    Installed in a ‘21 Tacoma Off-Road;

    I’ve got all connections in the right place & secured (power lines, grounds, wiring to switch from module) but every once in a while will get intermittent On/off while driving. As in switch inside the cabin will turn on and off by itself for a few minutes.

    No bueno because I need my moose lights & cell booster powered when I’m driving in the mountains here in AK for work.

    Not sure why, but I noticed the issue stops when I try to record for proof- as if though my phone being connected to my head unit somehow affects power going to the SwitchPro 9100.

    Anybody else experience this issue? Tried calling SwitchPro for trouble shooting but I already ensured all connections were solid, ignition wire connection is secured, and trigger wires are good as well.

    Have you been able to put a meter to the connections when it has gone off?

    Good chance it's the ignition wire. Having your phone connected will override that signal and thus it won't occur with your phone connected if that's the problem.

    I used the supplied gator clip and ensured it was secured- should I opt to just butt connect instead/solder instead?

    Usually I don’t have my phone connected to the switch panel via Bluetooth; I mostly just have it running by itself and have my phone playing music via CarPlay USB

    Im usually on my 100 mile drive to work when this happens and it’s completely inconsistent. No way to know when it will decide on giving an attitude

    I get it, but figured I would ask...

    On your connections below the main fuse box, you have checked to ensure your tap is seated correctly?
