To preface, my ADHD and OCD are basically driving me bonkers after installing the tazer mini. Wanted a sounding board to hopefully sooth or confirm the dumb stuff I'm worrying about. Mostly it would be warranty stuff. Normally I wouldn't install anything that might void the warranty but have seen a lot of people running the tazer mini and my speedometer has always been about 1mph off. JT is a 2023 High Altitude which I changed out the factory 20" wheels and tires for factory rubicon wheels and stock size rubicon M/T tires which is a change from 275 to 285 and speedo was about 1.5mph off. I think I remember asking the service manager when I was in about them fixing it since it has always been about 1mph off(when stock) but he said that since I changed out wheels and tires it would cost about 300 bucks and said I could do it myself (tazer/jscan). I think... that wasn't put in writing anywhere. That compiled with all the other benefits that come with the tazer I decided to go ahead and purchase.
The only thing I have changed performance wise so far is the tire size. Everything else has been left stock. I put on the rear cam when turn signal on as well. But not a ton of changes as a lot of the stuff I wanted already comes turned on with the live features. When installing it went smooth, only wonky part was outside temp gauge read way higher, but that went away after driving a bit. I think it still reads a bit high but it's sitting on top of an engine so understandable.
So, now the stress part. I installed on Tuesday and tomorrow we are planning on leaving for a trip to TX, overall probably covering about 1.5k miles I believe. I have done a TON of reading on the tazer and seen various instances in which it would leave the battery flat and other things like limp mode and whatnot. I think the battery going flat is because it leaves the 8.4 screen on/dash screen on which I have checked multiple times that it goes off. Also one thing I noticed was that the led lights over the usb ports will stay on while all the other stuff turns off. From reading, this is standard and for the most part 99% of the time that cover is closed I only noticed it as I had left it up after having the phone plugged in using waze to check speedo vs. gps speedo. I checked this morning and the usb led's were off, unsure how long until they turned off.
Thus far everything seems normal I'm just stressing about something going wrong and/or something voiding the warranty. With that, I've also read that since it's installed and I changed tire size, even if I unmarry it and something happens dealer would still be able to see changes have been made and could void the warranty possibly so it's kind of if that's the case screw it, it's already done.
Basically just wanted a sounding board to advise to just calm down and let it go, or unmarry it and call it good. I've been bugging my buddy with question after question on it and feel bad for asking so many questions and as you can tell from the wall of text I'm being very OCD/ADHD about it. So just wanting to figure out how to stop stressing over it because with trip stress, work stress, and tazer stress I'm basically going nuts lol.
Thank you, let me know your thoughts, sorry for wall of text. Attached a recent picture with winch/bumper install.
edit: Firmware updated to latest before install. Also full reboot and 2 power cycles done per manual after tire size change.
