Mojave front locker using Rubicon switch.

[outdoor.adventures]

I added an Eaton E-locker and a factory rubicon switch. I have the Z-auto sensor bypass adapter and a Tazer. I'm trying to figure out if I have a wiring issue or a mechanical one. My switch works as it should locks rear only or both Front/rear. The Off Road pages display shows them as locked or unlocked, but my front locker is not engaging. Rear locker functions normal, but also has a Z-auto sensor bypass adapter. No errors are displayed.
Any suggestions on what to check?

I'd check the connections/current/signal between the z-auto adapter and the locker.

Since the vehicle is showing the front as locked, this indicates the z-auto adapter is receiving the right signal from the vehicle, as well as sending a signal back to the vehicle. The only thing remaining is that the locker isn't actually locking, so something between (and including) the z-auto adapter and the e-locker isn't working right.

This is exactly what I would have said. Are you certain that the front locker isn't engaging? Sometimes it takes a few wheel rotations before the differential locker engages.

@Temperance, question about your website description of your ALCM:

When the pressure drops below 80 psi it will show in the console as unlocked. When the pressure increases to 120 psi or above it will show as locked.

I have a friend who instead of the ARB Twin (CKMTA12) has the ARB Single (CKMA12) compressor, which has a maximum of 100psi instead of 150psi.

For this setup, would you recommend a pressure switch that is ON at 90psi/OFF at 120psi, like this? Or what range do you recommend?

What range threshold ON/OFF is the switch that you sold?

You'll need to find a 50-70 psi or something close to that. They aren't as common, but are still available.

Are you going to open source it?

That's the plan, but I've been busy lately. I'll move it to the top of my priorities.

The only issue I had is one of my locker pins was not pushed in far enough to lock on the plug. Front Locker works great now! Thank you Temperance.

Yay! Glad it's working now!

I would love to get that harness...or build one.
