For the past couple of months, for most of the time, my Model S has displayed the messages 'Vehicle Systems Over Temperature' and 'Charging Unavailable'. By rebooting and power downs, sometimes multiple times, and repeatedly pressing 'Open Charge Port' I am sometimes able to trick the car into opening the charge port. If this opens I am then able to get the car to charge without problem at home or at superchargers.
On the only occasion I have manually opened the charge port (not through software) it has showed a red light and will not charge. Sometimes I have failed to get the car to open the port and charge, only to come back the next morning or even several days later and find it will charge.
The car has spent the last 5 days at the Tesla Service Centre in Leeds, where a failure in the 12V supply to the HV Junction Box, leading to the temperature sensor reporting a default reading of 150 degrees, was diagnosed, together with a fault on one of the boards which prevented them loading firmware. They replaced the HVJB and managed to reformat the problem chip.
The car was fine on the drive home from Tesla but the next morning was back to the same error messages and refusing to charge without 25 minutes of rebooting and power downs. Any ideas for ending my nightmare ?
