Electronic Locking Differential Indicators
 Rear locking differential Indicator. |
 Front locking differential Indicator. |
If the front or rear indicator in the cluster is amber, both wheels of the indicated axle are locked together providing additional traction.
If the electronic locking differential is selected and the indicator in the cluster is gray or turns from amber to gray while driving, one of the following has occurred:
- Your vehicle speed is too high.
- The accelerator pedal is too high during an engagement attempt.
- Your vehicle is experiencing an anti-lock brake activation.
- The left and right wheel speed difference is too high during an engagement attempt.
If the electronic locking differential is selected and the indicator in the cluster does not illuminate, one of the following has occurred:
- The electronic locking differential is not allowed in the current G.O.A.T mode and is accompanied by SELECTED LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL NOT AVAILABLE IN CURRENT Drive Mode in the instrument cluster display.
- The electronic locking differential is not allowed in the current 4x4 mode and is accompanied by SELECTED LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL NOT AVAILABLE IN CURRENT 4x4 MODE in the instrument cluster display.
- The system has malfunctioned and is accompanied by CHECK LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL in the instrument cluster display. See your authorized dealer for assistance.
ELECTRONIC LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL – INFORMATION MESSAGES
| Message | Details | |
|---|---|---|
|
Selected Locking Differential Not Available in Current Drive Mode |
The selected electronic locking differential is not available in current G.O.A.T mode. See G.O.A.T. Mode Control. | |
|
Selected Locking Differential Not Available in Current 4x4 Mode |
The selected electronic locking differential is not available in your current four-wheel drive mode. See Four-Wheel Drive. | |
|
To Engage Locking Differential Release Accelerator Pedal |
The selected electronic locking differential requires that you release the accelerator pedal in order to engage. | |
|
Check Locking Differential |
An electronic locking differential system fault is present. See your authorized dealer as soon as possible. | |
The following conditions affect the electronic locking differential:
- Based on G.O.A.T mode selection, the rear electronic locking differential does not engage if your vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph).
- The front electronic locking differential does not engage if your vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) in four-wheel drive low (4L).
- Based on G.O.A.T mode selection, the electronic locking differential automatically disengages at speeds above 41 km/h (25 mph) and automatically re-engages at speeds below 32 km/h (20 mph).
- The electronic locking differential may not engage if you press your accelerator pedal during an engagement attempt. A message may display in the instrument display guiding you to release the accelerator pedal.
- In four-wheel drive low (4L), the front electronic locking differential automatically disengages at speeds above 41 km/h (25 mph) and automatically re-engages at speeds below 32 km/h (20 mph).
- The AdvanceTrac system has the ability to take over control of the electronic locking differential and disable it during driving maneuvers when necessary.
Operating Electronic Locking Differential With a Spare or Mismatched Tires
On vehicles with an electronic locking differential, the size of the spare tire can affect performance of the system. If there is a significant difference between the two rear tires or two front tires, you may have limited electronic locking differential functionality. If the electronic locking differential has difficulty disengaging, release the accelerator pedal and turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction when rolling. We recommend engaging and disengaging the electronic locking differential at a stop when you mount a spare or mismatched tire on either axle.
