    2015 85D Won't Turn On

    Meh, you are probably fine in reality. There is a known problem with older Model S with the design of the old HV fuse. Basically, the old one is just a regular old fuse, and over time from flooring the beans pedal, and other factors, the fuse starts to loose its fuse links, and eventually, the...

    Log into toolbox, then u gotta change the network adapter on your pc to have a ip address of 192.160.90.124, and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. then plug ur cable into the car and pc and hit connect. If you got any questions, just hit me up, I have worked with toolbox extensively.

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    Yup, just confirmed it, s and x up to 2020 pack replacement just involves a re-deploy.

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    The bms is in the pack. The bms is aware of the condition of the pack, but the main computer doesn't. The HV pack procedure forces the main computer to relearn/recalibrate this. Same thing with 3/y car will not run till u run the hv pack relearn/replacement procedure.

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    Ok, when doing pack replacement, there are special plugs that you can use to prevent draining the entire car of coolant. Bc if you just unplug the coolant lines, coolant may drain out of the DI, aka you gotta vacuum fill it, and bleeding the cooling system will take more time, and you risk...

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    Also, doing a pack replacement properly requires a lot of special tools.

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    Ok, for tesla 3 and y, doing a re-deploy after pack replacement will cause major problems (Learned that the hard way on my own car). DO NOT DO A RE-DEPLOY on model 3 and y. Pack replacement is a seperate procedure.

    Can I replace my M3 HV Battery with one with a different Part number?

    Hey, If you want, you can pm me the vin number of the car, and i can look up compatible hv packs for you. I have my ways of getting info. Tesla is super finicky about the various revision numbers, especially with electrical components.

    All you had to do was clear post crash load shed on VCFront. You didn't have to replace it.

    My fourth, and final, door handle has died

    You can do a rebuild on the door handles. Its actually a relatively simple procedure, and parts are pretty cheap. I did this job for a couple of my friends, and its really easy. Hit me up if you want me to do it for ya.

    Does installing a hitch void your M3 warranty?

    Just for a bit of context here. I run a small garage servicing these cars in the gta, and have access to tesla factory service info. Speaking purely from a technical point of view, it is impossible for a hitch install to cause battery damage if it is a well-designed hitch. This is because, in a...

    2020 Salvaged Model S won't go into drive/reverse or charge when on

    Alright, so here is how I would go about tackling this issue. Do a visual inspection of all of the wiring that is in the area of the accident. It is possible that some kind of wire got cut/shorted or something. If it looks ok, finish all of the damage repair, and do a updated reading of all of...

    2021 MY - Passenger and 3rd Brake Lights are out. What's the correct procedure for a full 12V reset?

    So ya did almost everything correctly. except, you should disconnect the 12v battery before the main hv battery. I'm pretty sure the car throws a bunch of error codes if you disconnect the hv pack first. Also, you can disconnect the pack from one of 2 spots. One of them is the chonky connector...

    2020 Salvaged Model S won't go into drive/reverse or charge when on

    Hey, first of all, you are an idiot buying a salvage car. Im joking here. They can be great cars even if they have a salvage title, u just gotta know what to do when you repair them. I am wondering if you have a copy of toolbox/service manuals? Also, do you mind sending a few pictures of the...

    Model 3 Windshield replacement service

    I have had incredibly good experiences with a company called Cooksville Auto Glass and Airbags. They do a lot of contracted glass work for collision centers. When I got my windshield replaced, they asked me if I wanted an OEM or aftermarket windshield. I chose OEM, and they had a windshield from...
