    The wiring that's laying on the seat is from your handle? If so it needs to be replaced.

    Model S - Door handle presenting, but the door will not open!

    The harness in the pic has 2 switches. The new replacement is longer and is installed better to prevent the wire breaking.

    Qwik jack kit? 3d print blocks?

    To change a flat can you Baja mode the air suspension, block the corner up, deflate and have enough clearance to pull off the flat and replace with a donut?

    Newbie Questions (Avoid if newbies annoys you)

    You may need to confirm your house wiring is okay for the wall charger. The mobile charger is simpler if not.

    Newbie Questions (Avoid if newbies annoys you)

    On your touchscreen there is a lightning bolt charge symbol, touch it and all the chargers in the area will display. Click on a super chrgr and navigate to it. Plastic weather tech floor mats are good for dirt and spills.

    Need parts, ignored by service center.

    OK, it's been a while since I was there. On the app you can schedule a service appointment as "other", at the bottom of the options page. The bot will set up the order.

    Door handle issue.. does not pop out, door now opens on its own

    That will probably work. If there's a service center nearby then I'd go there to confirm.

    Door handle issue.. does not pop out, door now opens on its own

    A continuity check could confirm but if its not the problem then you'll need the harness for another handle sooner or later.

    Door handle issue.. does not pop out, door now opens on its own

    A new harness will replace the trigger wire that's broken inside where you can't see it Very common,.

    Door handle issue.. does not pop out, door now opens on its own

    Is the handle flush (like the others) when retracted? There's a fine adjustment for the handle being flush to the door when retracted and another for the triggering of the opening when you pull the handle.

    Tesla S dirt in speed sensor. Bms_f027 BMS_w027

    Have you seen this one? He doesn't use jackstands, probably because of the height. It's dangerous. The typical rotor shaft damage means a new seal won't last long. Maybe that will be solved with the new coolant delete manifold from QC Charge?

    Tesla S dirt in speed sensor. Bms_f027 BMS_w027

    The codes sometimes show up long before the system shuts down. When the coolant starts to get into the electronics then a code results from grounding happening where there isn't supposed to be any. For a shutdown to happen either there's coolant in a lot of places that should be dry or you got...

    Bought a non-running Tesla Model S at auction - Have questions

    Age is the issue. Low mileage could be due to the car sitting for years and that's not good for the battery.

    FUSC doesn't include destination charging?

    Plugshare will show multiple kinds of charging stations, some free. CCS are faster than destination but an adapter could be required.

    Help 2017 MX - Parking Brake Failure

    It's common for crusty brake pads to be the problem. Corrosion in small gaps where there should be grease. The friction causes the error.

    Low voltage battery

    You can go to the SC to purchase a battery. There's a chance that a part on top might not fit perfect so a second trip might be needed for an adapter.

    Model S - Door handle presenting, but the door will not open!

    It may depend on what generation handle you have. The electrified garage video is the best I've seen. If yours matches thiers then a link is there for the harness.

    Model S - Door handle presenting, but the door will not open!

    The problem with the handle is the switch harness. The wire looks good but its broken inside and harness needs to be replaced.

    Model S - Door handle presenting, but the door will not open!

    Could be the plug that goes to the window switch on the door panel. Please post a pic of the wire and the backside of the switch (its hidden behind a layer of foam. Disregard this suggestion if the switch moves the window.

    Whirring Noise on Regen Braking on 2015 Model S

    Original drivre unit? You need to check the speed sensor plug on the drive unit for contamination. There should only be oil on it. If there's coolant fluid also then you need a rebuild.

    Stephen Colbert Warns Tesla Owners: Everyone Hates Us

    History=facts. The first cars backfired a lot, spooked horses trampled pedestrians. It wasn't cool to walk back then, like now, so cars weren't banned. Cheap labor=affordable ice cars and high demand for petro until shareholders see alternatives.

    Stephen Colbert Warns Tesla Owners: Everyone Hates Us

    He may have written that line but it could have come from the any of the large staff of writers. If they agreed that it could get a laugh then he has no problem being the butt of a joke. He even explained his ear deformity on the show, most stars would have that fixed.

    Stephen Colbert Warns Tesla Owners: Everyone Hates Us

    It's ironic that he posed as a Conservative during his Colbert Report days and now is openly progressive. Now he makes millions roasting the Rump every night who gave large campaign sums to the left before posing as a progressive conservative.

    Sealing off sunroof

    The ppf appears to be easy to work with from videos. Using strips over the gaps and double layers? A shop might sell you some odd leftovers.
