    Phone App: iPhone/Android app

    Is this thread still being used list app desires? I would like the app to provide a notification based on mileage, so when I rotate my tires I can add a reminder to have the app let me know when my car has gone 3000 more miles so i can rotate my tires again.

    HPWC/breaker almost caught fire...thoughts?

    As an electrical engineer, I personally set my Tesla to charge overnight at 60 amps (vs the 80 amps it can handle). I do this to minimize the current flow / heat generation in the electrical panel (where I have a 100 amp breaker), the HPWC charging cord, and especially the end connector that...

    MCU unresponsive after parking in the heat

    2013 (Oct) P85. My MCU locked up on me last week... while driving, the navigation map wasn't updating. I tried the scroll button reset and the screen went dark and never came back. Called Tesla and they had me try the reset also. Ended up back home and my Air Conditioning wouldn't shut off, also...

    Looking for parts for Blinder HP-905

    Ended up in my first accident with my 2013 Model S P85, and it took out the front nosecone, destroying the two front sensors for my HP-905. Does anyone have any extra laser sensors they want to sell?

    DIY Dashcam (BlackVue 550 fron&rear) - constant power source from dash

    When I open up my speaker grill in my headliner, I did not find a small connector. I found a large connector with 11 wires. See attached pictures. Does anyone know what this is for? Can I take advantage of it? I would settle for 12VDC switched or un-switched. (Model S P85, Delivered Dec 2013)

    Universal Studios Orlando Valet Parking just added two HPWCs

    The chargers are right before you reach the valet attendants. You can pull in and park yourself, and then go pay for the valet service. You WILL have to sign a waiver form for using the chargers. For use of the chargers, ask for the Lead Valet attendant. At least one person on each shift has...

    Universal Studios Orlando Valet Parking just added two HPWCs

    Don't know how that is going to work out, they haven't officially started doing it yet, since the chargers aren't officially on yet. I have been letting them park my P85 when I go there. And now that there is a valet mode I have less concern.

    HPWC no longer opens the port door

    My experience with the charger port door was that it stuck closed due to the rubber gasket inside. After I used some Armor-All on the inside of the charger port, the door no-longer stuck.

    Trip to Florida Keys

    I just found out about a HPWC installed in Key West that is free for the public! The charging station is at the south end of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary's Eco-Discovery Center. http://floridakeys.noaa.gov/eco_discovery.html . Right now there is no cost to use the charger but...

    Custom Installation - available power from the fuse box?

    I noticed in the manual that there are several unused fuse slots in the fuse boxes. Has anyone checked these to see which ones are "switched" or "always on"? Which ones have been used with the "Add-A-Fuse" options?

    Lighted Tesla T for nosecone

    In reviewing this, I was wondering... Did someone finally come up with an installation that doesn't use the remote, but has the lighted T always on? I thought I read a post about how someone would go into his garage at night and the T was his nitelight allowing him to see to get around his...
