Door locking problem solved.
Service Tech came down first thing this morning, pulled a fuse, popped it back and did a flash update for the specific module. Spent longer testing everything worked than in actually doing the fix. Thorough work much appreciated. Big thumbs up to Aaron from Tampa Service.
No idea why this fault occurred on my car but it doesn't seem to be a general issue.
Now, I'm off for a drive..... :smile:

For my usecase, the way it is now would be preferable because most of the chargers around me are pay per time. If they were in use, I'd be paying to sit idle. Probably shouldn't sit plugged in unless you're going to charge. Is there a reason you'd want to delay charging when you're at a chargepoint station?
In San Francisco, most chargers are free because they are in public garages. There are a lot of EV owners here as well as visitors. If I am looking for a place to charge, I open up the Chargepoint or PlugShare apps to see what is available. I would not like to go into a garage where the app says a station is available, but in fact it is being occupied. I believe that if a car is plugged-in and occupying an EV space, then the owner should be charged.

Since the charge timer is location aware why would you set a time if you were at a Chargpoint station? It would be bad EV etiquette to have your car parked at a public charge station plugged in and not charging.
If I came up to a Chargepoint charger that is not charging (but plugged in, as often occurs with Volts and PlugInPrius'), I believe it is totally within EV etiquette to unplug and charge your own car (their car is done charging).
Also, the Chargepoint charger needs your RFID card to start charging; I doubt it will start charging when the timer starts.
Solution: no timers at public stations.

I totally agree with you. This was just an experiment because of Tesla's previous software versions where it would send a "plug-out" signal to the Chargepoint station when charging was complete.
I arrived at my garage at 6:55am this morning and set a delay charge for 7:10am. At 7am I plugged in the Chargepoint cable. I was monitoring the Chargepoint app for that station through 7:10am. The Chargepoint station showed-up as available up until 7:10am and then it changed to "in-use". I verified that the charging started from the Tesla app.
I agree that timers should not be set at public stations, but I'm sure tons of people do it.

Side Mirror settings in Firmware 4.3
I just noticed that my side view mirrors do not change (anymore) when I go in reverse. I figured the 4.3 update reset my settings and tried setting them but it did not seem to take.
Is anyone else having this issue with 4.3? Is there a setting I need to change?

I went into settings and turned my reverse mirror tilt back on, but I don't see any movement either.

The memory probably reset. Put the car in reverse and adjust the mirrors again. That will restore the setting.

TSLA will win
Wasn't it also necessary (at least in an older version) to change something else, additionally, to get the "save" dialog?

In San Diego, I just set it to 2am, and it will always be off peak, even in the strange crossover times. In the very rare occasions that that would leave me without a full charge in the morning, I can always start it manually.
