I have two buttons behind the screen along the bottom edge. One of them fell off shortly after initial installation. I think I just cleaned the surface and the adhesive pad and pressed harder to stick it back on. For a while I also would press the button along its rim to try to increase adhesion every time I get into the car. All 8 of my buttons have stayed on without issue for months now.
I think the included "nano suction" adhesive pads are just fine. It just may take a little time and patience to get them to stick. As I've mentioned, mine has been in place for months without falling off, and I had re-positioned a couple of them from the front of the car to the backseat area. Wiping the nano suction pads clean with alcohol wipe seems to do the trick. If you can't get them to stick on for whatever reason, there's always 3M automotive tape that should make them stick on.
You don't necessarily need to wipe them with alcohol pad for the first install. They recommend doing that when you're re-positioning the buttons or if they have trouble sticking.
With the AP button behind the left spoke, I can execute a lane change and re-engage AP with my left hand in one smooth motion. Someone earlier in this thread described this and I tried it and loved it.
I have 8. That’s the maximum number of buttons supported, I think.
I got one of the two button packs (my initial purchase was a 6-pack) and it came with white and red bezels.
They were a limited edition last Christmas. We will add separate Red bezels to the website next year as an add-on.
The Commander is using Bluetooth (BLE) for the Buttons and S3XY Buttons App communication because the interface between them is proprietary and optimized for high speed, low latency, and big data rate.
Since we normally don't use Wi-Fi, I wish we could selectively turn it off or on from the app.
You can easily turn it off from Commander Settings, just toggle ScanMyTesla Support to off.
Thank you, that was easy and worked!
