Does anyone know if the TAZ units can change the set point as to when the seat and wheel turns on ?

I understand at startup makes sense. But has not been over 40 degrees here for weeks. Always starts at 55 no matter what temp is outside. This picture was taken about 5 minutes after starting.
Sounds like you might need a reboot... disconnect one of the battery terminals for 60 seconds and re-attach... that usually reboots all the computer systems. If that doesn’t help, a trip to the dealer may be in order! ;{

With the start/stop system there are two batteries - the smaller hidden battery handles electronics while the engine is off at a stop light.

I don’t think the main battery disconnects when the engine stops via start/stop... but I still think the main terminal will hardboot the cpu.

I'm trying to get the wheel heater/seat heater to go on during autostart. I go into settings and choose that option yet they don't go on during autostart. Anyone run into this? I'm guessing it's user error but I can't figure it out!

I have the same issue. It is below 40 degrees and the seat and steering wheel settings are correct. The Gladiator is brand new <500 miles and this problem and rear camera are issues. Not what I expected for such an app expensive vehicle.

Wow they limited by outside temperature LOL what if I am a candy a$$ who used to live in CA and now in the mid-west who can't handle 42 degs :P

I was wondering the same thing cuz it felt like it worked a few times and then it didn't, that's because the outside temp did dip to 34 a few times this past week. Thanks for the info!
I second that. I prefer to hike in the desert over 105 degrees normally. I am a winter candy a$$.
