Are you saying yours doesn't lock?
That means your flashing light is working correctly.

Mine acted like that for a while after several water crossings. It fixed it's self over a couple weeks.

Mybe if I just keep using them more it will fix itself like you said .. I kinda feel like the previous owner just drove it on pavement its whole life as it's in amazing shape, little to no rust, and most everything stock .. So after using the lockers for the next couple of weeks, if it doesn't self correct, i'll start poking around under the jeep

The flashing light means that it got the command to engage, but has not sensed that the locker is engaged yet.
Do a search online and there are numerous articles outlining the steps for troubleshooting this problem.

to add to this, the service manual has a section specifically on troubleshooting locker electrical issues.

UPDATE: I have been driving my Jeep around as much as possible, and have been engaging the lockers when possible ... And I am happy to report the front locker light No Longer blinks! The lockers come on any time now without any issues and no blinking . Maybe the previous owner just never used them and they sat for a while.

I hope that is true! Chasing a locker wiring issue is a BIG PITA

Sorry for the late response. No the front end doesn't lock up. Correct. Haven't dug into it yet, hopefully sometime over the winter.
