New Tesla App

[Lx2m3]

Downloaded the latest Tesla app today and found a problem.
On the Controls page the Vent command now says “Close” - implying a window has been left open.
Clicking the “Close” button causes the button to change to “Vent” (as expected) but then reverts to “Close” after 10 seconds.

Yep - getting the same.

Is it Android or Apple app?

May wait for the fix if Android

Yep I have had the problem for 3 Weeks. I am on iOS. Logged it with Tesla and they recommended this logging out of app, reset car and log back in, that worked. However it came back. It sometimes fixes it self. I also noticed that when the app is in this state and I get in the car, it sounds like the car try’s to put a window up even though they are closed.

Not quite sure where to put this, but I'll give it a go here!

I've had the Tesla app now for four years (2 cars) and try to get as much info from these forums as I can. My problem involves the venting/closing of windows via the phone app - I have Android.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but to no avail.

Has anybody any other possible solutions?

What's the actual problem? the same as the OP?
I've had no issues with the Android App, but I have noticed that when I close the windows after a vent my front passenger window falsely detects an obstacle and re opens, all other windows are closed and the app shows as the windows are closed. Not the best in a country where it can be sunny one minute and raining the next. A small amount of silicone lubricant on the seal fixed this.

@Beady3647 I don't believe that Model S allows venting of windows, or at least older ones. Not sure about 'Raven' models.

Correct, it isn't a Model S feature.

Thanks guys.

Perhaps the model S will get it in time as it's a useful feature to have in the UK climate!

We just started using cabin overheat protection, enabled by default (at least on our M3) in 2020.16.x probably due to many of its limitations being removed. It works far better than venting the windows at the expense of, on our M3 LR, less than 1%/day of battery. It keeps cabin temp below 40C in similar conditions to when we had venting on and it was regularly over 50C.

My vent/close seems to be working fine.
One good thing. The redundant Powerwall that was replaced by a new setup, has finally disappeared from the app. Only took 6 months to go!
