Hi all - so a few days ago, my Powerwalls became unresponsive. On the TESLA app, all of the bubbles (Solar, Grid, Home, Powerwall) were greyed out. I called TESLA support, options 2, 3, 3, and was connected to a person rather quickly.
They didn't know what was wrong other than that the Powerwall meter were offline, but they didn't know why. I was advised to do a Whole Home Reset in the following steps (I have 2 Powerwalls, 31 solar panels with individual micro inverters, and associated installations):
NOTE: Discuss with your installation guy, TESLA, and if following the below steps, use at your own risk
Nobody could tell me what triggered the malfunction, and/or if the simultaneous rollout of the power wall software from 1.44 to 1.45.1 was associated with the issue or its resolution.

NOTE: Discuss with your installation guy, TESLA, and if following the below steps, use at your own risk
- Switch off Microinverter/Envoy breakers
- Switch off PV System (solar panel) breakers
- Turn off each power wall (on/off switch on the power wall itself)
- Switch off Powerwall breakers
- Switch off Home Main Breaker (I have a 200amp panel, and that's what was switched off)
- Wait 5-10 minutes (note, now the entire house is dead/disconnected from power)
- Turn all systems off in reverse order, i.e. from #5 backwards to #1
- Finally, log out of TESLA app & log back in (make sure that if you're logged in on multiple devices, that you log out on all of them)
