    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    The only breakers over 20A are the oven and Tesla wall adaptor. Furnace and water heater are gas. The tech did that too and it still failed. L2 just won’t listen.

    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    Even with the the breaker from the Tesla subpanel to the house breaker panel turned off, the gateway still reported a surge. That is why he thinks the Gateway needs to be replaced.

    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    I have two PW2 and a gateway 1 which were Installed 5 years ago. They do time shifting just fine but they don’t take over in a power failure and I cannot go off grid. Tesla says there is a power surge and to get it fixed by an electrician. The house pulls 1.7-4 kW most of the time but a lot...

    Charge By Solar Not Showing

    Ditto. It was enabled, but I wanted to do a precondition today and it told me I needed to disable it. I did and it's gone forever.

    CCS slower than molasses?

    Only 1 plug in use. Tesla ran diagnostics and says that my battery was at 20 degrees and suggested that I precondition next time. I was navigating to a supercharger for 30 minutes and the car says I was preconditioning, so not sure what’s really going on.

    CCS slower than molasses?

    the screenshot showed it started at under 32%

    CCS slower than molasses?

    My charger at home takes about 2 hours to go from 30%-88%. My math could be way wrong.

    CCS slower than molasses?

    My 2020 MY AWD LR says it supports CCS. There is a nearby Mercedes dealer with free Chargepoint CCS chargers @ 62 kW. I have tried it 3 times using the CCS adaptor from Tesla. The last two times I set my 2020 MY to go to a Supercharger to pre-condition the battery. No matter what, the car...

    Not charging in cold?

    No. I used the lithium app as a beta tester. Probably a mistake.

    Not charging in cold?

    I hit the same today. Tried free supercharging at 65 degrees and the car went from 50-52% over 25 minutes. I gave up.

    PWs do time shifting, but cannot backup?

    I turned of the single “house panel” breaker at the main panel just after the gateway and no change.

    PWs do time shifting, but cannot backup?

    I believe my gateway only has one hole — at least that I could see. Can you attach a photo?

    PWs do time shifting, but cannot backup?

    Tesla has been jerking me around for over two months now and I wonder how to escalate. I have 2xPW with a very early Gateway 1 - it doesn't have a reset button. Scenario: I am near San Francisco with moderate weather. My home averages 1.2kW and never goes over 4 kW. I enabled time-shifting...

    2 Tesla Solar Installs on same roof?

    I put 2 PW on an existing solar installation using a Sunny Boy inverter that supports 3 strings but only had one string running. I added more panels on a second string. The app is handling everything under one Tesla ID. I guess the question for Tesla is whether their inverter can handle multiple...

    As everyone says, it’s luck of the draw. I kinda played dumb - where’s the button?

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Mobile ranger came out to change my cabin filters. I asked him how often I needed to change the HEPA filter, and how to enable bio mode. He could not find the button so he called a more senior ranger. Senior asked if there was a HEPA installed. Junior popped the frunk and said yes. Senior tried...

    GPS issue since the past few weeks

    I am going to guess that Tesla knows that this is a problem but won’t admit it. I think rhe latest software does some kind of diagnostic check and turns off the cabin camera if it is causing problems.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    RZX 8” Rivet NUT Gun https://a.co/2soRyCA Metric tap bolts, Stainless steel 18-8 (A-2), 5mm x 0.8mm x 40mm - Bolt Depot and appropriate washers. I couldn’t figure out how to accurately drill the locator holes so I hacksawed the locator tabs off and filed them flat. Took 20 minutes all in.

    Hi there. I can’t find the BWM button for my HEPA filter. The filter seems to working but no button.

    I assumed this. But how exactly do you get accurate marks? The locators are under the unit.

    How did you line up the filter and mark the mounting point to drill in the right place? Step by step for this guy.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    My 2020 doesn't have the locater holes. Has anyone else faced this and what did you do about it? Drill holes (how to get the correct location) or cut off the nubs? Also, how do you remove the old "air scoop?" I don't want to pull too hard.

    FSD Beta 10.69

    First there was a .0 then a .1 and now this is 1.1. Wonder if we’ll see 1.1.1?

    FSD Beta 10.69

    ROFL - they added another digit - 10.69.1.1 since Elon promised 10.69.2 would be the rollout. Saw it on teslascope but not on my car.

    GPS issue since the past few weeks

    Not new firmware - I enabled AP and apparently it turned it back on. Camera interference with GPS is a known issue on some vehicles.

    Aw rats. I started turning on AP features and now my GPS is crazy so apparently I must have enabled the camera cabin again.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Not really. They are 6mm hex head (not Torx) bolts from the factory but I don’t know what size socket you need. If your car doesn’t have the captive nuts then you need to use rivet nuts which reduces the bolt size to M5x20 and who knows what head people are buying.

    GPS issue since the past few weeks

    My GPS was stable on a 100 mile r/t drive, but I got a lot more “hands on wheel” dings. So am guessing that I got the back end fix (see the other thread quotes above). Yaaay!

    2022 Apple CarPlay update vs Tesla UI

    I believe the issue with CarPlay is that your customers become Apple's customers - and Elon is not willing to give them that kind of control. Perhaps there is behind the scenes talk to put CarPlay in a window but Apple wants your map data desperately, so Elon would have to give up navigation...

    GPS issue since the past few weeks

    The service team available through the app says they won’t escalate my issue and keep pushing back my appointment due to lack of parts. Now a month since I could use AP or navigation — not to mention FSD. I am not happy - and I opened a NHTSA ticket. But I am really ticked off that I am driving...

    Powerwall are battery backup, not a UPS. I am a Business continuity/IT disaster recovery professional. The difference between a backup power supply (battery, diesel generator, rotational) and a UPS is that in a true UPS, all power flows through it at all times. The UPS is not only...
