Homelink disappearing / GPS freezing
- Thread starter f308gt4
- Start date
Dropped mine off first thing this morning, so will see what happens. Hopefully will be a quick fix.
Fwiw, they gave me a loaner S with the Yoke steering wheel (I have the regular wheel ). Very interesting. I do like that there isn’t any blockage of the dash, but it does feel a little more awkward to me than the regular steering wheel. I think I made the right choice for me by getting the regular steering wheel.

hopefully that fix works. i had opened a service ticket for my gps being inaccurate sometimes.
the worst part was when it was accurate, i'd park at home and it'd be fine. but when i check it a few hours later, the GPS randomly jumped to some location i previously drove by, even though it had been parked in my garage.
while waiting for my mobile service, i decided to clear out and uninstall the Tesla app and reinstall. unsure why, but that fixed all my GPS issues

I picked up the car. First thing I did was open up the service menu and check the cameras. Everything was green under the GNSS menu, so that’s good. Drove the car home, homelink worked as it’s supposed to and parked in the garage. After a few minutes, I checked the service menu again and got the Orange icons under GNSS, which is to be expected since the car was in garage. Took the car out, drove around the block, and when I checked again in the driveway, everything was green.
So it looks like it’s fixed, which also fixed the home link issue I was having when starting this thread. Hopefully this is my final update with this issue. I’ll post again if something does come up.
I hope everyone else that posted in here with issues gets them resolved, and please update us when it happens.

Glad to hear that it is fixed for you!
Mine has still been working correctly. I’ve been trying to make lots of small trips, and periodically checking the service menu- I am getting satellite reception so it appears that it was just the antenna in my case. Have you checked your service menu? I get something like this now:
My car has been absolutely perfect since it's been home. They reached out to check on it. They were happy that there was a new part number for the car computer that they installed. Hope yours is as good as mine!
Well, mine was working well for about 2 weeks until yesterday. Now the GPS is completely frozen again. Have tried resetting several times and made a few trips, but it remains frozen. Sigh.
Took screen shots of the frozen screen + service menu indicating that there are zero satellites and no GNSS fix and sent to Tesla service. Have an appointment with the service center at the end of next week. Wish me luck.
How did your service appointment go?

Oof, that’s terrible. Do you have lemon laws in your part of the world? Or some other recourse? If you replaced the antenna and the computer, I don’t know what else would fix it.

I'd like to draw your attention to two separate issues I have had recently, see links to my entries:
1. GPS problems

2. HomeLink MyQ problems

I'm not sure these are similar to what you have experienced, but it is food for the thought.
1. GPS problems
Navigation/GPS not working on brand new Model Y
Picked up my new Model Y yesterday. Noticed when I got in the time was incorrect and the car thought it was at Tesla HQ (2500 Deer Park). The team at the delivery centre advised me this should fix itself when I start driving, but over a day later and after driving 100 miles it's still not...

2. HomeLink MyQ problems
MyQ cellphone App home screen disappeared
After several years of using MyQ cellphone App, the Home screen disappeared yesterday for no apparent reason. In fact it disappeared from our two cellphones. While the garage door opener through my Tesla works properly without any problems, and the History screen on both cellphones records all...

Thanks for the links.
I think my Homelink issue was related to GPS. Once the antenna was replaced, for the ~2 weeks that the GPS worked, the Homelink worked perfectly. Now GPS is frozen again, and thinks I’m somewhere else when I get home. So Homelink icon doesn’t come up. Going back to the service center on Thursday.
