Rear Axle; Electronic Locking Differential - Ford Ranger Raptor 2018 Supplement Manual

ELECTRONIC LOCKING
DIFFERENTIAL
Note: Do not operate the system on sealed
roads. Doing so may lead to excessive tire
noise and wear. Use the system only in
consistently slippery or loose surface.
The system locks the left and right portions
of the rear axle together to form a solid
driving axle, resulting in increased rear
wheel traction in certain conditions.
Press the electronic differential lock button
to activate the system.

The electronic differential lock will lock
and unlock when the internal gears are
aligned and no torque load is placed on
the differential. To aid alignment, drive the
vehicle in a straight line with the
accelerator pedal released. Alternatively,
drive slowly forward and backward while
moving the steering wheel from side to side
to allow the electronic differential lock to
lock.
The system will:
• Automatically disengage when a speed
of 40 km/h is exceeded.
• Automatically re-engage when the
speed drops below 30 km/h.
• Automatically disengage when the
ignition is turned off.
Note: The system activates when the
vehicle speed is less than 30 km/h and
accelerator pedal released.

Note: The system can be used in any drive
mode (2H, 4H or 4L).
If the system is selected when driving
above 40 km/h, the request is stored and
will be engaged when the vehicle speed
reduces to 30 km/h. The electronic
differential lock indicator lamp will flash
until either the vehicle speed reduces and
the differential lock is engaged or the driver
deselects the electronic differential lock
button.
Note: When the system is engaged, the
Electronic Stability Program (ESP) functions
such as Stability Control, Traction Control,
Hill Descent Control, Emergency stop signal,
Hill Start Assist and Trailer Sway Control
will be deactivated, the ESP Off indicator
illuminates, and the HDC on indicator turns
off.
Note: When the anti-lock braking system
is operating, the system will be disengaged.
