    Left side of car (door handles, windows, door lights) not working

    Same thing just happened to me. First the passenger window would not operate with the drivers side window switch (but it does operate with the passenger switch). So I changed the drivers side switch assembly. No change for the passenger window operation. However, now the drivers side door...

    It's a cheapo from Depot outlet.

    Installed Nema 1450 outlet

    This is definitely the case. I would need a second charger if I wanted to take it with me. I don't drive long distance much and I've gone without it the few times Ive driven somewhat far. The superchargers are common enough that it wasn't a major concern.

    Installed Nema 1450 outlet

    I believe I have the older UMC. It believe it charges at 40 amps, but I'll have to make sure on that. I'll keep an eye on the charger to see if it's getting warm. Thanks for the heads up.

    Installed Nema 1450 outlet

    All great points. The adapter is secured to the ceiling so there is no weight on the outlet or the adapter cords. As far as the cable gauge, this was the side that the electrician was planning to run. Also, checked with the father in law who is an electrician and he said #3 wire is good. I...

    Installed Nema 1450 outlet

    I finally got it done nine months after getting the Model S. I installed 100 amp service to the garage and a 50 amp, Nema 1450 outlet to charge the car. I'm sure I'm not the first to do it, but I haven't seen it elsewhere. I installed the outlet/mobile adapter on the ceiling. This way, it's...

    Did they remove the ability to make a service appointment?

    I tried that a while ago. I also tried downloading the app on my wife's phone. Nothing works. I think Tesla has disabled service scheduling on some models. That or it's a big, but I really don't think it's a big. Maybe we will notice a trend if we all post our model and purchase history...

    Wire size for long run

    Fishing a wire through the ceiling sounds dodgy? How do you suggest I get wire from one end of my house to the other with a finished basement? By the way, the builders ran wire in the ceiling. It's not some crazy idea.

    Did they remove the ability to make a service appointment?

    I am also missing the schedule service button on my app. It's not on the website. I've even tried calling my service center, but they don't answer or return messages. This is incredibly frustrating. 2014 Model S

    Wire size for long run

    I'm guessing you have 50 amp service for this run?

    Wire size for long run

    I'm planning to run power to my garage for the nema 14-50, 240V outlets. Unfortunately for me, the breaker is on the other end of the house and my basement is completely finished. I've already fished a rope in the ceiling, so I'm ready to go with the wire. Because this is a difficult run, I...

    No service option in app

    I've logged out and back in. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. I installed the app on my wife's phone. Nothing works. No service scheduling is available to me. I'm over an hour away from the nearest service center but the only option left is to drive over there and slap someone on the...

    No service option in app

    I need some help. I need to schedule service for my 2014 model S. I went into the iPhone app and I noticed the option for service is gone from the main screen. I've seen it there in the past. What happened? To make matters worse, I've tried every option - the website, calling my service...

    Same update a few times?

    Does anyone else get the same update maybe two or three times every time a new one is released. I guess I'm not checking the version, but the notes are exactly the same.

    Door handles don't present on touch only

    Ok, so I kind of thought this might happen. It just started working again today. Who knows?

    Door handles don't present on touch only

    I did the standard reboot....hold both buttons on the steering wheel. That doesn't solve the problem. Is there another reboot?

    Door handles don't present on touch only

    2015 Tesla Model S. I ran into an issue today. My door handles all of a sudden won't present on touch. I washed the car at a self wash station, with the pressure wash. They worked when I left the wash, but they haven't worked since. I can present the handles by using the key fob so I know...

    Where can I buy Tesla bonds?

    Thanks for the explanation. That helps. Given this information, I would expect the cost of the bond to get closer to par as we get closer to the maturity date. Is that the case? Sorry to belabor the point, this is interesting though.

    Does anyone with AP1 (or pre-AP1) have got any 2019 software updates?

    I got the 12.1.1 update last night. I got all of the updates like everyone else but I also noticed I now have insane mode and insane mode+. Before the update I only had insane mode. I haven't been able to find any details on it so I don't know if insane mode+ is the same as the previous insane...

    Where can I buy Tesla bonds?

    How do you calculate the ytm? I tried looking this up and I get the following calculation. Coupon yield = 5.3% Bond price = 86.7 Assuming bond par is $100, and issue price is $100...the calculation looks like this Annual return / Current Bond price 5.3 / 86.7 = 6.11% What am I missing?

    Off topic: Carwash strategy

    I totally agree on Chicago road grime and touchless washes. Unfortunately they all recycle water and they don't filter. We're basically spraying salt water on our cars in the winter.

    Early drive unit milling noise FIX

    Just because it's later, doesn't necessarily mean it's better. Many times companies over engineer early models and then cut costs as they evolve. It's most likely some things are better and some are a little worse.

    Off topic: Carwash strategy

    The curse begins. I now have a car that I care about for the first time in 10 years. And with that comes carwashes. I have two issues that I'm wondering if anyone has some tips for. 1. Wheels. Automatic carwashes never get the rims clean of the brake dust. The best way I've found is to wash...

    “Systems Are Powering Up. Press Brake When This Message Clears

    2014 p85d here. It's happens to be outside my work all the time. Cell signal is fine. It's pretty cold here since I've had the car. It only takes about 5-10 seconds to start up but I'd prefer it to be instant like when I start from home.
