Hmmm.
Wouldn't the light bleed through at night? That would be a distraction to say the least.
I just so wish it had been caught at initial production . . . . Taking apart such a large console just begs the introduction of squeaks and scratches.

I’m going to have to set up my phone to record video and then put it in the center console to see exactly what’s going on in there…

SOLUTION FOUND!
My Tesla Ranger replaced a single micro switch in the console and the system now operates normally.
Didn’t have to replace the whole console. Took an hour or two. Woot! Thanks to those posting their progress with this!

Do tell. I have a 22 Plaid (November 21 build) with this issue.
Can you post a part number?

Mooooore details. Pleeeeease. You’ll be helping so many! Part number would be useful from the invoice.

Welp, they looked at it today… and pronounced it was normal.
After agreeing it was weird, they checked another car on the lot, and when it acted the same, they decided it was just how it’s supposed to be. Never mind that I referred them to this thread and identified this problem as one that affects many cars built over a certain period. By that logic, I guess huge panel gaps and terrible weather stripping must be normal…
Which is exactly the response I got to the other issue I brought it in for. Apparently weather stripping that looks like this is normal too. On a $130K car.

Well, my rubber seal by the TESLA plates on the sills are up exactly like yours. You can take a hairdryer and warm it back into position, or put a little glue underneath it to stick it down. They're wrong about the center console, of course...

That's garbage. I was in an Uber today, some generic SUV and it had window and door seals that just worked! Imagine that.Welp, they looked at it today… and pronounced it was normal.

Really? Just because they are all broken doesn't mean mine isn't broken.I sent them the video again and told them that replacing the microswitch solves the issue. They said they will try to get it in today.

Ok. Strange that replacing the switch solves the issue. So, they have a stock of the old parts that work but the new parts going into the new cars are all bad?
