Boombox

[ckozely]

Yea, you just need to make sure your USB has a different partition for music. With the music partition, create a folder called Boombox and dump in your custom mp3. It works for me.

Make sure the partition is FAT or FAT32

So if I'm reading all of this correctly - to change the forward-driving PWS, you use the Driving Sounds function which comes out of both the external speaker and the internals, and doesn't shut off at 19 mph.....? (Haven't messed around with adding any customer sounds yet)

One other thing I noticed is if you want to play music through the speaker with the BoomBox feature while, say washing your car or just having no one in it, you can turn on Camp mode in the heating options.

Given boombox is available and you can now use custom sounds for your horn, what have you changed yours to?

I've seen some people do fart sounds, but does anyone have any better ideas?

Thanks!

Do you mean an actual horn sound, like when you need to honk to an idiot, or sounds to play with, like the farts and 'La Cucaracha'? For horn noise, I'd make it more European, so higher pitched. For play, it'd be nice to add a believable V8 engine noise, just to see people's faces. Or a jet engine sound. Ha ha. By the way, how do you program those sounds? Curious what you do. Keep us posted.

They need to license it, and make it an official option.

Can't seem to get the custom sounds to show up. Using Flash drive Exfat on Mac- doesn't allow partition. Tried new folder name- nothing.

Anyone?

I believe it is exfat32. Then partition the drive into 2 sections. One labled TeslaCam and the other Boombox. Then put a folder labeled Boombox in that partion. Then you can save up to 5 sounds in the folder, but the file names can't have any spaces in them. That is what was causing me trouble. Once i took the spaces out they showed up fine. If you still have problems go to Youtube there are dozens of how to videos. The exfat32 and the spaces in the file name were my stumbling blocks.

That's the ringtone on my phone for my wife!!!

(I stole the idea from another friend of mine).

Here's a few boombox sounds I added: Login - Dropbox

At least for me, the "replace horn" selection doesn't stick. Everytime I shift to Drive/Reverse and back to Park, it's becomes un-selected. It might be a safety thing? The main horn sound on/off selection sticks.

To summarize:
Horn sound on = Regular horn + custom sound (together at the same time)
Replace horn = only custom sound.

The boombox option to play Songs is cool. But I don't know how to keep it on. If I close the driver door, the car shuts down and turns off the Media playback?

I’ve recently paid to have the boom box retrofitted to my 2020 model Y. Apart from them quoting me one price (in writing) then charging me another on the day. All seems well, apart from…

sometimes, the setting keep defaulting back to:
Horn sound - Fart
Driving sound - Current Media (but deselected)
summon - Current Media.

Anyone else experienced this?

I think it resets to the defaults after every drive.

 

[MY1501]

Mine gets reset too every time. Kind of annoying. Is that a bug or normal?

 

[Imagine]

It resets everytime. I think it's normal. Also, is there no way to adjust the output volume? At least for me, the boombox is insanely loud when heard from the outside. Inside, it's kind of hard to tell.
