Feature List
Tazer DT features can be broken into three categories:
• Vehicle Settings are accessed with the engine OFFOFF and the ignition in the “RUNRUN” position.
These are changes made to the truck such as tire size, gear ratios or settings which accommodate
other upgrades. These changes will continue to operate after the Tazer DT is unplugged.
• Live Functions are accessed with the engine ONON. These are operations the Tazer DT performs
live, only while it is physically connected.
• “Non-Menu” Live Functions are not located in a menu.are not located in a menu. They are activated automaticallyautomatically

then turn the ignition on (but not the engine) and repeat once more.
• This step is critical after changing settings or settings might not save, or you

PIN Lock Menu Supplement
These supplemental instructions apply to
all vehicles equipped with:
Firmware 18.2.3-041723 or newerFirmware 11.4.5-041923 or newer
Firmware 2.5.9-041823 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 and provides for the vehicle to
become immobilized in the event of an attempted theft
through triggering the PIN Lock, key pairing or triggering
the factory alarm. 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.
List of Menu Options (in order):
“Set PIN” set the desired button sequence (PIN). Changes to
“Clear PIN” once set
“Clear PIN” erase the PIN. Changes to “Set PIN” once selected
“Enable/Disable PIN” quickly disable or enable the PIN Lock
feature without erasing the PIN. This enabled by default
“KillPedalNow” a “high-security parking mode” which will disable
the gas pedal until the next time the PIN is entered
“PIN Brakes” toggle whether triggering the PIN Lock will lock all
four brakes when the vehicle is stopped.
“PIN Horn” toggle whether triggering the PIN Lock will cause the
horn to honk in a randomized pattern.
“PIN Lights” toggle whether triggering the PIN Lock will start a
Light Show.
“PIN Pedal” toggle whether triggering the PIN Lock or vehicle
alarm, or an attempt to pair a key, will disable the gas pedal. This
will function regardless of PIN enable/disable.
“KillByFob” toggle whether locking the vehicle from the fob will
disable the gas pedal.
“Carjack” toggle Carjack Mode, which triggers when the key exits a
running vehicle. This requires that a PIN is set and that PIN is enabled.
“PIN Clear Time” set whether it should take 10 or 60 minutes to
clear a forgotten PIN using the process described below. This is set
to 10 minutes by default.
Setting your PIN:
1. Select the “Set PIN?” option in the PIN Lock menu with
◁/BACK(HOLD) + CRUISE On/Off to begin the process.
2. Enter a one to six button sequence that will allow the
