Overhead Control Panel Offroad Operation Reference Plate - 2024+ Grenadier / Quartermaster

The Progression — Start Simple, Go Deeper

The plate follows the natural off-road escalation sequence — exactly how the controls are meant to be used. Upper left is where you start every trail. Lower right is for the serious stuff.

Off-Road Mode tunes the drivetrain and throttle for loose terrain — your baseline for anything beyond pavement. From there, you work the Transfer Case to drop into Low Range as the trail demands. Then come the lockers: Rear first, then Front when the rear alone isn't enough.

The final two panels are the special modes — Wading for water crossings and Downhill Assist for controlled descents — each with their own specific prerequisites clearly listed.

Crisp, Legible, Right Where You Look

The White on Black finish delivers maximum contrast against the Grenadier's dark headliner — the icons and text read instantly, day or night, without hunting for the right switch.

Laser-etched markings sit flush and permanent. No printed labels to peel, no ink to fade. It looks like it came from the factory, and it holds up to years of grabbing switches with dusty, wet, gloved hands.

Lockers: What You Need Before You Engage

Engaging the diff locks in the wrong order — or at the wrong speed — can leave you stuck or damage driveline components. The plate spells out the prerequisites for both the Rear and Front lockers so you engage them correctly, every time.

Wading Mode & Downhill Assist

These two bottom-right panels cover the Grenadier's most capability-specific systems — the ones that have the most requirements and the most consequences if you get the sequence wrong.

Wading Mode requires Off-Road Mode, Low Range, and Center Diff Locked before you even press the button — and has a specific shutdown procedure after you exit the water. Downhill Assist requires lockers OFF and controlled forward speed. The plate tells you exactly what to check, so you're not improvising.
