to talk to a computer to function?
2. Has anyone converted their front axle to manual hubs?
3. If you have converted it to manual hubs, what manufacturer made the conversion kit?
