New to this thread. The geek within me got me very interested so I just want to throw out an idea or 2. The physicist is right, but in a very ideal condition. That's why it doesn't happen in real life cars. The reason for ice car that gunning it to speed limit use more gas than...

Hey Guys, I'm doing some sound project and want to remove the subwoofer (doesn't need to disconnect if not necessary) I heard of people frying the amp and other horror stories about it. One of the nuts holding the subwoofer/amp in place is actually the ground, so i'm hesitant to just unbolt...

The latest latch suction motor from hansshow with the emergency release integrated seems to “decouple” the cable from the pulley inside the latch motor assembly. I tried it even without power (I just unplugged that part) and it’s able to let go of the pull cable. Then with the suction motor not...

It’s got the hansshow guy on WhatsApp while he’s online. Had a 2 hours chat and I started using google translate to talk to him. Finally got him to understand what I’m saying. He recommended some adjustment, which I highly doubt would work. But told me to let him know if it doesn’t, he’ll...

Yes that’s my car in the video. The problem is when the hood is trying to open. When the hood is getting pushed up by the strut, the secondary latch is blocking it until a bit later. The tension builds up on the hood until the secondary latch releases, then it spring open with quite a bit of...

I have a video, but can't attach it here for some reason. The picture is the suction motor that I got. I have the 2 bolt latch assembly. The video actually shows that everything works well excetp the secondary latch is blocking the hood from going up. here's the link to onedrive...

which one is the primary and which one is secondary latch? So the latch that the hansshow cable pull is ok, it releases properly. Then the next safety latch (I think that’s the second one and it’s release by Tesla itself) is releasing too late (or the strut motor start lifting the hood too...

Mine is actually a model 3 (realized afterwards that this is model y forum) and it’s from 2020

I just realized that my latch assembly should quite different. Hands shoe part only add that pull cable from the right. I don’t have another plate for it.

Hey guys. Late to the party. Just installed the frunk from hansshow and the strut motor starts pushing up the lid before the secondary latch releases, resulting in failure to open or bending the lid before it lets go. Wondering if anyone has experience with this. Thabks

Got mine installed. The hansshow control makes the car think the frunk is closed after it’s opened. It probably close the sensor micro switch for a second to make it thinks the frunk lid is down to reset it to the closed status. Btw, I have a problem where the strut motor starts pushing up...

You are right, that resolved my first problem. second problem is that the strut starts pushing the lid up before the secondary latch disenaged. Anyone has similar problem ?

how do you reset the control box ?

Got mine installed. Looks like the strut starts pushing up before the secondary latch is unlocked. Sometimes it’s pushing so hard the secondary latch got stuck and can’t unlock. Anyone has experience with that? Looks like a firmware update from hansshow would solve it. Wonder if anyone has...

I had been looking through hope it works. Loud like with the latest latch motor, you need to pull that cable. Then use the 9v battery to release the truck. If that doesn’t work you may need to pull and hold it while doing the 9v battery trick.
