I wonder if It could be done in a round about way. From what I have heard, ESS will not work if the Hood is open. Maybe the Hood switch could be disconnected, then use JSCAN to set the Hood Ajar Sensor to "Not Present" or "OFF" (Under Miscellaneous Settings), so the Hood Open warning light would not appear on the dash.Emailed Jscan earlier this week. They’re apparently working on the ESS bypass. Hopefully they get it figured out soon.
Yes. There’s a video out there of a guy doing that. However I have a 07 Duramax that looks like a Peanuts Christmas Tree. That’s what I would want to avoid. I’d rather deal with the A button for now than have a light on on the dash. Hopefully they figure it out sooner than later.I wonder if It could be done in a round about way.

@MalteeseJLU Very easy to disable the seat belt chime. You don't even need a programmer to do the disable. Watch this guy's video:I'm anxiously waiting for the MX+ should be here Monday then I'll purchase a liscence from Jscan, gonna hopefully start with tire size, and definitely get rid of the seatbelts chime.
@Htfan sent me this pic a while back. They’re tucked up in there. But once you get the hang of it you can sit on the door sill and put your hand in there and unplug/replicate everything. The tab disconnect is on facing towards the engine bay.So the security bypass adapter cable plugs in where exactly on the JL ? and then where does the other end plug into ? I’m totally lost
If you use the bypass cable you don’t plug into the OBD two port then is that correct.
No way are you just gonna sit on the door sill and disconnect and or reconnect cables there. You will need to pull the plastic just under the steering wheel and with the help of a good light get up under there literally to see and work with the connectors.@Htfan sent me this pic a while back.

Yes way. I did it after the second time of learning where the plugs were and how to unplug them. Is it easy? No. Can everyone do it that way? No. Is it more comfortable than becoming a contortionist?

I’ve already dealt with these connectors many times. Maybe a bit of exaggeration of sitting on the door sill but I definitely did not take the bottom panel off and lay in awkward angles and positioning after the second time of getting to know the plug.
Ha. Calling me a liar on a public forum. Maybe you need a little video posted like above to show there’s more than one way to do it. As a first timer though, the video posted is the way to go.@72Blazer
No disrespect, but I do not believe you. Lets leave it at that..

My concern is you guys post something here that a zillion Novices will read and take to heart.@Rhinebeck01
I can plug and unplug them easily while kneeling down next to my JL. You going to call me a liar too?
