Have people noted an increase in false alarms? Since 3 updates ago, which was about 10 days ago, my 2018 model X is slamming the brakes on the freeway. a couple times, I think there was a concrete overpass with afternoon sun behind it. After dark, I haven't figured out what it is reacting...

Got the EVSE working again! quite the struggle removing the relay due to the large heat sinks on the board sucking up the heat. Couldn’t get the solder to melt. Had to visit one of my electronics gurus. Had to cut off the relay’s legs and then cut down to the feet. From there we could work...

My gen 1 EVSE from my model S bought sept 2014, is working about half time. It signals red and sometimes starts to work with a replug or a whack. Got it open w dremel and rotozip. Nothing lose or burnt. Planning to replace the relay. Any other ideas? btw, this EVSE held up really well. I...

Still waiting for replacement module. The yellow trailer icon is always on and sometimes it’s blue. Have to keep manually turningntrailer mode off. Does anyone know if the trailer module can be unplugged for now? Auto pilot can’t be used while the trailer mode keeps turning on.

Once I get the bad module, I plan to debug it with an electronics friend of mine. maybe we can suggest an iimprovement to their circuits.

I took lots of pix but didn’t want to take too much space. The frunk removal is easy but tedious. I added a filter into the empty holder. Cut a hole in the frunk bucket and made a slit in the carpet liner. Fun project.

I installed a 1100 watt inverter in the frunk. 150 amp fuse. Hooked to lead acid battery posts. Hoping to gently run my inductive cook top for camping. Maybe AC on low in my camper pod in the summer.

Is either of these black color? Can I pick it up Wednesday? Thx. Mudfud1818 at comcast dot net

another front license plate idea for model X. folding or retracting this is the show-n-go that folds and slides under.

Tesla tech says that it looks like a bad control unit in the back. before he can "condemn" this module, he has to take the bumper off and check the wiring harness. He's supposed to return this afternoon, so more info to come.

I am having similar issues New model X has 7 pin receptacle. When I plugged my all LED My Pod trailer in, the lights first did not work. The trailer icon was not lit on dash. While driving up 50, the yellow trailer icon lit and I was told to turn on trailer mode, which made the icon turn...

I have the same problem. Tesla mobile replaced the buttons and it stopped working again after 2 days. They are scheduled to check this again next week. Mine did not work after reboot

hi guys having gone through all the iterations of front plate mounts for my MS four years ago (settled on J hooks and suction cups), I recently researched what's being done on the model X's for my new tesla. the concern that I had with another J hook or toggle bolt installation is that over...
