How Does the Electronic Locking Differential Work - Excluding: Raptor

You can activate the differential electronically and shift it on the fly within the operating speed range. The electronic differential disengages when the vehicle speed exceeds a set value, and reengages when the vehicle speed goes below a set value. See Switching the Electronic Locking Differential On and Off - 4x4, Excluding: Raptor. It also engages based on certain selected drive modes.
See Selecting a Drive Mode - King Ranch/Lariat/Limited/Platinum/XL/XLT. The electronic locking differential is for use in mud, rocks, sand, or any off-road condition where you need maximum traction.

Note: The electronic locking differential can activate or deactivate automatically based on speed, four-wheel drive mode, and drive mode selection. See Switching the Electronic Locking Differential On and Off - 4x4, Excluding: Raptor.

Note: The electronic locking differential is for off-road use only and is not for use on dry pavement. Using the electronic locking differential on dry pavement results in increased tire wear, noise and vibration.

Note: Do not perform this operation when cruise control or trail control are selected and active. The system may not engage as expected.
