    Sunroof Tint

    I’m thinking about adding tint to my Model Y sunroof this weekend because I feel the heat on top of my head on a sunny day in California. Are there any facts whether tint on the Model Y sunroof will make it crack over time due to the heat? It’s been rumored but I never seen anyone actually...

    Time from install to PTO (PG&E)

    I received my PTO 2 weeks after PGE inspection. Then I found out my new inverter was fried and they are replacing it which will take 1+ month. What should I do?

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    Tesla came by today and said my brand new Solar Edge 7600 inverter was fried so they need to order me a new one. Is this common? I have the inverter installed outside. Should I ask them to install the new one inside the garage and patch up the holes on the outside?

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    Perhaps it's cycling on and off since I see the status lights cycle from solid green/blue to solid green/red every minute? I have 24 panels and I was estimated to produce 37 kWh a day or 13,763 per year. On PGE's website, it says I'm pulling on average 22 kWh from the grid per day which is the...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    Yes this was the first time I held the red button to P for longer than 5 seconds. I tried power cycling off the inverter multiple times when I was on the phone with Tesla's tech support but that didn't work. Here's my energy reading from the SmartMeter. That's odd that I only used 2 kWh for 4.5...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    I did a reset of the optimizers and it was cycling between solid green/red (which I don't see what the status is from the color legend) and solid green to solid green/blue. It would cycle between those colors every minute or so. I also tried to switch to the P for less than 5 seconds and it...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    Great question. It is in the On position (1 - in the middle). The lights would turn off if I had it in the Off position. Any other ideas why my Inverter isn't working?

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    My system size is 8.16 kW and my estimated annual production is 13,763 kWh. I use on average 20-25 kWh per day and I got a larger system in anticipation of getting a Tesla EV car. The reason why I don't think my system is on is because 1) my energy usage from PGE has increased since PTO 2) No...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    The status light is green. My PG&E SmartMeter read 2,443kWH this morning at 8AM and at 2,446KwH around 3PM. Does this mean there is something wrong and my inverter is not working? From the Tesla app, it looks like there was 0 production today. I'm hoping I can fix the issue instead of waiting 1...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    One more thing - I just viewed my PG&E energy usage and it shows I've been pulling 100% of my energy from the grid since PTO so it doesn't look the system is working.

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    The lights would cycle on between green and blue to all 3 colors sometimes. I believe it's not working because there's no production on the Tesla app and it's been one week since PTO or when they said I can turn it on. When I spoke with Tesla rep over the phone, they also said they couldn't see...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    Yeah they turned it on on install day before they left and it worked. I remember there was a slight humming noise. Now when it's powered on, there's no humming noise and the production on the app is zero. When I spoke to the Tesla Tech Rep over the phone, they also said they didn't see any...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    One more thing - no matter what I do, I don't hear the inverter being on with the humming noise even though the status lights are on. Is that a sign for something?

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    I got the Solar Edge 7600 inverter and the green and blue lights are solid. Sometimes all 3 lights including the red would flash. The breaker is also on the On position. When I called Tesla we power cycled 3 times before they decided to send a technician next month. My system is brand new and I...

    Issues with Tesla Solar Panel Activation

    I received my approval from PG&E Utility to turn on my solar on 10/14 and approval from Tesla to turn on my solar on 10/15. I tried turning on my inverter on 10/15 at 8:00AM but it hasn't worked. I called Tesla and we tried power cycling off/on the inverter three times with no luck and they are...
