Hi -5 yr Tesla driver, northern climates. Went out this morning to unplug the 2020 model Y, and the screen was in some sort of panic mode...charger maps zipping all over the pace.. with the cabin heat at 70F. (was 6F outside). Had been blowing heat all night like that. First time occurrence. No changes in bluetooth app settings, cabin heat protections, etc.. Soft reset seemed to work. Any opinions on what the issue was? Any similar experiences? thanks in advance,
Did you accidentally leave the phone or the key card in the Tesla? Normally when you open the driver's door the HVAC will shut down. Is it possible someone touched the HVAC controls and set the climate control to be On after exit?
I'm experiencing the car frequently not going to 'off' when exiting and closing the driver's door, opened a service request. Screen stays on, showing all doors closed. I'm now in the habit of checking this every time I exit the vehicle. Patch is to open and close the driver's door again, that usually works, very occasionally needs a few retries.
If I remember correctly, for the car to sleep, you need to power off on the screen if you want to force it.
@frankvb , I get this sometimes as well. It seems to happen when I move my car in my driveway without putting on my seatbelt, or when stopping for the mail and driving the remaining 300ft to my parking without my seatbelt. (I know, I should put it on for that second case...). I think the car has trouble figuring out that you're done driving when you don't buckle up. There might be other cases but that is definitely one. I haven't done a service request yet because I was gathering evidence first. It's easy to see when it happens as the driving lights stay on in that case (DRL, in Canada).
The tech that came and replaced the door latch, mentioned that the aftermarket puddle light may cause this. I swapped the light with another door to see if that makes a difference. Hasn't re-occurred yet, but sometimes it worked ok for a few days.
