Diff lock
Hi guys, after yesterdays lekker Kumho fun day my electric rear diff lock doesnt disengage, I DID switch it off and the "ABS" "DIFF LOCK" has gone out but the locker hasnt disengaged. Iv reversed re-engaged then disengaged but no luck. Have disconected electric plug on wireing just in front off diff blowen it dry and sprayed it with spookpipie, still not playing ball. Help does Anyone have any sugestions that can help? I drove from Kdorp to Centurion with it locked and am poeping myself.

Re: Diff lock
Hi Alex, thanks, took solinoid off and cleaned it, the 1 pipe was blocked. A least I now know this thing is not an electric diff lock its vacume operated, by the year 2020 I might be able to change a wheel on it if I read the posts properly

Re: Diff lock
Hi Martyn
Glad you got sorted.
I am a much slower learner. I have to learn of every aspect of my car one item at a time.
So the diff lock is ticked off. I don't think the vacuum system is the most robust out there.

Re: Diff lock
I had a similar problem. Gave it a small knock with a small hammer to solve the problem.
