2022 Model X roof sensor not working

[jboy210]

Mine just upgraded to 2023.2.0.5. No red bars, but the FWDs stop well before hitting things overhead in the garage. In fact, they seem to open a little further, but still well before hitting anything. I like this new opening behavior since it will make it easier for rear passengers to get in and out.

Update:

The red lines did not appear prior to driving the car. But after driving it they now appear. Perhaps the system needed to see no obstacles to reset.

Confirmed my upgrade to 2023.2.0.5 last night brought back the "shields" that indicate awareness of the walls and ceiling. Let's see how long it last and/or if the next update breaks this again.

I'm still on 2022.44.30.10. It's been nearly 3 weeks since the 2023.2.0.5 FW was released and 2023.2.10/11 were released in the meantime. For those with the new 2023.2.x FW, has the sensor issue re-appeared? Fingers-crossed this is finally fixed as it's the most annoying thing about owning an X if the FWD cannot sense obstacles.

With mine, the sensor "saw" the obstacles and stopped the front doors from opening into a pole and FWD from hitting the overhead garage door rail. The issue was they just did not display the red bars showing the obstacles.

With the previous 2022.x.x.x FW, did you experience the upward-facing sensor "shield" not displaying AND the FWD/Trunk not stopping? If so, this sounds like an improvement. Sensing upper obstacles and stopping is the most important thing. Visualizing it to the driver is extremely helpful, but not 100% necessary -- only necessary to give confidence the doors won't smack into something.

My FWD always stopped regardless of the display state.

Well, unless I'm mistaken, I don't recall this being the case for anyone else in this thread. For everyone here, if the sensor shield icons for the roof sensor stop working, that means the doors and trunk will open full height as if it has full clearance.

Glad I found this thread and am not alone. Just happened to me. FWD opened fully in garage and hit garage railing putting a deep scratch on top part of door. First time it ever did that in my garage. Was set to Auto. I changed it to low because i'm afraid it will do it again. Opened trunk and it opened fully too and hit garage. Set up mobile service appt to have them check. I'm on FW 2022.44.30.10.

Are you saying you drove into your garage, saw the "shield", checked the "exclude home" checkbox and the "shield" instantly disappeared? Did you uncheck the box immediately and did the "shield" re-appear?

Not instantly. It could go for a day then it’s stopped working (no shield). Once I disable “exclude home” in sentry mode, the shield come back after a day or so then it works fine for months now.

You guys still seeing this? My Sept-2022 car still does. I'm on FW 2023.7.20 with FSD Beta.

My issues pretty much went away after a week and software update. But I still occasionally notice the sensors not showing on the dash/UI. I've been logging when it happens.

Well, this explains my initial issues with my FWDs repeatedly opening into the garage wall starting the day the car was delivered back in November. The service center claimed they could not duplicate the issue, of course.

 

[ken830]

Mine still does this occasionally (once every few weeks, on average). Service can't reproduce or fix. I've been recording when it occurs, but their logs show nothing.

Is there a pattern here? What is everyone's vehicle delivery date (Mine is Sept 2022)? Could it be a batch of components causing compatibility issues/bugs?

Delivery date was early December 2022 and November 2022 build.

Mine was a Oct 2022 build. Same issue. Doors always opened ~6 inches and stopped thinking there was an object when there was not, and then it took 20 seconds of holding the override button inside the door to get it open. With two toddlers, this was quite a pain in the ass.
