Platinum Member Volant165 Posted August 5, 2022 Platinum Member Share Posted August 5, 2022 Anyone out there using Tazer? I have used it to set my tyre sizes to my new larger tyres. The tyre size chosen is correct. The size is saved. I reboot the system. I go for a test drive and the speedo is spot on. A day or two later, the speedo is back to being off. The actual speed goes back to not matching?!? I have tried four times for over a month and no joy. Anyone else compared their speedo after adjusting on tazer woth sat nave type gos? I use Waze. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member digger Posted August 5, 2022 Platinum Member Share Posted August 5, 2022 Er. sorry mate I can't help with this one. Mine's complicated too, I had to change a little cog to a yellow one . It took a few minutes, mind you, but fine as long as one is not colour blind and has a tiny bit of dexterity! LOL. Good to hear from you Jim, good luck with your problem. Look forward to seeing you at camp! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member V Posted August 5, 2022 Platinum Member Share Posted August 5, 2022 As with lots of things that rely on software, there may be a firmware update for the Tazer that already fixes the issue. The February update mentions major stability fixes and BCM read/write reliability enhancements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deniz Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I'm using tazer and there were no issues. Last week removed it for dealer visit for servising and can't unplug the sockets to re-install now. While tazer installed I've checked the speed using various apps there was no issues. After I removed tazer I checked with apps again no issues as well except the radar stuff on the road. For 20 mph speed limit I needed to drive 19 mph. Therefore, I can't sure the settings for tire size still there or not in Jeep's computer. If i managed to remove those sockets and re-plug tazer I'll check again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedo reads higher than actual speed resulting in more miles on odometer than driven. At least it then lies about my fuel economy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Overlander21 Posted August 5, 2022 Platinum Member Share Posted August 5, 2022 I've got a Tazer Mini and a front parking camera in my Wishlist on Quadratrec (struggling to find any UK suppliers that actually carry stock of any Wrangler goodies without it being a "special order" ). I swapped from factory 18" wheels and road-going tyres (Overland) to 17" wheels with BF-Gs (Rubicon) today so my Tazer purchase is probably a higher priority now so this topic caught my eye. Reading the docs in advance (like you do), I see some settings only remain in place while the Tazer is connected. But why would you ever disconnect it? Do you need to remove the Tazer if heading in to a dealership for a service so they can plug their equipment in? I'd be interested to know if the wheel size setting sticks after the firmware update @Volant165 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested to know if the wheel size setting sticks after the firmware update @Volant165 Removing Tazer for dealer visit is recommended in Tazer manuel and I read a topic in Wrangler JL forum as well a guy went to dealer with Tazer installed and while they were updating the software I reckon, Jeep locked itself somehow. So I thought better remove then be sorry later but didn't realize that is extremely tight space there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
