Correct, that's why I was saying that the module not supply 14v as expected is due to it being an open e-fuse, and you have to unplug the component and depower/repower the car to property diagnose. Two scroll wheel reboot isn't enough to reset the e-fuse, so it will look like the wiring or...

@FatFalcon yep, for the last 3 or 4 software updates it’s been that way, thought it was a bug. When you get in the car the lights don’t flash for unlock, but when you start driving away they do. I still have the car all apart in my garage I’m going to try to get a headlight tomorrow and then put...

For anyone who finds this in the future: I removed the cover for the VC Front module, and tested the headlight wiring back to the multi-pin connector where it plugs into the module. The wiring was good. Then I determined that possibly there was an E-fuse in the module that was not resetting so I...

2018 (late 2018 build LR AWD), I figured out that the Gen 3.1 is just the newer version, the EPC doesn’t distinguish between the old and new VC Front clearly, but what I have is the original style with the battery +/- cables right on lugs on the front of it. I’m going to pull it out so I can...

I've been having a couple weird issues- the hazard lights flash when I start driving away, for example- however the new thing tonight is that the driver's headlight is out, which is making the wipers erratic. Perfect. I checked the plug at the headlight, the passenger side has 14.5v on the...

Yes they do actually flash.. if I unlock it with the key card they flash immediately, it's just the phone as key makes it delay the unlock flash.

I just did the update to 2024.2.3 but I've had this issue for about a month (I think about 3 updates ago). When I leave the car, it flashes the lights once when it locks- as normal. When I arrive at the car and open the door using phone as a key, it makes the pleasant "ding ding" sound but the...

Reverse psychology- crazy enough it just might work!

Buzzing is normal, it’s the pump functioning and the way that it generates heat, the uneven sound of the pump sounds like air being sucked into the pump to me.

My 2018 M3 LR AWD just turned 100k miles, the oil pump is making a strange sound from the rear DU when it’s preconditioning on cold days (coldest we’ve had is 25˚F so far this year) I don’t remember it making that much noise or uneven noise last year. I’m not in a great spot to spend the...

Which software version are you on?

I ended up just doing a fairly thorough vacuum fill and then supercharging and checking the level during the process when the pumps were running at 100%.. I talked to a SC tech later who claims that when you start the drain/fill procedure in service mode, it runs for like 30 min in the...

thanks for coming back to let future folks know the answer to your problem!

Trying to add a new (used) car to my account. It’s at a dealer, it’s been released from the previous owner, I submitted the paperwork but I’m also 1500mi away- I wanted to add it before I got there to be sure I’d be able to supercharge on the trip home (and possibly make an appointment at the...

It's hard to say, but I did just replace my airwave (panel vent) actuator because it was being erratic. It could be that the blend motor is doing the same thing, and when you call for more than 68º temp, it is just closing down which is faulting the PTC.. the parts are fairly cheap because the...

emptyspaces posted a new question on the marketplace listing Model 3 Stealth Hitch.

Thanks for this, unfortunately not for my vehicle, I have a 2018 Model 3 Dual Motor.. I sprayed the car all over for 30 min with a strong stream of water and it never leaked.. I’m not sure where to go with it..

Yes I’m going to try that tomorrow..

I have a 2018 Model 3 LR Dual Motor- I used to get a few drips through the passenger side felt liner, where the vent holes are on the underside of the inside of the trunk.. not a big deal, I have a rubber liner. However, after a very dry summer, today started our rainy season and I opened the...

Hello, I recently removed and replaced my 2018 Model 3’s radiator, and in attempting to follow the service manual procedure, tried to use the service mode>thermal actions> ”start thermal fill/drain” as well as “start coolant fill/drain. Both of them gave errors that “they could not run, and to...

You’re on the right track, before doing any more powering up/attending to move, I would be depowering- and making HV safe, then removing modules and plugs and inspecting for water ingress. Anything with water in it is likely not going to be able to be saved at this point- the mineral deposits in...

