I have the Tazer Mini on my JT with the front trail cam and I love it except I think I boo booed. I was going through the settings and I came across the Camera EN under the Radio menu. It was set to OFF. I thought to myself, I should set that to ON and did. The next setting was Cargo Cam OFF and I set that also to ON.
BIG OOOOPS! I didn’t do a proper full reboot followed by 2 complete sleep cycles because I didn’t read the instructions. When I wanted to access the cameras I got a blue screen and a message Camera System Unavailable or something. UGH. Texted support and had to change Camera EN to NO, Cargo Cam OFF, Full Reboot, 2 full sleep cycles, Unmarry, Marry, but now I have TWO magnifying glass icons on the Rear Camera screen, one of which is right over the Truck Icon and backup cam but does nothing but block the Truck icon partially and the second one is right below the truck icon which is the OEM location and it DOES still function to shown the hitch. Sooooooooo, looks like I’ll be doing a battery disconnect to go back to FULL Factory OEM settings to see if that fixes the double magnifying icons getting rid of the nonfunctional double in the upper left corner.

Will edit with results later today

Ok, maybe I am missing something. Help me out here. Got my Mini today, and the SGW is proving extremely difficult to unplug so I can plug in the Tazer. I mean, I am pressing the little tab on the back and pulling straight down (gently) on the wires and they are NOT budging. Anyone have this happen? Any tips? I don't want to damage something in there. Frustrated!!
I have large hands so i pressed on the tabs with a screwdriver and pulled gently on the wires, took some time but got it done.

I was thinking...... (This is when the wife says “Uh Oh”).
It would be awesome if ZAutomotive offered a pair of 6” extensions so that if and whenever you need to remove the Tazer Mini and restore to factory for warranty then it would make the task really easy after initial install. Those plugs are a sonofabitch to remove. Anybody plug ‘em back in yet? How fun is that? And then you get to unplug ‘em AGAIN to reinstall when you get it back from service. Oh Joy!
ZAutomotive are you listening? (If you are, you can ship a set to me for giving you the idea? PM me. LOL)

Same and same. The screwdriver did the trick!

Can I use the tazer to enable the aux switch bank if I add it. Or do I still need to get the dealer to flash the system?

Everytime I plug in and unplug my Tazer I cut the hell out of my knuckles. You'd think there would be an easier way.

I’m using the tazer mini on my jt.
How hard was it to install? I’m having a hell of a time trying to disconnect wires behind the dash to get it plugged in.

It was kind of a pain for sure.Took me about 40 minutes to get it unplugged.
Was afraid of stripping the wires out of the plug while disconnecting.

I feel lucky. My plugs came right out. I had it setup in just a few minutes. No auto start stop is awesome.

I put led bulbs in my sport and I haven’t had any issues at all.

So interesting I had just recently got the cheaper option, the lite, and I hadn’t drove at night. Then we started harvest, saw the backup camera glare issue, was gonna get the upgrade but I installed the tazer first and low and behold the license plate blanking works on my lite, so I don’t have to upgrade!! Just wanted to let everyone know as It says it’s not on the lite version vs mini

Tazer mini - same install. If you decide on full features, you can pay for the upgrade.
