Hi Jason,

if your electronic diff lock is the one made by AMV they are prone to failure.

the mechanism is plastic and of course fails in the most inconvenient place.

Many on here who have used the AMV (like me), reccomend changing to a cable actuated CDL, simple and won't let you down.

cheers and enjoy your new off road capabilities!!
