    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    I think this pretty common with humans. I think I used to brake like this a long time ago. My wild ass guess is that humans want to be sure they're going to stop in time so brake hard early because they don't fully internalize how fast a car can stop. Then they let up. Since V12 is trained...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    Yeah, in V11 you *felt* a robot was driving when it was going wrong. With V12, even when it is going wrong, *feels* more like a human driver getting it wrong. Some of this obvious, less wheel jerking (not quite zero). But I'm not sure that as human I don't do micro corrections that are...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    Notes from today's drives: Around where I live it is still way better than V11. Most of today's drive was going to be freeway so that was going to be pretty boring (since that part is V11). I did see that "autospeed" for the freeway is not a straight "10 over". It set a speed max speed of 63...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    I seriously doubt that. We got in on our Y which my wife drives primarily and she doesn't use FSDb. Our 3 is still waiting. I use FSDb almost always when I drive but I don't drive that much.

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    It switches from "auto" to a number when going from city streets to fwy. I think is where the stack switches from V12 to V11. I don't know how it comes up with "10 over" for freeway. I haven't seen any other numbers, but I don't have a lot of drives either. I don't if the volume wiggle is a...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    One word to describe V12.3 (coming from V11) is smooth. I agree with an earlier post described how V12 doesn't seem to do wild wheel jerks. Even with my first V12 disengagement was from the car smoothly entering a center lane to turn and then drifting into the double yellow towards the...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    I don't how I missed it, but the release notes clearly spell out: "FSD Beta v12 upgrades the city-streets driving stack to single end-to-end neural network trained on millions of video clips, replacing over 300k lines of explicit C++ code." That is the extent of the release notes. So...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    I'm curious about this too. Outside of last night's brief drive, I don't drive just to test FSDb. I consider myself a reasonably defensive driver and notice V11s poor lane positioning. Your question did remind me that a few times I looked at the car positioning as indicated on the screen...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    I got another drive in: set to assertive and I enabled "autospeed" I've read about the excitement for many pages and got to experience it last night and today's drive continues the optimism. The short version, is it perfect, no. Is it significantly better than V11. Heck yeah! In my very...

    Things That Tesla Has Fixed

    I could have sworn it has had an alarm for a very long time. If you try changing lanes and it "senses" a car there it will make a noise. It's not something I've experienced in years because I try to make it a habit to not move into lanes that are occupied. I'm old school, I still look over to...

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    Also got V12.3 from V11.4.9 on our HW3 Model Y [edited to add HW3] Took a very short drive with practically no traffic but I still got to quickly see improvement. Basically, the little loop I took had plenty of places that V11 was either failing completely or doing poorly and V12 did quite...

    Battery backup without solar?

    You might want to consider the non-grid interactive solutions from the likes of Anker and Ecoflow (and other brands I'm not remembering at the moment). I have no experience with these, just seen and ads and watched a few videos about them. The key thing is they primarily intended to just...

    Would Tesla replace SolarEdge inverter / LG battery system with Powerwall?

    Tesla directly, almost certainly no. This is based on years watching this forum plus the occasional effort to get Tesla to do something "custom". A certified 3rd party installer, possibly. It sounds like you don't have an installer backing their work. A possible path to "rip and replace"...

    Burning 25ft 10/3 cords using my mobile connector in the rain with a 120v outside GFCI outlet

    My recommendation for the OP. Get one of the plug-in outlet testers that that has GFCI test button. Test that the GFCI outlet trips with from the extension cord. I think they're on the right track of getting something to keep the connection between the mobile connector and the extension. I...

    Burning 25ft 10/3 cords using my mobile connector in the rain with a 120v outside GFCI outlet

    GFCI don't work the way you think. The ground wire is irrelevant. Using a GFCI outlet is a code compliant way to replace a two prong outlet (without a ground). A GFCI is simply looking for the difference between the hot and neutral. You can search the internet for an explanation. How do...

    Good question from building inspector.

    I was looking for this as well and I couldn't find one. I think ended asking the question somewhere "here" and it was confirmed that the feature did not exist for the V1 gateway. It was likely @Vines. Edit: It turns out it was @miimura who confirmed what I found (or rather didn't find).

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    I think you can do the programming at any convenient location and then later edit the settings to change the location for the new entry so you don't have to be at the backgate to do programming.

