Is your car set to display "Rated" range or "Ideal" range? Look in Settings, under Display, then Energy Display. Ideal is greater than Rated. I don't know which range type is referenced when they say 370 miles.

I just can't give up on this! I can't sleep at night. jk The only thing we have not seen a picture of is your junction box, where you split the power coming from the main circuit breaker. Can we get a picture? I can't imagine what might be wrong in there. Have you tried reversing the power wires...

I would try disconnecting the small ground wire from the comm wire to the ground lug. I don't see how that would cause your problem, but it's worth a try. I have heard that the Tesla is finicky about having a proper ground for charging, especially when using a portable generator. If that does...

You didn't answer my question re: "The comm cable is grounded on the master end only". I see nothing about grounding the comm cable in the instructions. What did you do there? Can you take a new picture without all of those other bare wires in the box? You are scaring me! I do see a small wire...

In your pictures it appears that the black and red power wires in the Slave unit are misaligned with the terminal block. Did you use ferrules on the ends of the power wires? Looks weird. Have you done a continuity check on the comm wires, both end to end and between the black and white wires to...

Saw this on Craigslist: Tesla Model S Parcel Shelf

I notice that when selecting the new "Arcade" button that my DRL's come on. If I get out of the driver's seat, the DRL's go off, quietly. If I press the "Exit" button on the Arcade screen, the DRL's go off, along with two loud clunks up front. Can anybody duplicate this? What is that clunk?

A Tesla agent called me a few days ago to ask if I was interested in trading in my 2014 Model S85. I own it outright. I was not interested, so I didn't ask for any specifics on what they were offering. Tesla, call me back if you want to make an even trade for a 2018 Model S P100D.

It looks like there will be Tesla parking on both sides of the pedestals, thus there are two for each parking slot, one for each side. I have never seen this arrangement at a SC before.

I have a Blackvue DR650GW. I am using the Power Magic Pro with it. My timeline: Model S 85 delivered September 2014 Blackvue DR650GW installed - February 2015 First 12 volt battery replaced April 2017. Lasted 2 years and 7 months. Second 12 volt battery replaced November 2017. Lasted 7 months...

That's like saying "I am going to the store for some groceries. Is there anything I should look out for?" On a more serious, and helpful note..... I have a 2014 S85. It has been a great car. But they are all different and can have different problems and concerns. I recommend that you take the...

I can't believe Tesla has not updated the air in my tires. It is the same air that was in there when I bought the car. Jeez. I feel like I could use a forum bidet right now.

I bought one of these Wall Connectors from an eBay seller. Not listed as a Canada seller. Listed price $345 with free shipping. I offered him $300 and he accepted. It arrived in about a week. It was shipped from Newark, CA with a Tesla Packing Slip inside the box. I installed it in my garage the...

The ranger just left my house. He replaced the 12 volt battery in my car with a DCS-33UNCR made by C&D Technologies. He tells me that this is a "nanocarbon" battery. The battery he replaced was also the same model of "nanocarbon battery. That battery was a replacement for my original battery...

The final fix for me was entering Content-Type as application/json in the Header section of the Set Charge Limit section. None of the other sections, except the initial "Tokens" section, required me to enter the Content_Type application/json into the header section again in order for the...
