driver settings [do driver profiles automatically switch?]

[mrdinh]

Tesla driver setting does not switch automatic? I have to switch manually from driver to driver. And the easy entry doesn't go with every driver? thanks

 

[mrdinh]

ok nevermind about the easy entry part of the question, i didn't click the check box. but still the tesla doesn't switch drivers automatically

It should switch to whichever phone key it saw first. There's also a way to set priority. Though, in a lot of people's experience, it doesn't work particularly well.

Ah, my mistake - it's priority Bluetooth device, not priority profile.

Right. You can set up each key to select a driver's profile. You can also set each profile to have a preferred Bluetooth streaming/calling device.

I think by default It will switch to the primary ph if more than one ph is listed in the account.

Hi
So most times when I get into my model 3 it starts configuring the seat to my wife's setting. I have to manually change to my setting . Why is that happening.

Check the locks (keys/phones) associated with each profile. Sounds like your phone got associated to her profile and the car thinks it's her driving. Or if you both are in the car, maybe she was the first one there and unlocked the car so the car thinks she's driving not you. Ask me how I know this ....

This happens all the time to me. Even when my wife and her phone are nowhere near the car.

Where is the setting to set a priority Bluetooth device?

Touch the Bluetooth icon to get to the paired devices screen. Then select the device you want to give priority to and there is a toggle to do that.

P.S. This is from memory, but I'm pretty sure it's correct

The UI is not obvious. Each driver profile selects its own "priority Bluetooth device" to use for audio streaming and phone calls. This association doesn't pick the profile.

Do check that the car has your phone key associated with your driver profile. This association picks the profile. Also set your phone's Tesla app to have "Battery Optimization" OFF in Android Settings ("run in background" or something on iPhone).

With 2 phones set up to pick profiles, I think the car goes with the first phone that connects by BLE (not a paired Bluetooth audio/calling connection), and not which phone is closer to the driver's seat. The only way I know to give one phone priority is to dissociate the other phone from auto-picking a driver profile.

I have the problem too, my wife is often the first to get to the car (as a passenger) and it sets to her profile when I touch the brake pedal.
It really should set the profile when someone gets into the driver’s seat! Please Elon ***

Finally sliced the issue so the iPhones have to be tied to the driver. You have to go into the profile and under the phone there is a small icon of a person select that person and will display the name the phone belongs to. And also del the easy setting till you get that assign that should work now.
