Finding if you have new autopilot chip.

[J3ThePainless]

I just get my Model 3 standers + two weeks ago and I was wondering if there was a way to check if I have the new AP3 computer or if I have AP2 hardware. How can you check for this?

Sign up on teslafi.com, open settings page and search for Option codes. It shows Ap3.5 or 3 there. I got delivery mid March and it is 2.5

Under option_codes, are we looking for AP or APH? I see APF0, APH3, AU3P. I have no idea what this means. Thanks.

APH3 means you have the standard HW2.5 all model 3s so far have come with.

The new computer is APH4

Thanks.

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately if you do end up with HW3), the Tesla API returns invalid option codes for all Model 3s. They're all identical for all models, my SR+ option codes said it had a 75 kWh battery!

"Last week, Tesla confirmed that the new full self-driving computer is in production and vehicles delivered over the last few weeks appear to have the new computer."

Sounds like it's been no more than 3 weeks.
That puts HW3 installation around Ides of March!

Here's link to electrek article

Tesla’s new Autopilot computer is only at 5% capacity, current 2.5 at ~80%

Doesn’t it have 75kWh battery that is software restricted.

Unlikely. All the option codes were wrong (saying sport wheels when I have aero, etc.). And for an even bigger nail in the coffin for Model 3 option codes, I got an MR and LR owner to post their option codes as well and they're all identical.

Option codes are valid for S and X, but not for 3.

Nope, if it did the weight would be the same as the LR car

Don’t know where I got that idea. Thx.

Hmmm, I signed up at TeslaFi and looked for the options codes - nada, zilch. I wonder if they deleted that entry or maybe it's only available if you actually pay for a subscription?

The option codes do not mean anything on the Model 3 - all Model 3's report the same. If they removed it from TeslaFi, that's good - saves everyone some confusion.

I think the best way to know is if you have the lane change assist without confirmation. I don’t believe HW3 has that feature on the 2019.12.1.2 firmware yet.

This is correct. I was so confused when I couldn't find the lane change confirmation on autopilot menu.
