Discovered Saturday that my front locker on my 2018 JKUR is not working. The light on the dash just blinks. Anyone dealt with this? Thanks in advance!

The dog clutch isn't disengaging. Common problem on an older Jeep but being that you have a 2018, it shouldn't be happening especially if it's still stock. You can force it over with a pick tool and some times thought the fill hole but more likely than not, you'll need to pull the diff cover to do it. However, it'll most likely get stuck again. Still under warranty?

Unfortunately no longer under warranty. But, thankfully, I and a few other Jeeper friends are fully capable of checking it out. Thanks so much for the suggestion.
 
my 2018 JLUR (I'm pretty sure they share the same drivetrain), It took a 2nd pull of putting into 4lo to get it fully engaged.

It'll roll and act as if it's in 4lo but the lockers won't engage until that second engagement, it was also popping out of 4lo on steep climbs

After a few times of having to do this, it seems to have worn in and haven't had the issue for awhile.

If you're still under warranty, take to the dealer
