Front lockers wont engage

Maybe this should go to a tech page ,but I need some help from someone who knows Rubicons. After replacing the locker switch and the front air pump my front lockers still wont engage. All I get is A flashing light on the dash.The dealership did this work under the powertrain warrenty, then noticed the low gear bypass wired in for the locker.They stopped looking for the problem stating I voided my warrenty with the bypass.So with the first two possibilities eleminated I need to figure out whats next. I have no skills with a wrench, so I have to pay for the work. Dont want to get ripped . 2003 Rubicon needs help

Welcome to the forum.

You could un-do your bypass and take it to another dealer. Usually its the air line come off inside the diff, causing the locker to not engage. I would think the dealer would have checked that though.

I'm having the exact same problem with my front locker not activating, minus the bypass, which I was planning on installing sometime over the next few weeks, lol. I guess I'll take it to the dealer sometime. Let me know how it goes with a PM if you would.
