that's rough, dude.
Tony fixed mine. I installed it earlier this wee, and so far so good.

I would (nicely) push Tesla to consider this under warranty, especially given how common this has become. Also, if you were having ANY symptoms prior to 3 weeks ago, it would help your case.

Sold my 2016 S75... Did a factory reset before new owner drove the car 7hrs back home. Then new owner text me pic below hours later. I never had this happen the whole time I owned the car.
Anyone had this happen to them before after factory reset? Is this a sign that MCU failing?... It won't go away even after a few reboots.

Any of the other signs listed in 1st post? All the information is consolidated there. 2016 ones are often failing now. They can schedule an appointment and wait a few weeks or more, or we can help them in as little as a few hours.
Upgrading with a flakey eMMC has a high chance the mcu will black during the upgrade, leaving the car in a mismatched state and needed an additional redeployment to fix it once the mcu is repaired or replaced.

I recall some time last year my mcu rebooting on its own. But I thought that was just because of an update. Also my wife told me once she had to reboot the mcu because the screen was frozen. That was also some time ago, not sure when. Besides those couple things, the MCU has been working consistent for the past 4 years. But the car is still under the extended warranty. Advised the new owner to take it in.

I am getting multicolored lines at top and bottom like that. Went away with a reboot a couple weeks ago, now back yesterday.
I have had mcu issues too, last few weeks. Contacting Tesla after I compile notes and pix this weekend. In warranty till May.
May 2017 facelift S.

Thanks. Since the car is in this brutal limp mode, I'm going to have it towed to the SC on Monday. Also, since I didn't update the FW before the VPN change deadline in May, it won't even give me the option to do a FW update. The SC will have to do that. I'm hoping that between the eMMC failing and the FW not being updated since 2019.32.2.2, that that is the source of the 'power reduced' errors.

Did I read this correctly - they provide a 64GB updated Tegraboard?. If that's the case I'm going to have Tesla do the swap....
Should I ask if I can upgrade to mcu2 and get a discount on my under warranty mcu1?

if the cell tower isn't blown over or burning, and the battery isn't dying, and I haven't agreed to the multi page EULA of the app or you have to watch ads, .
A radio is receive only, doesn't send where you are, what shirts you wear or what you are up to.
The stream on the stations I did did not put EAS over the stream. I'm sure a listener in Germany doesn't need to duck and cover for a tornado alert here.
P.S. I tried reading the "privacy policy" of weatherbug. good luck
P.P.S. At least give a phone plug input to the audio system with the mcu2 upgrade.
Ideally access to the not used diversity antennas so you run a radio of your choice from a cup holder. That would be more involved than Space X technology, I guess.

All true, but your Tesla already violates your privacy, it has a GPS, a microphone, multiple cameras and knows where you go, when you go and how fast you went going there.
I would just grab a cheap handheld radio like any of these Your Complete NOAA Weather Radio Guide

In my mind if you have a car that is out of warranty there is at least one advantage to keeping the MCU1, third party support. WK057 doesn't like messing with MCU2 yet, so if you want him to upgrade a pack then you might be limited or prevented if you have MCU2. I am not thinking this is a permanent thing, but something to keep in mind for the near future. MCU2 is obviously the future, but something to consider at least in the short term.
Just wanted to add my +1 to the EV Fixme satisfied customer count.
Had my eMMC replaced late last month as the SC had indicated my board was near end of life(2700 writes out of 3000). Just completed a near-800 mile trip with no hiccups.
thanks, Tony!

My appointment for daughterboard replacement is this morning. I went out to try to drive to the SC, but the car won't start. In the past, when I had this issue, I would reset the MCU (which I recognize is already black) by holding both scroll wheels, get in and out of the car and when I'd press the brake again, it would say "please wait for systems to power up." I couldn't get it to do that again this morning.
I tried a number of things (hard reset with brake, IC reset, etc) to no avail and just called for Roadside Assistance to come pick the thing up.
Really frustrating.
EDIT: I was quoted $350 for a tow so I went ahead and tried a 12V reset. That worked and I’m about to head over now. In case anyone else has the same issue.
