My fan is running, it's intermittently cloudy and it's been spiking between 2.6kw and 11.6kw (sum of both inverter) due to passing clouds, the inverter is sitting in a 68f basement and the fan still run. If you open the cover in the middle of the day and find your fan is not running, I would think that's your issue

Daily reset/shutdown of my Powerwall+ and/or Inverter after coolant top-off?
- Thread starter darryllee
- Start date
My system updated midday (2:30 PM EST) to 21.31.2 yesterday. I don’t see a solar production dip in my graph today in the Tesla app but I did get some 0 values from the meter from my own local API monitoring, which may be higher resolution than what the Tesla app shows from the cloud API. I want to see how it behaves over the next few days before I consider the daily reset issue fixed.
Thank you, Bitslizer. I'll check fan during the day. If it is not running I'll contact Tesla to fix it.
There is a lever you push up to open up the inverter cover once you get the screw loose. Once its open the password is on the label there on the bottom of the SSID.
Issue was finally resolved.
I called tesla support for the issue of low power output. An agent responded and told me immediately the low performance was abnormal. She scheduled a technician visit a week later. The technician tried split the first string on inverter and found splitting does not work. After consulting with technical team in Tesla, he concluded the problem is panel wiring on the roof, and he requested the original installer to fix it. Two days later the original crew came, rewired the panels on roof, and jumpered the first string 1-2. Everything works thereafter and power output reached 6.8kw instead of 4-5kw prior to rewiring. 6.8kw is exactly what Bitslizer estimated.

I'm seeing the dropout at 7am with 22.1.1. Just got 22.9.1 installed so we'll see if the time shifts at all.

Anyone know why they do this daily check when the inverters are running instead of during off-hours?
I think it's a bug. The timing seems to be set to when the system does a software upgrade.
I completely forgot about this for several months until the latest software update made it happen again, around 7am like others are seeing.

My SW installed around 11:30am, but the 7am reset was happening before and after the latest SW install so it appears hard coded somewhere.
It was probably programmed incorrectly. At some point I stopped obsessing over it and then it just got automatically fixed. I'm sure it will get fixed this time as well and really not a material loss in production. Didn't happen to me this morning so maybe it already got fixed.

Same here. Mind boggling how Tesla can't get this right, but at the same time it has minimal impact on production, so best to just ignore for my mental health.
