I love reading this. Different people with different priorities taking different paths to solve a problem. My take... Tazer: is easiest, but most expensive. @Kevin_D: is cheaper, uses off the shelf components, and efficient. @ShadowsPapa: requires a bit of design and fabrication, but should...

Could be many reasons. Many large companies have a "house brand"; Tactik is one of their house brands. Perhaps when they created the storefront is was to only sell the Tactik branded stuff? Could be they prefer not to dilute the Quadratec brand and sales? The profit margins are generally higher...

That's because the scam listing has already been removed and the link now shows a legit version shipped by Amazon.

Yup. As long as you leave it plugged in. It's a live feature, not a programming feature.

Well, in that case, my driveway today:

Stopped for dinner last night after picking up the kid at the airport in Portland, ME. Came out to this guy making me feel small, lol. Nice Gladiator!

Well, the REAL easy button is just plug in a tazer... but I would still love to see your write up.

I suspect that in most places, it technically is not legal to disable the license plate lights while in reverse, so even IF the dealer could do it with a simple programming change (and they can't, as has already been explained above), no legitimate dealer would do it.

yea.

I believe its right at the top of the 2nd page you quoted: 02-004-21 https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/attachments/sb-02-004-21-lower-ball-joint-pdf.235469/ Google tells me there is also an 02-004-21 REV A, but I haven't seen a copy of that one yet to see what the change is.

Yea, turning off the license plate lights in reverse makes a huge difference. Nice to see a low cost hardware solution for that (the Tazer does it in software as a live function, meaning it has to stay plugged in).

I looked and thought it said "furry engraver" and stopped right there because I'm at work.

How's the dealership situation where you live? Is there a "friendly" dealer within a reasonable distance you can hit up for a second opinion? (assuming you don't want to check the plug out yourself first?)

I don't because if you want to use it, you have to turn off some other feature I wanted more (turn cam perhaps?)

Tazer mini does not piggyback onto the OBD2 connector. It replaces the Security Gateway waaaaay up under the dash. But, unless someone has recent firmware, AND has enabled the OBD2 passthrough, the OBD2 port apparently does not work properly bidirectionally. As of a month or 3 ago, there is a...

Since I'm not in a high risk area, the PIN would prob piss me off more than help, but getting back the auto park kill would be sweet. I'll wait a month or 2 to make sure no weird bugs turn up in this release, same as I usually do.

Do what Mike says, and if you want to take it a step further, disconnect them and look closely inside to see if a pin has been bent or pushed in. You can bend a pin, and still force it together and latch it. IMNHO, this is one of the worst design flaws on late model Jeeps. It would be fine on a...

Reading that thread, it appears the function is not necessarily intuitive or immediately noticeable. I regard @ShadowsPapa as one of the most knowledgeable and thorough posters in this group, and the fact that it seems HE had some issues would cause me to very carefully follow everything he...

@ShadowsPapa has a good write-up about it here. https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/enabling-auto-high-beam.39066/
