Yes, but not through Bluetooth or Wifi, just USB. I don't think it has a Bluetooth radio.
USB is fine. And better, IMO. That makes it pretty flexible.

It's interesting that some dealership shops handle things in-house and others do not. The dealer I bought my truck through said if I wanted different rims, different tires, lift, that sort of thing, they referred me to tire shops and a 4x4 shop - they don't do that sort of thing (other than simple swaps)
But the dealership I go to for warranty and other work - which is much closer and smaller, has a dedicated accessories sales guy and they do lifts, wheel and tire sales and swaps and more.

This was done by them, sitting in their showroom. Not cheap, of course, they make their money on the mods, but still - they do it... lifted, much larger tires and wheels.

I just ordered a Sport S in White. Love this look. Can you tell me how much of a lift that is? And what tires/rims you went with?

Hey there,

This is my first Jeep, and its currently being shipping to the dealership. I have already bought a set of 37s and will be doing the Mopar 2" lift. I called my local dealer and they told me they won't calibrate 37s only 35s... has this been the experience everywhere or should I ask a different dealership?

How do I calibrate so my jeep knows it has 37s?

TIA
I know I should have read the entire thread, but wanted to share what dealerships are capable of, if they have the right techs.

Dealership can now reprogram / calibrate speedometer and odometer for bigger tires

That was a truck in the local dealer's show room. I'm sure it's long gone by now. Don't recall the lift or wheels they put on it.

I was showing how even dealers put on lifts and bigger tires so can't say "no warranty because you have a lift" - because even dealers install such things.

Maybe someone can recognize the wheels Dewey used from this pic?

I see people saying that all the time but I have yet to see anything it does that I want or can't do otherwise.
I used the Tazer JL mini to activate the 115v bed outlet that I added where the JSCAN apparently cannot. I’m sure there’s other things as well, I don’t enjoy buying things twice, so I’d rather have the more capable unit.
