Tazer JL - more than just a tire size programmer!

[hoag4147]

you can just update if using Windows.
If you’re using a Mac I suggest unmarrying as the Mac isn’t super reliable when it comes to updates.

@[email protected] Joe - Is this still true for a Mac? Can you just disconnect, update firmware, reconnect and done?

On a Mac I’d unmarry first then upgrade. Macs have some usb driver issues that make for occasional data corruption that you definitely don’t want. Unmarrying first removes any risk.
Looks like we will have a Mac update out soon to make up for the driver issue.

Thanks Joe. Was hoping
Last time I unmarried had to reprogram all my changes once reinstalled and was hoping not to have to go through that again. But no biggie. Thanks again

Can anyone explain to me how to re-map a button to turn off the sway bar at any speed or any mode. I unlocked the sway bar in two wheel drive and it works no problem without any kind of programming or what not. But it says that I can re-map the cruise control positive negative or resume button to be able to unlock the sway bar and keep it unlocked at any speed. I push the right arrow and then one of those three buttons and I can’t figure out how to Remap the button.

right arrow and the button you want to map repeatedly until you see “swaykill”
That’s it.
just need to stop before pressing it or it’ll say “swaypend” until you come to a stop when it’ll switch over to “swaykill” and do the disconnect.

Joe, you are a genius!!! I tried it on the way to a store right now and it didn’t seem to work right. It kept locking once I got up to 25 and 30 miles an hour. Went into the stored and did my shopping came out and at the first stop sign I only pushed the cruise plus button. The sway bar unlocked and I took it up to 50 miles an hour and it still was unlocked! Super stoked on this! Thank you thank you thank you!

I did accidentally hit the cruise minus button on the way home and guess what, I had previously remapped it to be light show. Kind of freaked my wife out! LOL

So you basically have to give up one of your three default preset keys (line lock, winch mode, rock crawl) to remap one of those for swaykill, correct? Of is there some other programmable key I'm unaware of? I'll likely just remap cruise pos (line lock) as I rarely, if ever, use that function anyway.

I just installed the Mini on Sunday and I keep getting an Auto On/Off error message on my Jeep after a few minutes of driving. I went through the Tazer menus and didn't see any mention of Auto On/Off. Am I missing something?

2021 Rubicon if that matters.

What's the error?

The Tazer simply remembers the state of the Auto Stop/Start button. There's no setting to adjust. Push the button on the dash to turn it off and Auto Stop/Start stays off and vice versa.

Please contact us via the text number on the website, I’d like to help figure this out. That shouldn’t happen, though I can’t even make sense of that message.

Here are the pictures, first is right at start, the error lights come on after 3-4 miles.

It is possible that this is a Tazer issue, but that error is common in the JL.

I suggest having both of your batteries tested, as that error is a good indicator that one or both batteries are bad. The batteries in the JL don't last long and, given that you have a 2018, you may very well be due for new batteries.

Agree. Easy to remove Tazer to eliminate as suspect. I’ve had my Tazer in use for three years and it works perfectly. I can’t say the same for my batteries… AUX was replaced under warranty at which point I decided to bypass it, then the main failed and I replaced with a Northstar.

My money is on this having nothing to do with Tazer.

@beast40 text Joe like he asked. He’s not going to debug this in a forum thread.

Nope nope...
It’s a manual transmission. You probably put tires 33” or bigger. When you do that, you need to do the 6th gear relearn procedure or you’ll get an ESS error when you get it I 6th...
I’ll find a link to it, I see now it’s missing from my website!
