Unable to login Youtube

[Mr. Big]

Thanks to those who came up with the solution! I was having the same issue but it's all good now.

I also had this problem. Used the Plex.tv workaround (luckily my Plex account is not my gmail), and everything works now.

Thanks!

Tesla SSO – Login To contact Tesla for minor issues/questions. If you have a more major issue you can schedule service through the Tesla app. For my YouTube question I received a reply that was no help from Tesla approximately a week later, so the support here on the forums was a lot more helpful.

Thank you!

Same problem. Created account on medium and signed in, then I was signed in on the youtube app.

Thanks, the Plex thing worked for me also.

I tried the Plex.tv trick and it sees to work sort of. Now my YT channel is log in via the entertainment portal on my model 3. However, when I try to access my uploaded videos via my usual way:
Library/my videos seems to NOT work! Not available…?

plex.tv followed by YT works for me too. Thank you!

Same problem here. Going to open a plex account and try the work around.

Thanks guys! It worked.

I was able to login by going to another website that I use login with google. Specifically, I looked up Plex.tv on the YouTube app and logged in with google. Then when I went back to YouTube app, I was logged in.

Thank you for this! Even with the latest software updates I couldn't get it running. This works beautifully.

Actually you don't have to.
I don't use Google to login to Plex. However I still opened the browser, went to Plex.tv and used the Google login.
It doesn't actually have to match an account on plex.
You can then close the browser and YouTube will have you logged-in. (Which means that Netflix and YouTube apps are just a browser window in fullscreen, not actual apps)

Thanks. It worked!!

Worked for me too.

Here is a quick YouTube video showing exactly how to fix this probably. Easy to follow along step by step in your car while viewing on your phone:

When I was a Hulu subscriber I was able to stream in my M3 without issues. But when I canceled Hulu and switched to YouTube TV, that’s when the Google login issue surfaced.

This fix worked for me too, but it’s strange that some folks report no problems whatsoever with logging into Google.

Just got a HW3 upgrade on my vehicle and had the same issue with YouTube. Ending up doing the Plex.TV trick as well.

Ending up doing the Plex.TV trick as well.

Worked for me too

Thank you for the plex.tv advice! My navi memory was full and Tesla said to do a full reset. When I tried to log back into youtube i had the security warning too. Tesla said google log ins are not allowed. I told them that was BS because I was logged in before the reset. The I come here and find the work around! Thanks!

I actually tried to login to YouTube yesterday after getting the V10 update months ago. I got the same problem and came here to look for a solution. So when I get back to my car after work, I will try my DoorDash account.. it used Google login. Now if DoorDash will deliver to my car....I could just live in it. You know.. watch Netflix, eat, sleep....well have to leave the car to go to the bathroom.....

BTW, the sound system in the Model 3 is so much better than my home TV's speaker LOL. When things were blowing up in the show, I could feel the deep vibrations at my legs.

This did the job for me too. Signed into another service via the car browser using Google authentication and lo and behold, the credentials are supplied to YouTube app and I'm in. Thanks!
