Ground light on bottom of door

[norm]

Norm, I thought you have the Logo lights for Model S. If yes, How can I order four of them?

I can make some up, 65.00 for set of 4 with my special mounting plates. Will take about 2 weeks, I have been busy making the cubby drawers and let the lights slide. Send me a PM if you want me to make a set

Thanks / Norm

I am in contact with the supplier and he stated he will replace the light. Still holding...

Received the replacement light (not the entire assembly) and so far so good.

Finally got around to installing my 4 custom puddle projectors.
I have a 2014 P85Dl non-pup
The fronts were really easy. Took apart the old puddle lamp and drilled out the lens to fit the new projector. Took me a while to get it just right with fitment.

The rears since I don't have pup I just drilled out the holes. Then use the dremel to widen them a bit. And the just screwed in snuggly with no need for a mounting plate.
Now I will say that I did remove all 4 door panels. Once I got the hang of it, it took me less then 5 minutes per door to take off and reinstall. I also used positaps for all connections as to keep the original connectors there.

I do have one issue. My passenger rear puddle shuts off way earlier then the other 3. Any ideas?

Those look great. If you can, I would swap the passenger rear to the driver rear and vice versa to see if that's the cause.
Does it follow the light, or the connection to the car?
Could be a bad light or going bad.

It can't hurt to do a reboot and see if it still happens.
Press and Hold both scroll wheels until main screen goes dark.
Press and Hold both buttons above the scroll wheels until dash goes dark.
These two procedures reset both systems.

There's one more. Little known.
Sit in the driver seat and hold your foot on the brake pedal through the scroll wheel reboot.
Its a deeper reboot than the normal reboot.

Now that you told me this, I will do it but I'll always wonder while doing it if you're secretly laughing at me and I don't know if I could blame you given my own warped sense of humour that finds it funny.

Seriously. Its true.

It's the door. Swapped lights as seen in the pic. Driver door is on while rear passenger is not. I will try a reboot first.

 

[Brewcitpizza]

It is still shutting off prematurely. Right a 60 seconds. While all the others stay on.

The red light stays on longer though. Could I just tap that? Or is this worth a service appointment?

In one recent thread, (It might have been earlier in this thread) there was a brief discussion that there are two similar connectors in the rear doors. One works for the puddle lights and the other - someone concluded, must have been for the PUP interior lights. On one side the two cables/connectors were swapped so even though the wire was taken from the same unused tied point, they were actually for different purposes. Could this be the case - sounds like it with your situation?

 

[Brewcitpizza]

That was it!!! Didn't even see the other one lol.
Now my question in where does the other one connect to for pup? Is that something I can add?

My '17 has a row of LED under the armrest in the doors. Maybe that's what they are for?
