Thanks Carl. I have an appointment to take it to the Tysons Corner SC this Thursday so hopefully it will be fixed without too much fuss or expense.

This sounds complicated. Thank you.

The charging door spring on my 2.5 fell/broke off when opening it this evening. Is this an easy repair or am I looking at taking off the entire left rear panel? I have no idea where the spring went (it appears to be somewhere in the inarards). The door still works so I suppose I can live with...

Thanks so much! It is only rarely that I have tried "commands" and then only recently for the TPMS functions, relying instead on the OVMS app for most functions. The changes from v2 to v3 went completely by me! Mark, I really appreciate your quick reply.

For some reason, my OVMS has stopped responding to most shell commands. My OVMS returns an: "Unrecognised command" response to DIAG? GPS? GPRS? MODULE? SERVER? and VERSION?. My OVMS does substantively respond to the STAT and the TPMS commands. My OVMS is running Firmware: 3.3.003/ota_1/eap...

The front TPMS Antenna - What tends to go bad with it? Is it corrosion on the connection, or do the internal electronics fail and if so is the only remedy a new one, and is it only available through Tesla or can I obtain one elsewhere? Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks!

Need assistance with a TPMS issue on my Roadster 2.5. I am consistently getting the TPMS dash and VMS error messages about 20 minutes into each drive which in the past have indicated either the TPMS monitors were not synched after a changeover from summer to winter tires, or alternately a...

Yes, East Coast would be good

Hi. Can anyone help me with where I could find a replacement trunk latch for my roadster? It appears to be a Ford part from a number of older Ford cars but I do not see any US listings for it anywhere. Thank you.

Yes! An error message there would be ideal. Thanks!

I just swapped out my summer wheels for my winter wheels today. For the first time in almost 10 years, I was also able to write the "winter" tire TPMS ID numbers to the TPMS module, rather than chasing down someone at my Tesla SC and hoping they would find time, and find the tool, to do this...

This is the thread on the driver's door lock brackets: Emergency Lock Bracket Disconnected

The noise you describe is more or less normal depending upon the size of the bumps you are going over. But, there are things that could be unassociated with the rear suspension that you should also check as sometimes it is difficult to discern exactly where a noise is coming from. The rear...

Yes, I also had to take my door apart. As an update, the Steel Stick referenced above did not hold. On the advice of someone here on this forum for a similar repair to the emergency locking mechanism on the driver's door, I used the original J-B Weld...

Here is the order I found had to do it in, not following completely the above but maybe misunderstanding it somewhat. First, I erroneously thought I could "copy" the numbers I was getting in 'tpms read' into a tire set but that is not possible as the 'read' command inserts commas while the...
