Looked over similar threads but hard to tell if my situation matches. Looking for ideas on what to do next...
1) Tried remote start - didn't work but lights flashed
2) Got in jeep, pressed button - dash says "key fob not in vehicle"
3) Got 2nd key fob, pressed button - dash says "key fob not in vehicle"
4) Press fob into button per dash instruction - no change in OFF to ACC or RUN and still won't start
5) Tried a few more combos of things with no luck - suddenly dash looses is mind (see video below)

6) Completely non-responsive, won't shut off, wipers going, dash flashing. wtf?
Had to get to work, can't leave it like this, pulled positive lead on battery, and at least the dash & wipers stopped moving. Hoping I get home, reconnect battery and all is good - or my ESS battery will be drained and dead. Fortunately my 17yro WRX still starts...
Additional details...
Tazer JL installed
Just got it back from dealer oil change and recall for steering stabilizer. Drove it home and parked it for 3 days.
Had re-married the Tazer and reset tire size & tpms settings.
Don't really want to blame dealer for an oil change or tazer for being a tazer but that's the recent changes.
Any ideas on where to troubleshoot before calling dealer or potentially even getting it towed there?
Thanks!
