You can do that on the app easily. Tesla charges 350 for the module and installation. Not sure how much it is on eBay but it is 350 if you buy it with Tesla. Might as well opt for installation since Mobile Tech can do it in your driveway or garage!
There are a lot of variables here. What was your software version when you did the install? Most of us having issues are on recent builds. So the general feeling is this got broken/blocked around Feb timeframe. Or maybe only certain cars are seeing it and others are fine. Clearly something has changed.
But why? Its 350 for a trouble free install by a certified Tesla Tech in your home that they can doin 15 minutes. Why try to mess it up ? Some things just don't make sense.
Ebay is selling a used module for 325. Why would I pay 325 and DIY it when I can get it done for 350 for a new module in my garage at aconvenient time I want?
Not sure where you are looking but I got the brand new OEM module with bracket and the nut for $165. It took me less than 10 min to install (free). If that had worked (as it was supposed to as per so many YouTube videos) we wouldn’t be having this thread discussion. If Tesla had not blocked the registration then this was a simple plug and play. But now, in light of these issues most folks won’t be doing it anymore. That is why I started this thread to warn others of Tesla shenanigans.
Seen a few for 165 ish but the compatible years states 2021 or below. Not sure the new HW4 would be compatible or not. The new module has memory for 3 doors whereas the old one had room for four!
Have any Teslas ever supported 4 doors? Maybe the old S/X? I don't know if 3/Y ever allowed more than three regardless of module.
Here is the I bought for MY23 and it is working fine:
Yea... that won't sell. They're waiting for someone to "make an offer".
My 2017 MS had HomeLink that was already installed when I picked it up. Pretty sure it supported 4 doors. I sold the car before I bought MY.
HW4 May be a bit different with AMD Ryzen CPU/MCU. The HomeLink install may be not as straight forward as there was a lot of confusion even at the time of taking delivery. As I mentioned in my previous posts, I had 3 different versions of installation before I left the service center and 2 different versions coming directly from Tesla after I booked the appointment. I just did not want to risk anything. I mean 250 DIY vs 350 Mobile Tech doing it for me in my house. I would choose Mobile Tech any day!
That works but little odd in a highly tech oriented car carrying around 2-3 clickers! Here you are cruising down the highway in EAP/FSD and come to your home and start clickety click instead of the car doing it automatically for you. Would look really embarrassing if you have a date and trying hard to impress about the tech prowess!
Its only one clicker per car. Its too irrelevant to display any tech prowess. You bust your ass in the gym but lazy enough to lift a finger? Good luck impressing a date with that.
Yeah! if you have one garage door to open. I have a gate and 2 separate garage doors which means I have to stick 3 clickers on my shade! Definitely not a pretty sight in a Tesla. My jeep has HomeLink built in but I have to lift my finger to press the right button! Still looks better than lining up all those clickers on the shade!
This is what I was afraid of about buying modules off ebay. They are usually removed rom a damaged car and seldom completely new.
