Door handle hard to open after replacement

[Cheburashka]

Got a v3 door handle installed by Tesla Service.

It's nearly impossible to actually open the door now. Pulling with regular force does nothing. I have to either pull about 20 times until it opens or push down on the door while pulling on the handle.

I did schedule another service but I'm afraid Teslas incompetence will only result in them breaking something else on my car.

Does anyone have any idea on how I can fix this?

I'm not sure how gen 3 is different from the previous versions but having replaced a couple of the older ones I can say they require a good amount of dialing in to make sure they work correctly. My guess would be that they didn't do that.

Totally possible to diy it but it is kind of an obnoxious thing to have to do.

Gen3 has a Hall effect sensor to detect the position. Not sure if there is a calibration problem or if calibration is even possible. Or the handle is bad.

Did you already tried to recalibrate it?

I didn not. Calibrate through service mode?
