Hi,
I have a 2014 Model S 85 am trying to retrofit Homelink. Early Model S in Australia did not include Homelink, but later cars did.
I asked Tesla for a quote to supply and install the correct module, but they said no. So, I bought and installed a used Homelink module on eBay and tried to book a service for them to enable it, and they also said no. I thought it was my car, but apparently Tesla thinks they still own it?
I've done a little Googling and my current understanding is that the Homelink option is not 'protected', so I just need to modify my car's config to enable it. Here are some more details:
* My car has had the MCU2 retrofit installed, and is running the latest firmware.
* I can get into service mode using the 'service' key word in the car's menus.
* I have a FakraHSD to Ethernet cable.
* I'm quite IT savvy so a few quick pointers should get me on the right track.
If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd be incredibly appreciative.
Thanks in advance!
Bonus question - Prior to the MCU2 retrofit, I had AM+FM radio. As part of the MCU2 retrofit, I added the optional tuner upgrade and now have FM only. Is there a DIY upgrade path to FM+DAB? I was a little surprised that the $700 tuner option didn't include DAB to match the newer cars.
