PIN Lock Supplement
These supplemental instructions apply to
all vehicles equipped with:
Firmware 18.1.7-111422 or newerFirmware 11.4.1-111422 or newer
Firmware 2.5.6-111422 or newer
The Tazer PIN Lock allows you to set a steering
wheel button sequence (PIN) that must be entered before
the vehicle can be driven. This is the most complex feature of
the Tazer and provides a high level of security against vehicle
theft. This PIN will need to be entered when the vehicle is
started or after you exit the running vehicle with your key.
Select the “Set PIN?” option in the Live Settings menu with
◁
/BACK(HOLD) + CRUISE On/Off to begin this process.
Setting your PIN:
After selecting “Set PIN?” from the menu, you will be prompted
to enter a one to six button sequence that will allow the
operator to drive the vehicle. Your button choices are:
• Cruise + (+)
• Cruise - (-)
• Cruise Cancel (<)
• Cruise RES (>)
and if you have Adaptive Cruise Control
• Near ACC (N)
• Far ACC (F)
• ACC Enable (A)
Hitting a seventh button will abort the process. Save your
PIN with CRUISE On/Off.
After turning the vehicle off, this PIN will now be required to drive
the vehicle and “Set PIN?” will change to “Clear PIN.”
After turning the vehicle on:
1. a 20-second countdown will begin
2. the green parking light icon will blink
3. the dashboard turn indicators will blink and click
Enter your PIN and the countdown will stop. The dashboard
screen will read “PIN Unlocked.”
Failure to enter the PIN before the countdown ends will
cause the ABS pump to lock all four brakes while the interior
ABS light ashes. This is to remind you to enter the PIN and
will not bring attention to the vehicle.
Shifting into gear without entering the PIN will lock the
brakes, in addition to starting a Light Show. You will not be
able to move the vehicle until you enter the PIN, after which
this will stop.
Carjack Mode:
When the vehicle is running and you leave the vehicle with
the key and close the door, the vehicle will continue to be
fully operable for 20 seconds.
If the PIN is not entered within those 20 seconds:
If the vehicle is stopped, the brakes will lock. Attempting to
shift into gear from this state will trigger a Light Show.
If the vehicle is in motion, once it slows to 5MPH, the
brakes will jam and a Light Show will begin. This will render
the vehicle immobile until the PIN is entered.
Clearing the PIN:
To remove the PIN Lock, select “Clear PIN.” If the PIN was
entered when starting the vehicle, this will immediately
remove the PIN Lock.
Forgetting your PIN:
To remove the PIN Lock after the PIN Lock is triggered,
select “Clear PIN” from the menu. The dash screen will read
“Brake+Hazard.”
Turn on your hazard lights and apply the foot brake. This will
trigger a 10-minute countdown. Keep the vehicle running
and your foot on the brake until this countdown is nished
and the PIN Lock will be removed.
NOTE: In any instance that the vehicle is immobilized by the Pin Lock feature, in the Wrangler 4XE, the motor will
shut off and the vehicle will become stuck in Park instead of locking all four brakes.
NOTE: For best results, stow the Tazer in a place where it is not likely to be removed intentionally or accidentally.
