Anyone experience software bugs after Paddle shifter install?

Thanks for the kind words! I hope to get some traction in Q1 on the paddle shifter gear # activation.

Carl: are your paddle shifter parts oem? Thanks!

Yes, they are, except for the little screw covers, we make those in-house b/c I initially couldn't find the part numbers, and then when I did, the Mopar inventory levels were .

I just bought a set; I'm assuming that there isn't a Forum discount? Thanks Carl. This is so exciting for me to be able to add these!

Thanks! We don't have a forum discount. We will probably not replenish inventory once we sell this batch. Threedom is the only place, that I am aware of, that stocks these kits. Everywhere else their drop shipped.

I’m tackling the paddle shifters today. I have a question: when I take the positive and negative leads off of the main battery, in order to ensure the airbag doesn’t deploy on me, are we certain that there is still no 12 V power from the secondary battery that could trigger something.? I’m assuming that an airbag deployment would be catastrophic for me.

To answer my question above: it is absolutely critical to ensure that the leads for the auxiliary battery are undone before attempting to install paddle shifters. There is absolutely still 12 V power running to the systems and less you unhook the secondary battery. I need to find a good link for doing that, but it was evident when I open the doors of the jeep and the dashboard still lit up even when the main battery was disconnected.

Here is my second conundrum. My steering wheel on my diesel seems to have a weight on it that no one has mentioned in any of the paddle shifter videos. It clearly has a 3.0 L stamped on it, so I’m assuming it’s a diesel only parts. as I did buy a 392 wheel, do you think I also need to have this weight in there as well? The 392 wheel definitely seems heavier than my OEM Rubicon wheel. Does anyone know about this weight? It has a QR code on it that I’m going to scan. My thought is to go ahead and install it and see what it feels like and if it seems too heavy on the wheel, I will take it apart and uninstall it. I’d love to get some feedback from someone who knows about this. @392OVRLND or @Ratbert, any ideas?

The plot thickens.

I'm thinking that it's time for your to buy a scale.
