    Wrong location on GPS and not able to do a soft reset, should I be concerned?

    Thanks, that is good advice on preemptively changing out the 12v battery. Mine is similar to yours - 4 year LR RWD w/ 30K miles.

    Wrong location on GPS and not able to do a soft reset, should I be concerned?

    So I am starting to see more of this; my car sits in a garage and now almost on a daily basis when I head out (or the days I head out) - I see the GPS off - its not miles off but a few streets. When driving in a few mins it locks on and corrects itself. I have had the car for 4 years and not...

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    I am not sure if this is the right thread (90 pages - phew!). I have been running TM (TeslaMate) for a while, and I finally go around to posting instructions on how to get this up and running on Azure in a Ubuntu VM. This has been one of the instances how I have ran it for some time now and I...

    Open Source Teslalogger on Raspberry / Docker with ScanMyTesla integration

    Any benefits on this over TeslaMate? I don't use ScanMyTesla - and seems both forked from the same base, looking at the repo, I can't see anything that stands out (outside of ScanMyTesla).

    Tesla now using deep neural net for auto wipers (2019.40)

    So, is this a new update rolling out now or invite only?

    tesla-apiscraper: Yet another selfhosted Teslog/Teslafi alternative

    I was using APIScaper earlier and was having a lot of issues - and eventually discovered TeslaMate (adriankumpf/teslamate) and moved over to that - and couldn't be happier. Fundamentally same thing, but I think the community around this is more responsive and lots of activity (which is good). I...

    Tesla API and battery data.

    There is quite a bit you can do, here is an example of some of the stuff I have been geeking out with the API: .tesla – Amit Bahree's (useless?) insight!

    And personally the Easter eggs presented by the toy box menu don't count. It's too easy.

    Anyone still rocking a Pi Zero W smart drive for TeslaCam on Sentry Mode?

    Just be aware that the Pi4 doesnt work with the TeslaUSB image (quite yet) and you would need to go thru the manual process to set this up.

    12.1.2 improved Stereo?

    I couldn't tell any difference - but then I am not an audiophile. I also haven't had any issues with my speakers, and with 12.1.2 - they sound as good as they did before. :)

    Sentry Keeper- free Windows software to manage your Sentry videos

    I am intrigued - what and how are you using the raspberry pi? This seems interesting but not sure if I follow. Thanks. :)

    Sentry Keeper- free Windows software to manage your Sentry videos

    Thanks, I understand that - being a geek I get it and also get the other side when one is trying to do something passionate and help the community, then some random dude online (that is me), starts complaining. :) I would love to check it out but honestly too keen to run this and rather look at...

    Sentry Keeper- free Windows software to manage your Sentry videos

    I am a little vary to download just an exe and run it - are you thinking of open sourcing the code, that perhaps some of us might want to pull and build locally?

    Issue with rear window when defroster on

    Thanks - personally for me getting the glass fixed (i.e. replaced) is more important rather than the iridescent aspect of it.

    Issue with rear window when defroster on

    I find it funny the explanations some others have shared. Anyways, I have the same thing and it turns out the glass is defective and the service center has ordered a new one to replace it - now that was also 2-3 months ago and still waiting. I did check in with them a couple of weeks ago and...

    This Can't be good... screen issues with 2019.8.4

    I had a similar issue in the past - took it to the service center, they thought a firmware update would fix it, but that didn't - turns out the screen had to be replaced.

    Tire Repair Kit

    I posted this in another thread and sharing here. I was looking at the Modern Spare Mode 3 complete kit. I have 19" wheels and had pinged them to find out if this will work and got their response below. I don't know enough to comment and would appreciate some guidance and thoughts on those who...

    My "No Spare Tire" Kit

    So I was looking at the Modern Spare kit, and I had reached out to them asking if this will work with 19" and sharing their response below. I know enough to know that I don't know enough and would appreciate feedback/guidance for the folks here. I have always changed tires using a scissor jack...

    Spare Tire Option?

    I don't know enough on this and am learning - the Tesla kit comes with one - would that be good enough (without using the goo thing) - any ideas? Thanks.

    Spare Tire Option?

    In theory this works awesome, in reality it is a crap-shoot. Depends on your location, and where you are etc. I also had a flat this weekend - discovered it on Sat when going out for lunch. Called Tesla Service, was on hold ~30 mins and then they said, ah someone will call back with...

    Puddle Lights

    Me too and had accidentally ordered extra ones. They took it back without any problems. Awesome quality and awesome service. A little different than others. Highly recommend them.

    Tesla DashCam on V9

    Also I see a lot of folks having large capacity drives and am curious on why more than 32 gb? FAT32 cant address more than that in any case, so getting anything bigger just seems a waste of money. Or am I missing something?

    Any way to keep high beams on?

    Our house is on a quiet street, that finishes in a dead end and it is quiet and fairly dark. Auto high beam, for some reason never switch to high beam on our street and now with fall here, it gets dark quite early (and of course will get dark even earlier). Other than manually pulling on the...

    Software Update 2018.39.x (Version 9)

    Just got the update this morning. Not driven it yet. I saw a thread either here or on reditt on the calendar view - that it was showing up for some and not for others. I found this option that I hadn't seen shared before. The question I have - has anyone been able to see their calendar details...

    version 9 poll

    Still waiting, and the car is with the SC for some work (that list is growing unfortunately) and they said they can't push it out and don't have the ability. I find that a little odd, but I have to believe what they say.

    Triple App Screen on v9!

    Obvious features/functions that weren't obvious to you

    Blinkers do work during reboot. It might not seem like as you don't hear the ticking sound (the system is rebooting), but the actual blinkers are working. You can step out and check or at night see the reflection.

    Display issues with model 3

    Yes seems something hardware related. My initial reaction was a loose cable - something got loose somehow. If it was a software thing it would go away on a reboot.

    Display issues with model 3

    So started having a issue with the display where I get lines across the screen. Have seen these cover the complete screen or the bottom. Also noticed them flicker in and out. Started since this morning and have had them multiple times. A reboot sometimes fixes it but not always. I have a...

    Software Update 2018.39.x (Version 9)

    On the update I have also seen that in the past when the SC updates the BMs firmware, I got the same set of push notifications but the ver in the car and the app doesn't show the BMS details. My guess is some of what you are seeing might be that.

    Obvious features/functions that weren't obvious to you

    Quick clarification on this - when I click on the T, I get the screen that shows the car config and the VIN and miles, etc and then it pops down for the eater eggs. Where is the "E" that you are refereeing to? Thanks.

    Mine contribution - favorites that you can save in the nav and have a whole list. This is different from the work or home and the most recent used.

    Sleep and Unlock API Question.

    Sharing my experience - Yes, I have seen that. The only way I have worked around this, is to check if the car is asleep then kick off a async call after a few seconds latency. And I make the same API call again - the first one just wakes up the car and it doesnt seem to 'remember' the first call.

    Setting up your own Model 3 “keyfob”

    There isn't any correlation between this and driving the car. If you have your paired phone with you then sure. I personally have the key card in the wallet as a backup. Phones fail and crap happens.

    Setting up your own Model 3 “keyfob”

    I was surprised on how seeing how much interest my previous post on my Model 3 "keyfob" got. And going with that a lot of requests on folks could get this setup for themselves. For that, I finally got around to publishing step by step directions on they could how to get this - check it out -...
