Clock off by 1 hour.

[Gregwhiteshark]

I drove from Central Montana to Seattle and finished drive yesterday. My Model 3 clock is stuck on Mountain time and hasn't changed. Calendar events are an hour off as well, but navigation map is accurate. Tried rebooting... no change. Any suggestions?

Tap on the time 3 times or press and hold on the time 3 or 4 seconds and release.

The universal fix for electronic items that are out-of-whack... tap/hit them a couple of times to get them working again.

Now that the OP's question has been answered, let the fun begin...

• Don't change the clock; you'll always be early for your appointments
• Return to Central Montana and live life there
• Buy a new car and never leave Pacific Time Zone

Whacking it is like third, though, in "IT universal fixes"

1. Have you turned it off and on again?
2. Have you uninstalled and reinstalled it (if possible)?
3. Have you taken it outside and beat it with a baseball bat, A-La Office space?

(should be the "clean version")

I have never held a job in IT but I was a test engineer. So whacking things is my first fix.

The car is clearly a lemon. Contact a lawyer and start a lawsuit immediately!

I vote for percussive maintenance.

I had tried that. The first tap on the clock immediately opens my calendar in front of the clock, so it's not possible to tap 3 times...but I tried your other option; press and hold, and it immediately reset to the correct time! Thank you! Also it gave me extra gold coins in the center console.

Lawyer has been contacted and we will be starting our lawsuit in the morning. Thank you for your advice.

Baseball bat pressed to clock for 3 seconds did the trick.

Sadly, I've found being an hour early is frequently just as annoying as being an hour late. I have decided to drive back to Montana and leave this car there, then come home and buy a second Tesla for the Pacific Time zone, as you suggested. That was really excellent advice. Eventually I hope to have a Tesla in every time zone so that the clock will always be accurate.

That worked perfectly, thank you.

Curious what firmware version you’re on because, recently, that action has failed to update the clock but, instead, opens the calendar sync screen for me.

This 'off by one hour' bug happened to me back in October, bugged the hell out of me but not enough to google it for quite some time. When I finally googled it, I saw a mention of the hold-touch-clock technique and thought, 'who the hell would think to do that?'. Glad it worked though.

I'd still like to know why my car knew what the proper time was but decided to show it in a different way.

it's a sign of affection much like the shoebill, time to assert your dominance