It's only been a few days of being out of the bluetooth handsfree desert (2.12>6.1) and now this! Up to date! I even went in and refreshed the update page this morning and had nothing, and got in my car after work at 8P tonight and had the orange arrow.

Nope, just a bump to 2023.6.11, but happy to report the calls I had to make on the way in to work this morning were safe, legal and without echo! Not sure why it took so long to just get bug fixes, considering my bugs have been pretty bad.. but here we are.

Finally out of 2.12 echo hell.. good luck to those still stuck there, ugh.

Finally getting out of 2.12 echo hell.. good luck to the rest of you still stuck there.. ugh

Fair enough, glad it's prepped itself, but I'm still driving around holding my phone in my hand..

I'm still driving around holding my phone.. it would be nice if we could roll back to a previous SW version.. I don't even want the new features I just *need* handsfree calling to work

I'd even be happy with the ability to roll back to a previous version of the firmware.. it's one of the only electronic things I've ever owned that I'm now powerless to fix, cause I can't downgrade or upgrade at will.

There's another thread of similar complaints, folks 'stuck' on 2.12.. I'm not normally champing at the bit, but my bluetooth calling has an unusable echo/feedback effect on 2.12, and my display randomly freezes/restarts when driving, so it's a particularly buggy version to be stuck with for as...

Still holding my phone to make calls every drive..

I did finally get the nav update overnight last night, but that's it, nothing available otherwise..

Follow up: the nav update was nearly done but I had to run back to work, so when I got here it connected to the WiFi and continued downloading, just went out and it’s on the same version as it was previously and has no available/pending/downloading update lol

I was so excited when I saw the orange arrow.. they’re just teasing me with nav updates 😭

Contact your closest service center and ask the parts counter to mail you the parts.. it's possible to do it here in the states, not sure what the policy is elsewhere.

That won't do anything, it's based off when the update is released from Tesla for my vehicle VIN, no amount of rebooting/resetting will change that.

Had the mobile service tech here and begged for him to push an update but he said he can only push what the system specs for the car- said it's spec'd at 2.12.. sweeeeet. Hoping for tonight!

Also I believe it enables the seatbelt pretensioning updates that use Vision.. so worthwhile for safety improvements... also if Single Stack comes to EAP/AP, I think it would only come to HW3..

Yes, I know, and I have to do it almost every drive, it's annoying to have to keep doing every time I get in the car and put it in reverse..

Generally I agree with you. However, I drive 1.5-3hrs per day, and using hands free bluetooth calling is something I've been able to do for years without much fuss on many makes and models, heck I had an aftermarket stereo in a 1995 Passat that did it, and it's illegal to talk on the phone...

Jealous.. Still on 2.12, still driving around holding my phone on speakerphone..

I was told they don't align it after the FUCA replacement.. but the service manual seems to require it, so..

Not I. Still on 2023.2.12, and my Bluetooth echo still makes hands-free phone use impossible, also having a very frustrating exchange or lack thereof with my local Tesla SC for the first time (new guy maybe?), so all and all, not real thrilled with my car right now.

I’m never really in a rush to update, except when there’s a major bug/ glitch.. having 3 Co workers in my car going to lunch, when it freezes trying to load the backup cams, crashes, and re boots playing a death metal song I’ve never heard at maximum volume, while also being frozen and unable up...

I'm in the same boat, don't know if it has anything to do with it but I had FSD subscription and cancelled/let it lapse in January, now I'm sitting here on 2023.2.12 which is fine, except I've had an issue with Bluetooth call echo the entire time, so my handsfree calling is basically useless. I...

They're awful. The first time I ordered the hub/wireless charger, said they'd ship in a week or two which was fine because it was April and I was going on a trip in June.. Nothing ever arrived after a few weeks and I ended up emailing them, they kept saying next week until it was June and I...

No it's a section of the reverse light strip that is actually red

I think that photo might be from the UK or Australia..

No, this one :)

No, should be on any, including Model Y/X/S.. it's just not enabled in the US, but the factory wiring diagram shows it's there and it's marked on the back of the lamp..
