Did the seatbelt restraint go off? I had to send mine to get repaired as Tesla wouldn’t sell me one.

Honestly stop crying about it. I had my trunk quarter and bumper painted blue. Unauthorized body shop cracked my glass when trying to align my rear glass. Being honest I cracked it too trying to align it. Just get it replaced. So much easier.

I ended up repairing/bypassing the fuse and everything is good. Car runs and charges. I’ll be buying a new fuse that has the explosive cap. I basically brazed the fuse back together and left the exploded cap as is.

So I disconnected the high volt battery and I didn’t hear the clunk of the contractors so I have a feeling the main fuse blew which explains the no charging of the 12v and the red tesla icon at the charge port and blue light on wall charger (3rd gen) I thought I’d share how I took the high...

If the car wasn’t in an accident or something it might be a drive unit issue from what I've read. Definitely get it checked out and hopefully you’re under warranty.

It did not charge when I got the car. I have a wall charger and when I hooked it up there was a red tesla light and wouldn’t charge. Then the wall charger had a blue light.

I’ve been reading around and the bms and vcfront seem to be associated with a drive motor issue. Which sounds very expensive. I started taking the battery module apart to see if I can find anything wrong.

So I ended up purchasing the car and it was dead when I got it. Nothing tuned on. I hooked up another car battery using jumper wires and this was the message. Along with some BMS VCFRONT AND HVP Vehicle may not restart. The other 12v battery died and the car shut off again so I basically have...

Nice! What is the minimum height the jacks have to be to get the wheels off the ground? Looks like you have 5 2x4’s so 7.5 inches?

I had to remove the tensioner from the seatbelt and will share how I went about doing so. This is a bit destructive. I downloaded the Atlas of the tool and printed it but it was just too flimsy to push down the plastic retainer and the metal retainer clip. This would work if you made it out of...

It’s an auction site for salvage or junk cars. They basically take some pics and it’s pretty hard to get more info unless you go see the car prior to auction. The car is far from me so I can’t go see it.

I don’t think coverage is an issue since I get cell service on different phones. I’ve driven the car and same issue. I have a service appointment with tesla weeks out. Couldn’t get anything sooner. I did call tesla and they said they couldn’t do anything over the air and suggested it might be...

Is there a list of status messages similar to this for warning messages. https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modely/en_us/GUID-80B80D48-E3A9-4857-864B-F4CC9B56FD7E.html It’s on an auction site do they don’t have better pictures.

Do as in what?

I’m thinking of buying this model 3 2020 and it has this warning message. Can anyone make it out or know what it might be? I can’t ask the seller unfortunately. Thought maybe someone might know here

What features would I look for? When it’s not on wifi nothing seems to work. The maps or traffic don’t work. I have reset the car many times. Does anyone know if the wifi and wireless internet (not sure what it’s called) are the same or are there two antenas? I believe they are located in the...

I bought it from a private party. I can only view maps or live traffic or anything that requires data when the car is connected to my home wifi or when it is tethered to my phones hot spot.

So I bought a 2017 model 3 and it has enhanced autopilot and premium connectivity included in package. The enhanced autopilot works but I can never get data to work other than it being near wifi or a hotspot. I tried looking to see if I had to get some type of subscription but doesn’t look...

You provide tesla the bill of sale and transfer of ownership documents and they add it to your account. All settings get erased. Yeah wheel Dollies are the backup plan.

Does anybody know if you can put a model 3 into tow mode even though it has a pin to start? There is a car for sale at auction that has a pin to start but the auction house does not have a pin. So without the 4 digit pin to start the car can you place it into tow mode?

So I will be replacing the quarter window on my model 3 but when I took off the window I damaged a clip that holds the interior trim piece. I searched through the Tesla catalog and haven’t been able to find it. I looked through many clips on eBay and haven’t found something similar. Does...
