My progress with the Charlotte service center has been slow. After the tow to the SC, I've learned the embedded multimedia card was covered by the recall, but the unable to start/service is required is a different and not covered issue. As of May 11 my invoice showed the VCM cost fully covered...

This is great news. I checked eBay and prices range all over the place, whether new or used. A few had inaccurate part number revisions, for example one listed as an F was an A. Like everything on eBay, it pays to do thorough homework on what you think you're buying. None of the sellers seemed...

Yesterday I prepared for a tow to the service center.12v battery steady at 13.0v, but unable to roll up driver window. All console function gone. Luckily since my window was down I could still access the cabin. But unable to use any functionality of the app-inability to open frunk, trunk or...

I'm logging my progress and additional symptoms here, in an attempt to resuscitate my Model S. Yesterday I removed the trickle charger to see how the vehicle system managed the 12v battery. I was pleased to see today a number of items: vehicle range is holding steady at 199 miles, despite a...

That's interesting how Tesla service honored your claim, even though it was officially on an expired warranty. You were smart to log your request before the warranty expiration. My driver DRL is partially burned out, and since my 50,000 mile used vehicle warranty just expired, I'd doubt claiming...

Just so I'm clear, I'm actually trying to get at the bulb, so I don't need to split the male and female halves. My picture shows those apart. The connector going into the housing, how does it come apart from the housing?🤔

To make sure my 12v wasn't an issue, I got a new one that when installed read 12+v. I installed that 3 days ago, and I've been checking my messages since. I'm at 13.2v, still have the trickle charger on there. The good news is with the help of the app, the center console comes to life, and I can...

My 2016 Model S refresh headlight connector disassembled at the connector by inserting a small screwdriver as shown in the first photo. The blade was pushed in toward the headlight and then gently levered to release the tab. This released the male-female halves from each other. Int the second...

This is an excellent start to solving my problem. I was able to gain entry to the cabin (!) once battery charge read 12+v, so I pushed the 2 scroll wheels after depressing the brake, and oh so briefly, got the center console working. Enough time to engage TOW mode! As an aside my date of...

On March 30 my vehicle had a high pressure temperature sensor replaced to correct a lack of A/C. Prior error message was vehicle performance has been reduced. Refrigerant recovery and recharge was also done. The A/C has since worked flawlessly. On April 24 I got the error Vehicle may not...