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    Yeah, unfortunately that's the way it is right now. The only small consolation is it's just software so in theory someone could add the feature in the future. Have you verified that you could open the back gate with the same entry at least via the control's menu?
  20. arnolddeleon

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    There are still plenty of non-rolling code devices out there. In those situations, the remote is just sending a fixed ID/Code/whatever you want to call it. Based on the OPs initial description, the gates they are using are likely examples of those. As I understand it, Homelink tries to...

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    click on the icon or name DO NOT click on settings. You can tell you got it right because you will see the radiating green animation. Here is a clip that shows it: https://photos.app.goo.gl/PbKyiKNBmh8Yt7BC7 This should work if the cloning the remote was sufficient to make things work...

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    Are you sure you've read all the answers correctly? The answer is YES. I described it in text, and I see @stopcrazypp posted screen shots. You can manually activate an existing Homelink for whatever your heart desires.

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    So it turns out finding the button to manually activate a given Homelink entry is not as obvious/easy when the geolocation doesn't match how you saved it. What you want to do bring up the controls (car icon). Then on the controls page there is "tab" for the Homelink controls. If you press...

    Can you clone a Homelink entry?

    Yes, you can bring up all your Homelink entries manually. Just look above the space where they appear automatically. If I'm remembering correctly, there should be a touchable spot there.

    Tesla app refusing to connect to car despite phone being connected to car via Bluetooth

    check the app permissions. Make sure it is not battery optimized, it must be allowed to run in the background. If memory serves, it also wants location services for phone as key.

    Charge on solar with multiple vehicles

    We have a 3 and Y and it's pretty random which it attributes the charge on solar to. I've accepted the annoyance for now. The practical effect is the same. It will also sometimes attribute the car charging as house load but the data seems to eventually sort out. ooh, I haven't had both cars...

    No storm watch events this year...

    Also activated for me. According to the status in starts at 9:00 pm, the same time I made my post above. The notification however was from 34 minutes ago, which is in line with the 9:40 that others reported. Maybe someone from Tesla read the posts and figured out they had forgotten to press...

    No storm watch for me either this winter so far either. I set the reserve to 100% a few days ago in anticipation of the weather. Lost power a couple of times for a few seconds.

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    FWIW, here is an anecdote. I have practically had no issues with satisfying torque the steering wheel nag in two cars, a 3 and Y. My wife drives the same cars, and she has trouble with it. This at least suggests that at least some of the variation is definitely the driver. The only forced...

    Powerwall Gateway 1 is stuck on firmware 21.35.3; is there a way to upgrade it?

    I have a gateway 1, it's running 23.12.11. I still get data. It also happens to have a hardwire connection for primary, but I did configure the WiFi (although I haven't done a test to see if it works). Cellular stopped working some time ago (with the retirement of the gen 2? cellular...

    Told my Powerwall won't charge off Solar

    You mentioned your array size but not the size/quantity and model of your existing solar inverters. 12kW of solar panels 10 years ago has a decent chance of being on multiple inverters. You might be able to split your PV inverters if you have more than one. The theoretical problem is the PV...

    FSD Beta v11.x

    I've interpreted them to me an improvement in "recall" without making "precision" worse. Which I understand to mean as it will correctly identify 6% more distant object crossings. They don't define what distant object crossings mean but I guess that to mean figuring out if the distant object...

    Emergency Power PWs Shutdown Due to PV Overproduction

    I believe rapidly changing loads/production can also trigger a PV shutdown. This is also influenced by whether the PV system OP has curtailment features or it is binary on/off. But under normal circumstances (Powerwalls not full, ordinary operating temperatures, relatively steady load, etc.)...

    FSD Beta v11.x

    I ran some experiments today to try to intentionally put the car in neutral while driving to learn what that would be like. I made sure there were no other cars around me on a quiet road. The short answer is it would be very difficult to miss the car going into neutral. A quick swipe...

    FSD Beta v11.x

    FSD or some other fault? Did you do a bug report? It sounds like no power off; just park and then shift to drive. Any chance the car was accidentally put in neutral while driving? I've on a few times gotten the warning about trying to go to neutral when I was trying to cancel FSD with the stalk.

    FSD Beta v11.x

    Latency through that system is my guess for a top source of issues. I see FSD "twitch" for a pedestrian or bicyclist long after the event/situation where action was either no longer warranted or it was going to be too late anyway. As humans, we can see something late and probably "skip" the...

    A Lot of 1 minute outages?

    +1000 Intermittent issues are big ass bears. I've have an old Solar City inverter that would drop out when the other inverters in my system do not. I opened an issue with Tesla but never really got anywhere. I suspected that the grid voltage would just go outside of the spec for that...
