Help me figure out what my dog damaged in my MYLR

[OldPro]

Looks like maybe the front seat heater element?

Wait until he poops out the rest of the components, that should help you figure it out.

Actually, I haven't done anything yet about this issue. I'm thinking of trying to make a mobile appt, to check it out. Everything seems to work except for perhaps the seat sensor alarm for seatbelts.

Your dog is better than the mobile tech that had to take off the seat and disassemble the seats to get to that sensor, but your dog managed to pull it out without taking anything out.
Make your dog work for Tesla and you take his/her paycheck!!

Did this solve the issue of the sensor malfunctioning on your wifes m3? I am troubleshooting an intermitent issue with my occupansy sensor where at times, usually low speed and no seat belt fastened, it doesn't detect the driver in the seat and will automatically set the parking brake.

That's normal behavior if you don't have your seat belt buckled.

That is the seat occupied sensor in the Left Front Driver's seat, but may also be used for all three rear positions.
Location is glued to the top of the foam pad and underneath the top "leatherette" cover.
The dog would have to rip open the seat cover to get it. But in the back it might be easier provided he either tore the cover off or the seat was not snapped in properly.


The passenger seat uses a completely different sensor.

The rear seats may have the same sensor, I've never taken them apart to see.
Somehow the dog got into the seat cushion bottom, either driver's or rear. The rear does have a person in seat sensor as well, so it may be the same part.
I haven't studied the rear seat but I've taken the front apart many times.

I don't know what the black plastic is, the picture isn't clear enough for me to make it out.

I rebuild Tesla front seats, making them more comfortable for larger wider body profiles.

I ship to other states.
Possibly world wide.
Just started making them.
