Enabling auto high beam

[ShadowsPapa]

Just bumping this thread to see if anyone has done this yet for a '24+ yet, either via AlfaOBD or the Tazer?

I need to upgrade my AlfaOBD to the latest and get a new license for JSCAN to match my 2025 since they lock the license to a specific VIN.
I need to do a module config dump on this like I did on my other JTs.

I guess I figured that if you had the ACC and so on, they way they are bundling these things now, you'd have the auto-high beam.
they don't even list it on the equipment guide, but it's there in the vehicle.

They bundled it with the "active safety package", which this one didn't come with, but it has the ACC, FSFCW+, advanced brake assist, auto dimming rear view, etc. So I'm guessing all the hardware is there. But I was really wanting it for the wife's Wrangler (which also has all the other stuff).I'm dealing with a (minor and temporary) vision issue on top of everything else, so the last few nights she drove. Where we live is all dark, winding, backwoods mountain roads, and to be honest she's so focused on staying on the road and not hitting a deer or moose that she doesn't always catch those cues that there is a car coming around the bend in the other direction until she's blinding them with the highbeams + 320w lightbar on the bumper, and then she kinda panics about it. If I can enable the auto highbeams it's one less thing to worry about.

I would expect something like that to not change, other than maybe antenna designation or location - but even that is unlikely.
My 2020 was built in November - a full month before it was even offered as an option (added to the options in December 2019).

That's one thing my wife likes about all of the JTs I've had, and has said it's "get it" thing for her Wrangler.

Was it the exact same settings as shown earlier in this thread, and other threads about it here?

@ShadowsPapa , yes I used the instructions in this thread

That's great to know. I guess it means I need to unmarry the Tazer on both '25s and set that up. Thanks!

OK, used mine as the test subject. Followed the directions @ShadowsPapa posted using AlfaOBD. Part of me wanted to see if doing it in the Tazer would work now, but anything that can be programmed in I want in there for good, and I just use the Tazer for the live functions.
So unmarried the Tazer, made all the changes manually with AlfaOBD and then reinstalled the Tazer. FWIW, when I was setting up the Tazer again, it did correctly recognize that that the Auto High Beams were now there and enabled.

BEFORE:

AFTER:

Once I test it out, I'll do it in the Wrangler. Maybe I'll try the Tazer first.
