Any Issues with Tazer DT 18.2.6 Firmware and 2023 Ram 1500 Big Horn Night Edition?

I know that the InMoNav on UConnect 5 has issues. I emailed TAZER and they said they are having issues on UC5 and look for the next firmware as they are working on it. Other than that no issues.

I have UConnect 5. Good to know this info, thanks. Maybe this latest run of CEL and DTC codes is because I enabled InMoNav recently, so maybe I'll disable InMoNav and leave the rest of my selected functions enabled.

• Unmarried
• KillByFob = Enabled
• InMoNav = Enabled edit: change back to Disabled
• AutoFold = Enabled
• AmberDRL = Both

Got a follow-up reply from Z Automotive re: the U103C-00 code.



Not sure what "also related" means, but it sounds like having the TazerDT and a kill switch both ("also related"?) may trigger the CEL and throw the U103C-00 code.

One thing I have to say about Z Automotive: they are giving good communication with support and aren't making excuses or dismissing my questions. They are owning up to the fact the CEL will be triggered and DTC codes will be thrown with the TazerDT and it's expected.

They always seem to be helpful.

I got another CEL today with the TazerDT with an onslaught of DTC codes -- (7) of them!

PCM
P2166 = ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR 1 MAXIMUM STOP PERFORMANCE
P0116 = ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR PERFORMANCE
U0418 = IMPLAUSIBLE DATA RECEIVED FROM BRAKE SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE

BCM
U1514-87 = ENGINE CONTROLLER SECRET CODE : MISSING MESSAGE

ABS
P0100-00 = MASS OR VOLUME AIR FLOW CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
U0401-00 = IMPLAUSIBLE DATA RECEIVED FROM ECM/PCM

RFH
U103C-00 = KIN/IGNM COMMUNICATION : NO SUB TYPE INFORMATION

Guess what I'm doing today...

...I just finished pulling the TazerDT out of my truck.

Z Automotive said to ignore the CEL and DTC codes and that I'll drive myself crazy chasing down the DTC codes that the TazerDT will keep throwing, and it's just expected.

Yeah, but... what if I have a real DTC code that needs immediate attention?

So out it comes and going up for sale. Maybe someone else likes the features more than the DTC codes and from what I've read it's the 2022+ and UConnect5 that seem to have issues with the TazerDT the most.

Ya that is what I have heard 2022 and newer (bummer) works good in my 2021
