I tried charging it using the mobile connector and the basic 15amp 110volt outlet on the generator, but had no luck. As soon as I'd plug the car in, I'd get an error message to the effect of "communications error with charger" or something similar to that.

I've got a 23 MYLR that I usually charge on a 60amp circuit via the wall connector outside my garage. I have the mobile connector, and I usually just keep it in my car. Now I'm interested in being prepared in the event of an extended power outage in my area. When I first bought my house, I...

This seems to be a really hit or miss kind of thing. I'm not sure how much is up to state laws and how much is up to Tesla internal policy, and I've seen plenty of speculating, but little in the way of facts one way or the other. I can tell you, however, that I ordered my MY in my home state...

Hmm yes good point about the weather. When I tested it, it was indoors at my house, so it was shaded and about 70 degrees. The cooler would draw about 40 watts while the compressor was running. However I'll have to try it again when we're in the middle of the summer and place it outdoors in...

I actually ordered that exact one as well and it's arriving today. However I purchased a different from Walmart about a month ago and I'm going to see which one I like better. After some testing, I've discovered that as long as sentry mode is enabled, the rear 12 volt outlet will always stay...

Looks like I may need to correct this. I was camping over the weekend and using the 12 volt cooler. The first two nights all was fine, although on the third one I disabled sentry mode to save battery. When I woke up the cooler was also off. I tested this a little more when I got home and it...

I've read that the new Model Ys with the 16 volt battery keep the rear 12 volt outlet powered at all times, but I haven't seen an actual source for that. The current owner's manual states that: I bolded the relevant section. It states the 12 volt outlets are powered up whenever the vehicle...

Is it possible to change the default traffic visualization view? I can drag my finger around it to change the viewing angle and zoom level, but when I let go it snaps back to the default. 2023 MYLR, no EAP or FSD.

Give it another shot. For whatever reason, it just started randomly working a couple of days ago. I can scrub in Slacker perfectly fine.

I signed up for Spotify just to test this. It does indeed seem to work fine with Spotify and I can scrub the song as one would expect. Still no luck in Slacker. I sat for like five minutes trying over and over just to make sure the car didn't have some picky one pixel wide magic spot that I...

Beats me then, unless it just doesn't like me

Perhaps in Spotify or another app, but definitely in the one that I'm using for streaming. It's the orange icon with some vertical white lines. I'm not sure what the actual service is.

I'm looking at getting an electric compressor cooler and am trying to find the largest one that'll fit in the sub trunk of my 2023 MYLR5. I also have a couple of questions about how they work. This will be used while camping (in a tent, not the car). It'll be drawing power off the low voltage...

I guess I'm really bad at Google because I don't usually have to resort to making a thread for questions like this. I primarily listen to the built in Tesla media options. I'm not sure what that's called exactly, but I guess it's the music and talk and podcast options that come with the premium...

Definitely get the plug kit and a compressor. They're so cheap it's dumb not to. Just yesterday I was leaving work and saw that my 3 week old MY had a totally flat tire. I was able to use the compressor to get enough air into it to make it to my mechanic, although it was loosing pressure...
