    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    There seems to be a building of IC talk.... Yes the IC has a eMMC. we have seen a small amount of them wear out.... We are still looking for a good replacement chip and will start offering repairs if needed once we have a suitable chip.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    You lose nothing at this point. Sorry if already answered. We are unfortunately not very caught up on this thread. Glad it still helps people. The extra space is simply used to wear level.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Actually, the firmware also lives on eMMC, in the P1 and 2 partitions. It is also loaded into RAM, however likely partially since the firmware can be up to 1 Gig, and it escapes my memory (pun intended) how much there is.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    We have recently seen a Tegra board fail that was replaced by Tesla under recall. We are still looking into it but it appears the eMMC is fine and some other component has failed. It's likely a one-off issue, however Tesla has told him his "MCU has failed, and need to upgrade to MCU2 for over...

    This can be done. We have Used HID lights available. We have converted the HID to LED using all OE parts and controls. LED and HID can also be done in a very similar way. However this is not something we can do remote and we can old do at our location. Using HID with upgraded projectors...

    Alternative tire sizes for 20" wheels

    Car is lowered about 1.25" I had a set of tires on the rear that were 275x35x20 that came with a set of wheels, the smaller diameter had too much gap all around for my liking. I was glad when the tires wore out and I went back to 285x35.

    Alternative tire sizes for 20" wheels

    This is the mentioned set of wheels. 285x35x20 in front and 335x30x20 in the back.

    Alternative tire sizes for 20" wheels

    We have installed 335 in the rear on the new body with no rub, the setup is pretty specific and made by Signature Wheels. I run 285/35/20 with different offsets and have not had any rub on my original body style.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Sorry, im not fully up to date on the thread, but this caught my eye. The larger chip is not partitioned to allow the user all the space (unneeded) but the chip does utilize all the space for wear. Tesla has also reduced logging significantly. A replaced chip perform well and will last much...

    Vendor PWS on MCU1 AP1 car Retrofit

    Unfortantly mcu2 configs cant be changed by us at this time. If a car got this before mcu2 upgrade, then it should work as long as the tech copies the config over.

    MCU1 black after reboot, is it bricked?

    Original chips had almost no free space. The new ones have 56 gigs free, use 8.

    The chip self wear levels. The current chips are partitioned the same as original.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    We have also seen this error, Does not matter what eMMC is in the car. Our guess is the error is do to some remaining corrupt data that was migrated, or will trigger when a response is not within the expected limitations.

    Denied eMMC replacement - what to do?

    It is very normal, when they are servicing the mcu, the car's power is likely removed, and the mcu is likey outside of the car being worked on. The app connection requires the mcu to send the info to Tesla for app to see the car.
  22. EV-Fixme

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    This does seem to happen some times. We've seen that mcu continues to work normally while showing the error. There may be some specific firmware that shows shows this error while MCU works fine. We have not had a chance to trace this down but it seems to be a incorrect warning message. Your...

    Frame Failure called "Normal Wear and Tear" by Tesla Service

    Small motor uses different subframe. Base and Sport motor are same physical size, different power capability.

    Frame Failure called "Normal Wear and Tear" by Tesla Service

    Interesting, I've looked at the newer subframe online and they appear to look the same. Will see if we can find on in person to see if we can find the difference.

    Frame Failure called "Normal Wear and Tear" by Tesla Service

    Im not sure about being improper installation. The cases we have seen the 2 tabs are cracked which is most apparent. However when we took a closer look we also saw there were 2 additional cracks in the frame where the weild was, and extended beyond.

    We replace rear subframes for far less than 3000+ We generally see P cars crack the rear mount and part of the subframe.

    Rear Toe Links worn out after 5000 miles?

    That does sound very strange. Most cars we see have their original toe links, even the ones we replace seem to have life left in the bushings. A couple cars to note had 170k and 190k miles... The N2 ones have a 8 year warranty on the bushings. But I suspect there may be other issues causing...

    MCU1: Black center screen / mcu failure caused by a faulty navigation MicroSD card

    Currently we have tested 1 SanDisk card to be compatible and working. We are getting a batch of them for sale. The price wont be the cheapest as they are coming from a verified vender to ensure we are not getting counterfeits. However pricing will not be out of line either.

    Try a reboot, a new board should boot in 90 seconds. Old boards are much slower.

    Model S Aftermarket Wheel Fitment/Offset Discussion

    It depends on the car. One of our cars could not get proper toe with factory. AFAIK the car was never in an accident. Custom toe arms finally got the car to be able to align into spec.

    Replacement MCU1

    We have seen a couple cars where the SC likely used a different revision of Tegra (daughterboard) which required a LTE gps board upgrade to restore nav functionality. The symptom is total nav failure in what we have seen.

    Non-serviceable Parrot Module Failure in MCU1

    Most likely eMMC failure. Seems like your wifi/bluetooth driver file is corrupted, hence the loss of both functions, both are the same driver file.

    Firestone couldn't do wheel alignment on Tesla

    There are some procedures run after an alignment that the shops dont have. However in our expierence a good alignment will get the car aligned and drives fine without the tesla listed software procedures.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    It can be challenging to seperate between programing "bugs" from different versions vs eMMC related issues. One way to help is if the issue is mass reported for a issue on a specific version. There are many "bugs" that can have effects that are very similar to eMMC signs of failure.

    Vendor N2itive Camber arms, Toe arms, and Lowering Links installation in Orange County area

    Hi Douyon1, this kit should fit on the 2020 MX. AFAIK the 2020 still has limitations of rear suspension adjustment, the arm would allow the -1 camber adjustment, and depending on the height and car the toe kit may or may not be needed. The lowering links will still allow the 2020 to be...

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    The slightly newer MCU does need wireing changes to be installed into the old cars, the same wiring will allow MCU2 to connect. Sorry your having challenges due to the timing of your repair. Hopefully they realize soon and credit you back.
