Default Poweragon locker overide

The lockers only work in 4lo on the ram powerwagon. The rubicon is the same way and is easily overideable by grounding the front and rear locker wires on the axle lock switch. Is there a known modification of such for the powerwagon?

Does anyone have the schematics for the 06 poweragon locker/4wd panel? What prevents the lockers from engaging in 4hi?

It looks like there is a controller that gets it's information serially over CAN bus (such asTransfer case settingand speed...) and limits the sway bar control and locker control accordingly.

Besides reprogramming (I've never heard of this option being available?), I think the only way to force the lockers to engage is by tapping into the wiring of the locker solenoids...as mikehales said.

jhud,
I just realized your post was a few months old. Did you manage to overide your lockers?
