I bought this Tesla Model S 85 few months back. Was scraped on the left hand side, no airbags deployed, no error messages.
I drove it home and charged fine. Took it at the end of September to a body shop for repair. They were quite busy and the car sat for ages. About 10 days ago they called and said they need to move the car but shows 0 miles and will not drive.
I ordered a 3 pin plug charger and went there. Started to charge fine. Probably they only left it for few miles range. Called me again days later that it shows again 0 miles, and will not start. The charge port will not open. We had a fully charge 12v battery connected to the car. Opened manually the charge port, also had to unlock it manually from inside the trunk, plugged in the charger, says starting to charge, but few seconds after said charging complete, but still 0 miles. Took it home on a recovery truck
Tried with my home wall charger but same results.
I'm guessing the main battery voltage is too low. How do I put some volts in?
