    Soft-close frunk mod?

    So no adjustments once you set it up and configure the settings. As for it stop closing if you put pressure or force against it - Yes it stops at whatever position it’s at. As for accidentally opening while driving. Whatever safety option that Tesla put in place remains. This unit doesn’t...

    Soft-close frunk mod?

    Total install time took me about ~2.5hrs. I’m a stickler for doing a clean install so I spent a lot of time taping up the wires, cutting it down as it was too long and resoldering the connections etc. as far as brand of motor I did not see any markings. I didn’t take a lot of detailed pics...

    Soft-close frunk mod?

    I bought a kit and it’s completely custom for the S. Everything is plug and play, no need to cut or splice wires and 100% reversible. Part of the kit includes motorized actuators and as for the soft close latch, they made a custom bracket that adds onto the existing latch where you would...

    New soft closing door kit for Model S

    You could buy the kit and just install the softclose motor. The hood actuator is optional if you don't want it - they are independent. The soft close motor seems to be universal in a sense that you replace the spring and add on the latch mechanism. Hope this helps.

    Hey All - I bought the soft close and frunk kit from TeslaOffer. I received my order within 5 business days and I live in Ca. I’m glad I paid extra to buy the kit from TeslaOffer as I ran into issues and Warren was very prompt in addressing my problems and replacing a defective soft close...

    HW3 FSD firmware issues + HDMI switcher + Front Camera

    Yup - I also have the ALP installed on the front bumper and they charged me $97.50 in labor b/c they said I have aftermarket components installed so they had to find another way to remove the front bumper to get to the condensor which was under warranty - total BS considering that it's 3...

    HW3 FSD firmware issues + HDMI switcher + Front Camera

    Hey everyone - wanted to give the community a heads up on potential HW3 FSD issues if you have the front camera and hdmi switcher kit. I have a 2018 100D w/ MCU2 and AP2.5 I dropped my car off to a service center on Tuesday to have them check the condenser fan since it was making a high pitch...

    Hi All - I received the V10 update 2 days ago for my 2018 S100D MCU2/AP2.5 The enhance summon feature has stopped working for me and the error that I keep getting is: An error has occurred interpreting camera data. If not that, then the 2nd error message is making sure doors are all closed and...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    Thank You! I saw this as well but wasn’t 100% sure if this is the newer version where the camera quality is better then 1st Gen. There’s quite a few going for $150+ I originally bought my first camera from Kdday back in November and camera still works but the glass is cracked from a rock chip.

    New FSD details

    This really sucks... like they are purposely trying to alienate and piss off current owners... EAP was $5k... FSD was $3k and owners like myself who purchased in Nov/Dec 18 time frame FSD was removed and there wasn’t any options to prepay or purchase in advanced... Now they did a bait and...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    Are you using only the front camera switcher? Or do you have bearbu’s hdmi kit as well? There’s enough room to the top right to wedge Artsci’s box, I tried and it worked for me. If you manage to pair the remote - please document how you did yours... I still haven’t been able to successfully...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    thanks for the tips and tricks. is there a difference between rebooting vs complete shutdown? Rebooting = hold both scroll button down until system restarts Shutdown = in MCU menu powering down? Is this it?

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    Thanks for sharing your experience - as of right now - i have it working and am working directly w/ Adam to update the firmware and move the Menu button to the left scroll wheel so there's no overlap between functionality between Adam's kit and BearBu's; As for the front camera, it's working...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    Ok I tried both remotes, pressed the learn button, LED lit up red. Then I pressed the D button (tried it on both remotes) nothing happened. The LED was still on, and then it turned off by itself. I thought it was paired and pressed the D button again and nothing happened, no red lights flashed...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    So I’ve ran into another issue... The camera did switch between R & D when I was testing it out, but when driving the camera would not switch to the rear camera, when I held the menu button it would switch to the HDMI. When I stopped and parked the car, it was showing the Front Camera and...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    So I did what you suggested and the system automatically switches to Front camera when in drive and Rear Camera when reverse. I was able to also add on BearBu’s kit and everything seems to be working except pairing the remote. I bought the battery and tried to pair the remote, but I don’t seem...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    Ok - let me try this when I get home later. Can you show me how to reprogram it like yours where holding the menu button triggers the HDMI and scroll wheel triggers the switch between the front camera? The reality of me switching back and forth while driving is slim, but having that...

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    No I wasn’t planning on using a remote at all. The panda led is blinking red and blue. As of right now I’ve removed bearbu’s kit and am just trying to get artsci’s kit and yours to work first. Now I’m not seeing the rear video feed at all - I’ve also done a reset on the MCU as well and no...

    Parts the Tesla Model S Shares With Other Cars

    if someone figures out which self closing door latch will be plug and play w/ the Model S please share. I'd love to do this swap and mod. This video shows that the latch used is probably from another car as no modification was added in terms of an aftermarket self closing latch.

    So...who's buying the "enhanced anti-theft" accessory?

    I actually did try this and the alarm did go off... which made me question if it's multiple technology going on... I didnt get a chance to tape up the sensors yet to see if it could possible be a motion sensor instead...

    So...who's buying the "enhanced anti-theft" accessory?

    I initially thought it was a motion sensor... I think I’ll try taping up the 2 holes and then try to set it off by doing what you did to see if the alarm goes off

    So...who's buying the "enhanced anti-theft" accessory?

    This was explained by the Tesla rep who installed it in my car. So if it’s not correct then it’s misinformation that was given I questioned why there is a lag between when he put his arm in the car and when the horn goes off. He explained that the fluctuation in cabin pressure when the window...

    So...who's buying the "enhanced anti-theft" accessory?

    Just had mine installed today. For those of you wondering how it works... basically it monitors the cabin pressure when a window breaks and the inside cabin pressure changes the alarm gets triggered. This explains why the alarm and climate control can’t operate at the same time.

    So...who's buying the "enhanced anti-theft" accessory?

    I didn’t buy this as a way to prevent break ins - I bought it to receive notification if and when some jacka$$ decides to break my windows... My windows are tinted 5% all around so it’s not like a thief could make any decision and judgement if I have any valuable items, I also have 2 child...

Talked to Tesla and they said it has to be installed at service center and can’t be done via mobile tech. Does anyone have any experience with mobile...

    Howto Access Tesla Diagnostic Port behind Infotainment

    Howto Access Tesla Diagnostic Port behind Infotainment

    @appleguru would this be another area where we can tap into the OBD port? Bearbu's kit is currently using up the OBD connector on the driver's side, I'd rather not add on another OBD adapter if there is another available port.

    Ultimate MCU Mods - Combining HDMI Input + Front Camera Kit

    you only have 2 options either find the trigger signal from the trunk and run a wire from the back all the way to the front or purchase appleguru's kit which makes the installation way easier by not having to run that line and splicing into the original harness.

    2nd run of camera switch that show a front image on the touch screen

    @appleguru and @BearBu I think I’ve finally wrapped my head how I could possible use your kit with bearbu and artsci, seeing that your kit plugs into the OBD port as well as bearbu’s, this means the only way to integrate is to connect your OBD onto bearbu’s kit. Will there be any way where...
