Climate Fan Constantly Running

[ABC4EXPLORE]

CLIMATE FAN CONSTANTLY RUNNING

Upon exiting the vehicle, all climate is turned off, no cabin overheat protection is turned on, no 3rd party apps, sentry mode is disabled, EVERYTHING is disabled & OFF & NOTHING is telling the MODEL Y to keep the climate fan running, yet the fan continues to run for hours, even after exiting the vehicle, any ideas? No the car is not too hot or too cold, it doesn’t matter the temperature inside or outside the car or the environment, it happens ALL THE TIME! This has been happening for over two years, ever since I picked up the car, TESLA support has zero ideas on how to fix it and has offered zero help; it’s very frustrating…

Its probably the routine to keep the cabin filters from getting moldy.

If the fan only runs for a while after you have used the car, that is normal behavior. The car wants to dry the evaporator to prevent mildew and bad odors. IF on the other hand the AC unit (or heat pump) works, if your center screen stays on, if music continues to play, then you have another problem. In that situation the car typically thinks you're still sitting in the car and it is often a seat sensor that is unplugged or bad.

Did you find the reason for this and got a resolution? I got 2023 Model Y yesterday and facing the same issue.

I turn off the climate control in mine when I hear the fans running it usually works.
Also have Cabin overheat set to off most of the time and no AC when not.

The fan will run for a while after you park the car. This is normal. If it's running all night though, you have a problem.

If you turn of the climate it turns off the fan.

I am having the same problem with my 2018 Model 3P. It just recently started over the past month or so. Interior climate randomly turns on after parked and cools down the interior of the car to the set interior temp. Would love to know the solution to this problem.

Try turning off the climate system by highlighting the temp till it turns gray.
Also turn to manual rather than auto in the climate system .

And you've never set a Precondition Schedule and left it enabled?

 

[Teslinator]

I am not sure of your reference to a "Precondition Schedule". Where would you make such a schedule? The acts of the ac coming on are totally random and do not appear to be set to any schedule.

There is rarely a reason to use Manual climate in a Tesla. Set it to Auto and forget it. If the fan runs, the fan runs. The car wants it to run for some reason - let it.
