    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    Well when I was already planning this year or early next getting a new Model X it was a nice thing to only have to spend about $1K for a reseal, I can save the rest for a down payment or performance upgrade.

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    Yes I think I lucked out that it was able to be drained, resealed and refused. Per the tech it passed all the isolation tests and the errors cleared off.

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    This was not the 12v that went out, it was the HV pack. Water got into the fuse and caused it to pop. Tesla SC has confirmed to me today that they can reseal everything and put the new fuse in and it will be good to go. For around a tenth of the price of a refurb battery. There was one seal on...

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    Update, Tesla has completed inspecting the battery. The HV Fuse cover rusted and let water into the pack, but because it rusted my insurance will not cover it as its a mechanical defect/wear and tear. But Tesla has given me an option that they can possibly repair it for just over 1000 (mostly...

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    I guess I will see what happens, I will be gone for about 5 days in good 100+ degree days, see if it starts when I get back. Im guessing you never tried to file insurance claim, or could you not on salvaged title? I'm almost wondering if I try and see if I call it flooded as I have full...

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    It was parked in driveway would almost need a 1000 year flood to get it in standing water. I sent you over an email from your site to get more information about my options. Thanks!

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    Thanks I will look into that as well. Im in the market for a X at some point (I need towing ability), but if I can buy in a year I would rather do that. I dont supercharge too often, I only use it 2-3x per year on travel.

    Well the HV battery died per Tesla remote diagnosis, what are my options?

    I guess it happened, got a 2015 Model S that has 83k miles and went out last night to move car in the garage and it would not start. Today the 12v is flat. Per Tesla service they can't get it in for diagnosis until late next week, but from the logs it appears to be the HV battery. Of course out...

    BMS_w035 alert popped yesterday and this morning

    I have the same thing going on, did a service appointment and they have already ordered a new battery heater per the invoice. (I have no regen at the moment, its about 40 degrees out, driving does not seem to get it to warm up and come back) SC contacted me just now when I asked if it was ok to...

    Broken heated steering wheel

    Is it not working at all, or "goes out" reason I am asking, is if you Remote Start climate from the app and then get in your car the steering wheel will turn off heated mode, same with all other seats. You have to go back into climate on the car and turn it back on.

    Sorry didn't see the email from here. I got it within a week of ordering, he took a few days to build. Its heavy about 40lbs so I just opted for fedex ground.

    Slacker streaming starts halfway into song

    Yes I asked them when it was in getting the airbag recall, they said this is a known software bug that has been reported to corporate. They said nothing in the logs showed any MCU issues, when they checked on why it rebooted while sitting in the bay.

    Instrument Panel Restarting After Car Was Parked

    Mine does this from time to time, but always around same time of 11-11:30 pm. I was told there is a nightly restart of the screens if the car has been sitting. The MCU will do the same thing weekly at a different time, mine just happened to do it while I was pulling into the SC and they looked...

    Charger door adjustments?

    Thanks, yes its my model S. I was able to turn it and got it back level, it was screwed all the way down to where I could not push the port to make it open. I have an airbag recall that they are working on in a few weeks. I will have them look at the charge port too, as pressing on it does not...

    Charger door adjustments?

    I recently noticed that my charger door is closing more than it should and creates a good lip on the body lines. Is there an adjustment screw or anything that controls how far the motorized door closes?

    I plan on bringing it up with my SC when they replace my airbag under recall, I plan on showing them the video and pictures and see what they think. I just want to make sure its no the eMMC going out.

    Subwoofers anyone?!

    I am not sure how the HiFi system draws power from fuse block, does it have its own fuse or does it share the MCU? On aftermarket systems we wire directly to battery post, this helps reduce current draws on internal fused system (its wire is engineered for what the car needs not much more, not...

    Adding NVX subwoofer with UHFS

    If you are going with the NVX kit you will still need to run a power line for the amplifier. I believe there is a youtube video from them describing the process. I think the UHFS is only around 200 watts, there is an option if you search around on here to replace the 8 inch woofer with a better...

    Slacker streaming starts halfway into song

    Checked the song, it plays just fine on my car. Also strange thing is the above song in the video started working again. Though others have started. It has to be something caching local on the MCU

    Slacker streaming starts halfway into song

    From time to time there are a few songs in my owner favorites station that seem to start in the middle or the end of the song, it's always the same ones but the counter in the progress bar appears at the beginning. Does the Tesla cache the songs on some sort of internal storage that is starting...

    Subwoofers anyone?!

    I pull the power directly from the 12v battery, same as an ICE car run the power cable back, there is a grommet on the passenger side that is available. Our 12v batteries are designed to be post or thread mounted, being that mine is a D, there is the thread available for an ring terminal on top...

    custom subwoofer box in 3rd row seating storage area?

    The 12v for the Amp I took directly off the battery post(safest place), I have a dual motor so the battery is behind the frunk tub and not wedged down behind airbox like on some cars. That being said Tesla batteries are designed for both post mount power cables and the fuse tray being screwed on...

    Subwoofers anyone?!

    I have a custom box made that fits a 10 inch infinity kappa perfect in the stock space. Hid a class D (key for range) amp under the box. I also added a kill switch to the remote turn on which I hid under the trunk cover to turn off the sub for longer road trips if it starts effecting range...

    Anyone try B.A Design works speakers/sub upgrades?

    If its your first time and you're all hesitant about breaking anything. I recommend a local shop. If you are handy, it's not too hard. Key is to get a proper rated amp kit and remember your fuses. I have seen way too many docs on the web skipping the fuse at the battery or pulling power from the...

    12 when car is on?

    Other spot I used for my remote turn on for my sub was ABS fuse, use an add a fuse to get a hot lead, it turns on when you press the brake and turns off when you get out of the seat and the dash says power off. Its in the right hand side fuse box on a 15 MS with dual motors.

    Anyone try B.A Design works speakers/sub upgrades?

    I got the just 4 speakers, had standard audio in mine before. It was an instant difference, a few months ago I did add a sub a mainly because I had one laying around from an old car. (I have posted pictures in other threads of it) The added sub does give it that lower end that the standard sound...

    custom subwoofer box in 3rd row seating storage area?

    Thanks, I am beyond the years of hear me down the block, so I love how it turned out, and no loss of trunk space. I have the executive second row so the seats do not fold down. I will say its like the car was made to have a sub added, there is a grommet on the passenger side thats the perfect...

    custom subwoofer box in 3rd row seating storage area?

    Im pretty sure you do that with the resin and the cloth, possibly using some internal supports like a 1 inch doll rod that adds support in the corners, and maybe one in the middle.

    custom subwoofer box in 3rd row seating storage area?

    You can also just use MDF too since its a rectangle cutout, just seal everything really well. You still have to use MDF rings for sub support, as fiberglass alone cant hold the weight of a sub.

    Relocating Bluetooth Mic due to wind noise
