Axle lock switch issue

[Foo]

When I push axle lock one time both axle lock lights illuminate on cluster pnl. Push a second time and the front axle lock light goes steady. As it should and it is locked. Rear also locks. When I lift toggle both lockers disappear, not just front. Anyone had this issue? Oh yeah it does the same with a second switch. Thanks, Foo

If you have the original unmolested switch for the rubicon TJ, depressing (push down) on the switch should begin a "flash" rear locker as the pump builds pressure. It will eventually stay constant when the rear locker is engaged. When you depress the switch a 2nd time, it should do the same to the front. Lifting up on the switch will disengage the lockers and both lights should diminish.

If you have a Rubicon that has the locker bypass hack, more information will be needed. You mention a "second switch".. Not sure what you're referring to.

I read it as they swapped in another locker switch and it also worked perfectly.

Ya, it was an ambiguous description. Sorry. When pushed one time beth axle light come on. Only rear locks, front flashes. Press second time front locks. I don't know where I mentioned a second switch. I understood when both are locked one " up" on switch unlocks front locker and a second "up" on switch unlocks rear locker. Thanks for reply.

Not sure what's wrong but one depress will lock the rear, a second depress will lock the front. A third depress will unlock the front. At any point in time when either front axle or rear axle is locked, lifting up on the switch will disengage both axle lockers. If both axle lock (F&R) cluster indicators either illuminate solid or flash with one depress of the axle lock switch, perhaps it's a malfunctioning switch or a PCM. Only one (and the first) depress should lock the rear axle, if everything (air locker pump, locker bladder, locker itself and/or the locker sensor) is functioning properly.

I see where u got second switch. I replaced switch with a different one, same issue, both lights illuminate with one push of button. I bought brand new switch and that one was DOA, sent back.

With OEM switch discontinued, my suggestion is to wire the "Rubicon Locker Bypass" mod and bypass the switch entirely.

Will do as last resort.

Stock Rubicon, one click down locks rear, two clicks down locks both, 3 clicks down unlocks front or you can flip up and unlock both at same time
