Hey Guys,
Wondering if I can get some help on this forum. I've had my Model 3 LR for about 2 months. I noticed about 2 weeks into ownership that it was draining about 1 mile per hour of battery life when it's parked in ambient temperatures. I turned off cabin overheat protection, rebooted the car, removed the widget on my iPhone, and even turned off the AC before leaving the car. Nothing seemed to help and I averaged about 20-25 miles lost per day.
I only noticed near the beginning when I got the car that when I opened the app it said "Waking Up"...I have not seen it since. The car is simply not sleeping at all despite all efforts. I used TeslaFi for 2 days to verify if it was going to sleep (with sleep settings on) and then I removed the API key, changed my Tesla account password, and deleted by TeslaFi account. 1-2 weeks later and still experiencing the significant drain.
I brought my Model 3 into service and it seems like the Tesla engineers are having trouble diagnosing the problem. I told them that I think it's because the car isn't sleeping and if they find the reason it's not sleeping then it should solve the vampire drain. I recommended checking the battery management system bootloader and checking any sensors that might be keeping the car from sleeping. It's been over a week and still no luck.
TL;DR: Car won't sleep. Tesla engineers are having trouble diagnosis it. Any tips?
Thanks!
