NEW Tazer DT Updates and Guide

I don't think I married it this past time, but it still gave me the option to unmarry it when I was doing the reset. I'd rather it not be married, so I can simply unplug it for dealer visits as needed.

As part of the Tazer instructions, it says to perform a few sleep cycles every time you change a setting. I've never done that before but I've never had any issues with not doing it. Am I missing something or are the sleep cycles really not necessary?
If it asked you to unmarry then it was married. The sleep cycles are only necessary if you make changes in vehicle settings ( gears, tire size etc) and when unmarrying the Tazer. If you are only using live settings then you can disconnect as is. When you plug it back in your settings return automatically.

OK that makes more sense now. Wasn't sure which settings required the sleep cycles.
 
Did you have it married, and were you using the PIN feature? If so, it's highly likely that the Tazer caused it. But if you were running it unmarried, then it wasn't the Tazer.
I had it married, but not using the pin feature. Is that the secret? Dont marry?
 
I've been having an issue with my Tazer lately. It's just randomly landing on a drive mode setting when I start the truck. Sometimes it starts in Baja, sometimes Sport, sometimes Auto. It's getting really annoying going through my subdivision in the morning and realizing it's in some goofy mode because it's holding shifts. Any fix for this? It's not married to the truck. I'm basically using it for DRL amber lights and that's it.

Thanks

The Drive Mode Memory is not a setting that can be changed (to my knowledge). It's automatic, and can't be disabled.
You might try pulling out the Tazer and reflashing it with the latest firmware.

I don't mind the setting. It's not really needed because I'm mostly usually in Auto. If I'm out and about in Sport mode, park somewhere (gas station or something), and get back in the truck and the setting comes back to Sport, that's great! But, I've never been in "Mud/Sand" mode for example... why does it just decide to randomly start in that mode?

I wasn't aware there has been a firmware update in the last several years. I'll have to go to the website and look.

There's got to be a member of this forum close by in Michigan with AlfaOBD/JScan that could configure amber signature lights for you.

I’ve been looking for a member with alphaobd near me in the Bay Area ca so they could teach my dumb arse how to use it.

Same. lol I have an OBDlink MX+ and the AlphaOBD software. I just haven’t messed with it on this truck. It certainly came in handy when I replaced all the air suspension on one of my Jeep WK2’s tho!

I liked the idea of just pulling the Tazer for service and not changing things internally. But if the Tazer is gonna be problematic, I suppose I can go the AlphOBD route.
 
Hey Guys is there any way to make my DRL 's Amber without the Tazer deal ?
It was just a plug and play wiring kit on my Yukon AT4
Thanks

Yep, get AlfaOBD or JScan and a SGW bypass plug/cable. You can buy everything for under $100. There are a bunch of threads on here to get you setup. Takes about 5 minutes to program.
