Centre diff lockout on 100series

Is this it?

Sorry spellcheck Should be Cant find the post

It's on the Lcool site in the 100 series section - called the Pin 7 Mod, far as I recall - did mine - works a treat.

Yep Graham, i have removed the right most connector on the rear of the transfer case, thus removing the auto intro of the CDL in low range. i is now fully manual controlled in low and high- very handy. just tape up the plug and tie it up.

It’s on the Lcool site in the 100s Tech section. The method there is the plug at 1 o’clock. There was a post somewhere, can’t remember where, that was called the No 7 pin mod. (in behind the LH kick panel). I did mine this way.

The problem with the gearbox plug method apparently, is that the plug and socket on the gearbox are O ring sealed together against water ingress, as the plug fixed to the gearbox is not sealed on its own, water gets into the gearbox if you leave them separated.

Look in behind the front LH kick panel and up high is a small black box with an oblong plug in the bottom. Pull the plug out, and I think is was pin 7 ??? Check the colour code as this is the wire that goes down to the gearbox plug (black and red I think), work backwards from the gearbox plug to be sure. Pull this pin out of the oblong plug and tape it up and cable tie it to the harness as it’s live.

No more auto low range.

Thanks guys

It does seem though that the 100 series plug is in the back of the glovebox which will mean a bit of extra work as I already have a Safari chip in there already so place is a bit packed.
Will try to get around to it when we spend a bit more time in one place.
At present at Nowra heading to Batemans Bay then Canberra and the Snowy then a week in Melbourne over Easter.

Hi Graham,

I too have simply unplugged and taped the plug from the back of the transfer case. Only takes a couple of minutes. Personally, I can't see too much water entering through the electrical pins on the switch fitting. I certainly have not had any water in my transfer case. If you are worried about it, then put a big dob of silicon over it to seal it up.

The only reason it is covered up is to keep the mud out of it...the plig is right above the rear tailshaft, drop by my place and i will do it for you.
