    Model 3 “turned off” while charging

    Sorry for the delayed response, but I think I discovered the problem. It is the seat sensor, but I'm a paraplegic and use an air cushion to sit on. It does a good job of skin protection (floatation), but also spreads out my weight to the point the seat sensor does not register. I need to reach...

    Model 3 “turned off” while charging

    I can try that. I guess I thought the car powered off during a brake and both scroll wheels reboot. My software is 2021.4.21.3

    Model 3 “turned off” while charging

    Update - rebooted (brake and both scroll wheels) and tried supercharging again today. Same issue. Charges just fine, but when you get in and shut the door, the car shuts down and a static screen appears showing the charging process. I can turn the climate control on with the app, but the only...

    Model 3 “turned off” while charging

    Thanks for the reply. My wife and I were both in the car and apparently only while supercharging charging (It's never happened before). I did not reboot because I’m still nervous about doing that away from the house and just wanted to charge and free up the spot. I’ll reboot and try a...

The screen showed charging, but the AC and radio turned off. My phone was connected and I could turn on climate though the...

    Question on extremely high energy usage

    Thanks uncertaintimes! I was a little spooked to see it, but that makes sense. I guess I’ll know for sure as I drive around normally tomorrow.

    Question on extremely high energy usage

    The instant range was really short (like 80 miles). Big Earl, that is what I was thinking/hoping. I had air on cold and nit putting any real miles on. I just could not make sense of the high usage spanning 2 miles. At most I drove a 1/2 mile in the parking lot.

    Question on extremely high energy usage

    As a new Tesla driver, I'm hoping someone can help me understand energy usage over 900 wh (off the graph actually). I just happened to look at the energy graph and noticed the last few miles showed very high usage. All I was doing is driving slowly around a parking lot and practicing backing up...
