Just wanted to add my experience. Just did e-locker override mod on my 2010 fx4 and I can't wait to use it! I know it works, light came on and I could hear the "click" from the rear. Special thanks to Ben at Tasca Ford. I had the wrong tccm delivered (communications error my part and theirs). Anyway, he sent me the right part as soon as I told him and he even gave me a shipping label to get the part back. Bottom line, I'm happy with my new mod! Btw, wrong tccm will give you a wrench on the dash and say check 4x4

Do a search for "Chilton's". One of the results is a post from Ymeski that has a link to Chilton's Online. You might find that schematic there - its got the entire repair manual for most makes, models, and years.

You will need a library card to get though, but it's free.

I'd post the link myself, but I'm on my mobile and don't know how.

Try going to your local library or school. Seriously, it's worth it.

Finally did this mod. I just added a switch with a diode. It works very well. I have the locker locked anytime I swich the switch on. The factory switch still works the same as always. No lights or messages on either. The only time the "check 4x4 system" message comes on is when I have the factory switch on and my switch on at the same time. Other than that works perfect. Just cut the tan/purlpe wire coming out of the tccm and added my diode and power wire. Here is a pic of my switch

Off-Road Mode
The SVT Raptor comes equipped with a special off-road function. An off-road button is located on the floor console. A light on the button illuminates when this feature is activated.
NOTE: Off-road mode is specifically calibrated for off-road driving conditions and should never be used on pavement.

The off-road function consists of the following components:
  • Off-road mode switch
  • TCCM
Off-road mode affects 4 vehicle functions:
  • It allows unique transmission shifting that optimizes off-road performance.
  • Off-road mode provides optimized throttle response tailored for off-road performance driving.
  • When off-road mode is engaged, the standard vehicle speed thresholds for the ELD are lifted.
  • When off-road mode is engaged, the AdvanceTrac settings are altered for optimized off-road performance.
my '12 2wd eco has the eld switch in the dash like the 4wd, do you think the offroad mode switch or something along those lines would work with a 2wd, because i really dont like the low mph locking feature. i also work for a ford dealer but i sell parts and when i brought this up to a few of my techs theyve never heard of such mod
