Zusammenfassung:	A vehicle jack locator system for a vehicle that incorporates a light source such as an LED to direct the operator to the recommended position for the load engaging saddle of a jack is disclosed. The vehicle jack locator system allows the operator to see, even in dark or poorly illuminated environments, the recommended place to position the jack saddle. The system incorporates a vehicle rocker panel having an outer surface and an underside positioned below the outer surface, a rocker panel jack attachment point on the underside of the panel for receiving the jack saddle, a jack placement indicator light positioned on the outer surface of the rocker panel at a point above the jack attachment point and near a tire, and a power system for selectively energizing the light. The power system is a tire pressure sensor system that includes tire pressure sensors and an electronic control module.
