There is no Tesla part number, seems done by an oem that des these actutors for multiple car manufacturers.
Waiting for the Aliexpress vendor to confirm the part is staying in his store for others to be ordered. Will post the link as soon as I get this from him (probably tonight).

RCCM = remote climate control module.., active aero is I think always there when something with THC, presSns will be some presure sensor probably..All of them are new, or..?
No, it was there earlier I just forgot to post it.
I did a short SuC session earlier and battery temp rised to 42 when the cooling kicked in and worked fine.
A fellow model S parked in next spot and as soon as the owner plugges the car, louvers would open. Mine were shut closed.
I do remember reading here that the central one is for the battery/powertrain and sides are for A/C. Maybe thats why the battery temps are fine…but also the cabin A/C works fine…just the radiator fans can be quite loud on heavy load

Got the confirmation he has stock and orders can be placed. As a note, my order is in shipping, have not yet received it to confirm all is good.
This is the option for the actuators (pair):

Why ‘Radar’?
Also, lower down the description specifically says without actuators/motors - is this why you had to request those separately?

Because Aliexpress, I guess
He sent me a pic of the actuators…hope it’s what I’ll get

Guys, I will try hopefully today downgrade my sw version so I'll be then able to use the old Toolbox 2.1 and diag the louvers . Will inform you about the progress
@ResHacker Looking forward it!
update:
Did a test SuC today where temps of cells raised above 40 and cooling kicked in. Side louvers closed, but seems with no effect on the batt colling as the a/c kicked in and I saw ~1.5kw power usage for cooling.
Found a usefull site: Thermal Management
Very informative, this part:
11. AC condenser. Required to cool down refrigerant. Does have a fan. Fan speed indicated in percents. There are two condensers each having a 12V fan. Are between fog lights and front wheel arches. Air enters through louvers and exits to the wheel arc. Louvers can be closed for better drag coefficient.
So left/right louvers are for condensers for cooling down refrigerant, my situation seems safe for battery and I currently have no reason to not drive/SuC the car.
Does anybody know what is the "safe" temperature for the refrigerant, I've seen temps go up to over 100 when I tested cabin cooling and A/C really kicked in hard - usage was 2.4kw.
I am going throw scematics now to locate the RCCA module as I plan to check wiring, maybe something is loose, then do a F22 reset as stated in the manual when replacing the side louvers - interesting there is no "disconnect 12V battery" when doing so...

Well, I believe the AC is working and it's powerful enough for battery+interior cooling but as the side louvers are closed the fans have to run at full speed which is otherwise not necessary.
And to my progress, I was able to run the update but after the fw file is downloaded the progress bar jumps back to +-50% and is stucked there.. Have asked the guy who has invented this downgrade process Hoped it would be easier though...
Ok, try the F22 reset, I'm curious..

Ok, so got next update, downgrade finished thanks to Vegar's support, so I'm now on 2022.8.10.5. Now I will contact the Tollbox guy and have it installed. And in the meanwhile, while my IC is out of the dash, I'll try to clean the bubbles out
F22 did not help for me. As soon as I plugged it back, errors are back.
But battery temp while SuC at outside temp of 36 was under control and did not raise above 45. TMS was working at 6kw at peak power…wow.
Looking forward your results/readings with toolbox…
Ps, RCCM is somewhere “inside” the dash, pia to reach…

My Aliexpress order has been shipped and I got a picture of the content. Waiting for delivery across the world to confirm everything is legit.
