    Car plugged in, won't charge and won't sleep

    It appears to be an issue with the specific charger (J1772). I was able to have someone plug me into the adjacent charger and all is good now. Car charges and sleeps properly.

    Car plugged in, won't charge and won't sleep

    All was fine until 5am on the 27th. Then it started acting weird and only sleeping for 1 minute at a time.

    Car plugged in, won't charge and won't sleep

    So I'm away for 3 weeks and now with 2 weeks to go my Model 3 is having battery drain issues. I believe its the L2 charger its connected to. When I first plugged it in it wouldn't charge. Then magically a week later it started to charge. Then a few days after it started to charge it won't charge...

    Auto Socks or Chains?

    Its different for each vehicle. I'd read the owners manual. It tells you exactly what to do. Don't take some internet experts word on it. :) All I can tell you is I got the Konig Summit chains after extensive research. Quality is good and customer service was excellent. I ordered them off Amazon...

    Auto Socks or Chains?

    The only issue with auto socks is; I don't see them holding up long term. I'd use them for emergencies situations only. If you'll use them frequently in the winter get something more durable. If chains then check out Konig K-Summit - easy on and off and won't damage wheels.

    Can we manually set the charging speed to a lower rate in a Tesla Wall Connector?

    I don't think you have type of equipment/controlled environment required to calculate the minuscule difference (a few watts maybe?)

    Can we manually set the charging speed to a lower rate in a Tesla Wall Connector?

    Correct. But current code IF wiring an OUTLET a GFCI breaker is required if you want to pass inspection. Just trying to say hardwiring is the way to go.

    Can we manually set the charging speed to a lower rate in a Tesla Wall Connector?

    Pretty much every charger is able to be hardwired. Unless you need the outlet for another purpose such as RV or welding, hard wiring is the way to go. Wiring a outlet has more complications such as its required to be on a GFCI breaker (depending on your local code of course).

    Can we manually set the charging speed to a lower rate in a Tesla Wall Connector?

    Why? 4/3 NM-B is $12 a foot and it good for 70 amps. 6/3 MC is $5 a foot and good for 75 amps.

    Can we manually set the charging speed to a lower rate in a Tesla Wall Connector?

    SO and SJ cable? For what?...and two runs of 6/3 vs one run of 4/3? What are you trying to do? You don't need a */3 cable, what you going to do with the neutral wire? You'll quickly realize 40 or 48 amp charge rate isn't as big of deal everyone makes it out to be. The different between charing...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector Wire and Conduit Question

    Because certain chargers limit you to 6 awg wire, like the Chargepoint Home Flex. Also, 4awg is a pain to bend and work with. Lastly, 4 awg NM is more like $7 a foot more expensive and 6 awg now days.

    USB Device Malfunction

    Well I got the SanDisk MobileMate USB 3.0 microSD Card Reader And it works fine with the 256GB SD card. So Tesla appears to only like certain SD to USB converters.

    USB Device Malfunction

    Having issues with a 256gb sandisk high endurance micro SD card. Tried two usb converters both give error: UI_a111 "dashcam usb drive not plugged into glovebox" However it still appears to record dash cam footage. Tesla provided USB stick works fine.

    Konig K34 Summit Chains for 2021 M3P

    Well Konig responded fast. Basically the manual and PDF on their website are out dated. 235/35-20 tires require removing 4 of the yellow adjustment screws. That will leave you with 4 gray adjustment screws. Somehow thats how I have it setup now. Trial and error. I hope this helps someone in the...

    Konig K34 Summit Chains for 2021 M3P

    Anyone have these chains? Trying to get mine to fit properly on the 235/35R20 tires, but the directions don't list that size. How many of the adjustment screws do you have on each full chain set?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I think the delivery time frame right when you ordered would be correct. Mine said 6-9 weeks. Mine came right at the start of week 9. Every EDD change after that was incorrect, up until I got a VIN.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Sadly, Tesla is the only manufacture getting away with half ass quality control. Elon doesn't seem to give a rats either. Too many other things going on - aka Spacex, solar, boring, ect... He should really focus on one thing and do it right...not half ass.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Highly doubtful if you consider how taxes work... More likely it has to do with a high cancellation rate. AKA the person who orders who cant afford the car. Seen more than one post from someone saying the bank only approved 80% financing and they needed to find 20% somewhere else...
