Howdy

Slight problem with the locker operation, normallly I have to engage the rear locker before I can the front, but now I can by-pass the rear the light flashes but does not engage and the front does.

Would this be a switch issue or something else

Cheers SR

ps have a 1991 hjz75 ute

Factory lockers I'm guessing?
The lights will flash until they have engaged. If the rear flashes and the front is on solid when both are turned on it's usually the gears on the rear locker are not lined up and can't engage, you need to drive around a corner or slip one of the rear wheels to get it to pop in.
If it still doesn't there is probably a problem.

Yep, factory ones.

Already tried that, and the front engages before the rear, before, they worked properly.

Yeah, sometimes my front engages before the rear. I just drive it a bit to get the rear in.
If it doesn't engage at all it would probably be an issue with the actuator on the diff.
Have a look here..
