I would have agreed that it might have been a factory issue if not for the fact that it never happened prior to me installing the Taser JL and it has not happened again in the 10 days after I have removed it. It only occurred while the Tazer JL was installed and plugged in and it would reboot at least once every day and many time two or three times in a day if I was driving a lot.
My opinion is that is an isolated case with my particular Tazer JL. I think this because if it was a systemic issue we would certainly be hearing a lot more on forums like this.
Well that sucks. I am sure they will stand by you and get it squared away. Let us know what happens

Hello front rock crawling camera!!! Needed it yesterday!

When you said it will be out in a week or so, where is that from and will it be the same resolution as the backup cam?

Update:
They are sending me a replacement Tazer JL and I will return this one. I am completely confident this will resolve the issue, but will give a final update once the new one is installed and has run for a few days.
Great customer service here BTW.

Has anyone tried to enable DRL on a sport with the tazer?

I received my taser today and was successful in updating everything that I wanted. Had to play with the tire size several times to get the speedo to match gps, but everything else seems to be perfect. Updated to 11.0.1 once I received and everything went as instructed.

That is what the timeline is and as long as the front camera has the same resolution, yes.

I did...but I forgot to look and see if at actually worked. I set DRL to US mode with the low beams as the location. Hopefully I remember to get out and see if they are on or not tomorrow.

I checked this morning. It works.

If I added extra lights for DRL, does anyone know how I would wire it in so it would turn on if I used the 'Dedicated DRL' setting for location? I think there is a fuse in the fuse box for DRL, would I just need to wire into that circuit?

If you turned on DRL: Dedicated then the wire that runs the fender turn signal drl wires would turn on.

I'm not sure I have that wire on the Sport S.
All jeeps are wired with it from what i can find from the wiring diagrams. You could even swap the fender lights out with the LED package ones if you wanted

This weekend I'll be trying to install my Tazer again. If I'm unable to unplug those wires, I'll be looking at Superchips new programmer. I've sent them a message asking if and how they deal with those plugs. If all the same, I'll keep trying the Taser. If they found another way around it, I'll be at a crossroads and will decide what to do.

Keep us posted on that dash rebooting. Hopefully it is an isolated situation, but that's one thing I'm a little nervous about.
After about an hour and a half of trying, and using surgical tools from Harbor Freight (long handled picks and long, curved surgical clamp), I finally got it!! :muscle::turkey:
It works perfectly!

So now I've almost got the tires right. I'm still about 1.5 or 2mph off at 55mph. I'll nail that down tomorrow. The ESS is off! Yahoo! I also adjusted the TPMS and can have a passenger use the nav. I also stopped the fog light drop when brights are on.

I've got just a couple questions now. How about the rear camera button enabling it to stay on? Are those features just not in there yet? I do think I want to get a front mounted camera (cargo cam) That's on the wish list. Will Zauto be selling a camera that would be wide angle and good for spotting up front when off-road?

A feature I'd love to have is to be able to scroll through a playlist without it stopping it after a few pages. That's probably controlled by Android Auto, so I'm not really expecting it.

I'd also like to have the CHMTL flash three or four times when initally braking to wake up anyone behind me. That should be easy to program.

When is the next firmware update and what new goodies can we expect?

Glad you got it installed Dan!

For other's reading this thread / following this thread, do know that Dan is the only one that I know of, that has played hell with getting that one connector disconnected. No one else has used any tools to get the connector disconnected. They just used their hands/fingers.

YES, that connector is a pain to get to, especially if you have large hands, but getting it disconnected has not been an issue for other's.

Congrats!! I ordered mine last week. I think you have the same setup as me with the 315 KO2’s. Do you mind sharing your tire settings so I can learn from your wisdom??
