    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    *Rubs a defibrillator together with glee* Did someone say a voltage jump? 🤣

    Sentry and cabin climate control battery drain

    Thanks but see my earlier comment. I don't think it was COP in my case, as I said it was 21°c in my garage at 11pm, i didn't manually turn on the AC, so why was AC (or at least the fan) running on its own when nothing on the app or screen indicates it should be? I understand the DC-DC converter...

    Sentry and cabin climate control battery drain

    Yeah but think about it tho, what's "sleep mode"? Cos in engineering terms, the loss (or draw) is the sum of parasitic drain. We know this can't be due to battery cell balancing as that's a resistive balancing strategy and happens whether the HV contactors are open or closed. So what is actually...

    Sentry and cabin climate control battery drain

    Re Sentry mode draining battery - I've made a really interesting observation last night. I came home on the motorbike and walked past the parked Model Y (which had Sentry enabled even at home). As I walked past it, I can hear the AC running as you can hear the air getting sucked in the cabin air...

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    Sorry the closest is the HDMI taking over the rear view window, which imo is a great integration because you still need the rest of the screen for car controls like HVAC/air suspension/Bluetooth calls etc within easy and quick reach especially whilst you're driving.

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    Reach out to UPDD and see if they have anything. I understand the pain, I spent all of last weekend trying to resurrect the touch function of an ancient HP Touchsmart for the kids.. still no luck -but UPDD were the only peeps to have drivers of friggin every VID/PID imaginable. Infineon wouldn't...

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    was my guess close? :) ... Keep me posted, I'd be interested in one, especially if you can get touch input too!

    Tesla Model Y-LR in Australia

    We got our MYP under LCT threshold.. I better not say too much, apparently only about 3 or 4 customers in the whole country managed to achieve that, so that'd make it pretty easy for Tesla to identify me.

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    Yeh so I'd say someone's can just put an LVDS deserialiser+HDMI switcher+LVDS serializer in a box to sit between the MCU and the screen right between the fakra ports (to make it plug & play). The I2C line gives me an idea tho, it's almost 100% guarenteed that'd just deserialise as USB HID...

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    If I had to guess, I'd say their cars have a different firmware than yours and mine. One which natively supports external input, eg: via a USB-C port or something.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    OMG No wonder Tesla was pushing the 30 June deliveries so hard.. there was a $4k discount on its way which only the top brass knew about. This is why we shouldn't laugh at owners listing their 2022's for more than new list price, the poor souls on here who took delivery just this week gone have...

    BUG: Autopilot engaging the HDMI interface

    [For future searchers' benefit]: on the "older" S and X's that have the full steering wheel buttons+scroll wheels (not just the scroll like the 3/Y's), you can hold the button below the right scroll wheel and it will also toggle between HDMI or reverse camera. that's what I've been doing if I go...

    HDMI interface to the touchscreen

    to be fair if my HDMI box can takeover the whole screen and touchscreen functions and move it to a different host computer and allowing me to switch back and forth, that'd work for me too. but it can't. And we can't simply take over the whole screen either witiout taking the MCU apart and...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    On the one hand i feel sorry for the seller, cos they just paid a higher price a year ago and just tryna get some of it back - to be honest, most of us gonna be in that situation in a year or two's time and we're all gonna cry cos new P's by then might be selling for 70k and we'd just be shaking...
