Tesla Winds and Elevation Web Browser App
- Thread starter SomeJoe7777
- Start date
@SomeJoe7777 I heard from the 2018.14 update thread that the new browser update removed the 30sec location service timeout. If the caulations and compass rose update are done locally, it would be nice to have the location update every second so it does lag as much.
I can’t confirm myself as I didn’t get the update yet.

I'll be more than happy to do this update, but I need the 2018.14 update myself.
Unfortunately, I'm up against a time window. My model S is leased, and is getting turned back in on 4/23. If I don't have the update by then, it's going to be a lot harder to make the change and debug it.
Are you going to get another model S?
What happens if you modify the web site today to pull location every second? Will it fail gracefully until 30 sec is up or will something bad happens?
No, keeping only the Model 3 for now. Will probably get a second Tesla in a year or so for the girlfriend, could be several scenarios: 2nd Model 3, new Model S, Model Y? New one becomes hers, or new one becomes mine and she gets my current Model 3, who knows.
I may work on the site this weekend and change the position updater interval downwards and see what happens.

When you say no data, do you mean a totally black browser window? I see that from time to time (pre-2018.14) - the fix is to make the browser full-screen and then back to half-screen. It seems the app sometimes displays on the half that isn't showing.
Yes, if it's a completely black browser window, that's a known bug in the Tesla CID, it happens to other websites as well. You can go full-screen then back to half-screen to try to fix it, or reboot the CID.

I tried this, and the app is still non functional for me. I tried rebooting the MCU as well. and no joy. Just a screen with no real data on it.
Updated to 2018.14 on Thursday.
It's not completely black browser window. I've tried rebooting and toggling full/half screen. Nothing is helping. The app used to work wonderfully as it's always on my CID. The issue might be something to do with the reported "improvements" of the browser under 2018.14. I'm attaching the screenshot.
Peter_M, is yours working under 2018.14?

OK, thanks. This indicates that one of the Javascript routines isn't running. I'll have to do some troubleshooting as soon as my car updates.

I noticed teslawinds not working properly after I was upgraded to 2018.14. I got the same screen image you did Droschke.
Then I tried to recreate the web favorite link and now I cannot get the openweathermap.org API Key to verify. I even created a new openweathermap.org API Key and still no joy.
Yes, I looked at the code today, and it appears that the method I'm using to asynchronously call the wind and elevation APIs may be broken in the new browser. The method I'm using goes through the jQuery library. I may need to update the library.
