Tesla colorizer not working on 2014 Model S

[Nicowillot]

Hi guys,
This could look a bit silly as not an essential car feature, but does anyone knows if Colorizer is working on 2014 pre AP cars ? I just got an MCU2 upgrade and car illustration color is not matching anymore on some screens of the user interface.
I was hoping to solve this with the new colorizer feature but this is not appearing after the 2022.20.5 upgrade.

Thanks,
Nico.

It's working for me fine on 2022. 20.6 on my 2017 S

Hey Nathan, can you change the wheel configuration on your car? If you change your wheels to say "21' silver Arachnids" does the change reflect on the Tesla app and the vehicle render on the MCU after it finishes with all the reboots?

I just got the MCU2 on my 2014 - And wheel configuration is there under 2022.20.6, but colorizer is not. There's nothing above my car's name on that screen or in the toybox. Actually as far as toybox, there's nothing different from MCU1. I'd still have done the upgrade (even losing the XM radio) b/c the screens are nicer and definitely performing faster. But I wish there was more options / data in the navigation to be closer to either Google or Waze.

The toys, meh.

It also feels like the radio volume is reduced from where it had been with MCU1? I find myself setting it around 8 where previously 5/6 was good on the highway.

The color of my car is dark blue (PMMB) as @Vinc 's Model S.

Has anyone been able to come up with a definitive solution to the issue cited in this thread? I just picked up my car after the MCU2 upgrade

Software 2022.20.6

I'm sure the solution - if any - will come in a future update.

I have a 2014 model S as well. Literally just installed the latest update at 5:35 PM on Wednesday, July 27. Still no colorizer function under software or toybox. As with some of you, I have a dark blue Tesla and for the last three or four updates, I sometimes see the bright blue that’s the new color and sometimes see the dark blue, my original. Like others have said, it’s not a big deal it’s just annoying for $100,000 luxury vehicle, considering this car is 50% or more computer, it shouldn’t be a problem . And like others have said, I could just change the color altogether with this new feature but why is this new feature not available on older Teslas? I did upgrade to MCU2

Just updated, no fix. I wonder if this new update was to allow original owners to use it Or was it just to fix an issue for the new Tesla owners

 

[Huachipato]

I just installed the 2022.20.7 update myself and just like @Trauma911 I still don't see the feature either. It's not atypical though - I would still think it will show up in a future update (I have no clue which one).

Anyone with a refresh 2016 with MCU2 and on 2022.20.7? I'd like to know if the colorizer feature worked. I have the .6 and doesn't show up.

 

[Art VandeIay]

Still no colorizer function.

Not saying you guys are not looking in the correct place, but it took me a while to figure out where to find it:

From what we can tell, the colorizer feature needs firmware version 2022.20.6 or newer, and it's located, not within the Toy Box or the Games/Entertainment section, but in Controls→ Software→ Little square above the vehicle's name:

When did you upgrade your Plaid to MCU2? . Of course yours with the MCU3 will have it...

2016 refresh with AP1 and MCU2, just installed 2022.20.7. No colorizer at all - not above the name (I pressed all around just in case it was not visible) and not in the toy box.

Not there. I just see my car in the recent bright blue color “Sad face emoji”. I upgraded the MCU to MCU2 to get cool updates, now we’re left out again. Reminds me of Apple, the older the phone, the less you get to do.

2015 MS 70D AP1 with MCU2 upgrade. No sign of colorizer anywhere in spite of that feature being listed in both 2022.20.6 and today's 2022.20.7 release notes.

 

[Art VandeIay]

When did you upgrade your Plaid to MCU2?

Unfortunately not my Model X , just a random picture I found on the Internet for illustration purposes...

I have the refreshed 2016 mcu2 and the .7 has not fixed it.

 

[StoicKiwi]

Just FYI, I had issues with the wheel config on .6 and once upgraded to .7, and it's working now. Still no colorizer though :/

 

[Rascoe]

2016 refresh with AP1 and MCU2, just installed 2022.20.7. No colorizer at all - not above the name (I pressed all around just in case it was not visible) and not in the toy box.

FYI - Just installed 2022.20.08 - still no colorizer, although it is listed in the release notes.

 

[Droschke]

Changing my car's color, for no apparent reason, from the very dark blue color (PMMB) which I love, on the left, to a super bright one, on the right which I don't like at all, needs to be fixed. I don't have to be given a colorization tool to do it.

 

[mrj25]

Tesla needs to get this fixed as they mentioned it should be working in that build. Is there a link where to report the bug?

Not sure about a link, but if your voice command is working try "Bug Report" and report the issue.

I've not used this feature in a very long time since my voice command wasn't working.
