Yeah I’ve thought of spending a Saturday and trying that, but I’m thinking of just getting Bluetooth controllers.

I tried to use my 4 Port USB (non powered) hub on my HW4 Y for two game controllers and the sentry memory stick with no luck. I’m thinking an option may be to have a powered hub in the glovebox.

I also have the magnetic aftermarket hitch cover. It is the way to go, easy to remove and matches the fit well.

Hitch was about $800 (I got the one that can also tow a trailer with lights), and the bike rack was also about $800. Have not taken the bikes on a long enough trip to notice yet.

I installed the stealth hitch and use the Thule easy fold XT2 for our 2 e-bikes

ScanMyTesla shows the Battery Flow and Powertrain Flow always on, pumping 5.00 lpm. This makes a constant hum. This pump also circulates fluid through the computer. I believe this is why I see a higher phantom drain on the battery. Note; When I turn off sentry mode and power down car, the flow...

Powered down the entire system for 1 min, then powered up and my Zigbee is back to communicating at the SolarGuard site.

I believe this is happening to mine also. I have had snow for two days so once that melts I'll check again.

I may just try Teslascope and test it out. I was a subscriber of TeslaFi for a year and loved it but when I bought my new model 3 I found TeslaFi was keeping my computer (V3) fan on constantly. I canceled the subscription changed my password and the car finally would go to sleep and fan turned off.

I had a fan that constantly ran and drained the battery at 1 mile/ hour, 24 in a day. Tesla diagnosis found a app was keeping the computer fan on 24/7. I changed my password so TeslaFI could not connect and now phantom drain is 0 to 1 mile in a day. What a huge difference!

I’m also thinking of canceling my Jeda order and going with a different vendor. Ordered 3 weeks ago and still not received it.

I used TeslaFI extensively with my S and liked tracking all the data. With my new 3 with hardware ver 3, the TeslaFI app kept the computer fan on all the time non stop. I am discontinuing the app until they work the bugs out on the new hardware.

Tesla Virtual Diagnostics team contacted me and after reviewing my files and recordings determined that a 3rd party app (TeslaFI) was causing the computer fan to run nonstop to prevent overheating. I changed my tesla password, stopped my app from contacting the car, and low and behold the fan...

I turned off sentry mode and cabin overheat as I thought that may be the culprit but it still keeps humming along.

My week old model 3 seems to never shut down, It makes a whirring noise all the time. Garage is 60-70 degrees F and it doesn’t seem to be a fan noise. My model S was dead silent sitting in the garage. I’ve also noticed a constant battery drain of about a mile a hour. I will link a YouTube...
