    Towing with the new 16v battery

    Did you find a supported brake controller for your Model Y? I have a 22 MYLR w factory towing. Tesla's low voltage system sends 15.5 v to the brake controller wires.

    Help me with the math for a U-Haul trailer

    Check to make sure the trailer has brakes for loads over 1650# (Tesla Owners Manual) over 1500# (CA law - check your state) MY 2022 isn’t currently working with trailer brakes. No power to the 7 pin.

    2202 MYP tow connector DOA?

    Hi, the brakes and blinkers are working on my March 22 MY. Rocklin service says corp told them it’ll be a two part fix- new set and wiring (harness? module?) I’d encourage taking it in and adding your vehicle to the Aux 12v fix list. The other stuff should be simple. Good luck!
