Sorry, I replied in another thread: Gateway waiting time to reconnect to grid Turns out that the gross power was fine, there was arcing at one of the meter contacts/blades to the associated socket jaw in the panel which was causing high frequency noise (my guess) that threw off the PW. The...

The PG&E tech found the problem when he was removing the power monitor that he had installed a week earlier. He decided to pull the meter since he said he had seen problems with the contacts in the past and surprise... When PG&E inserted the meter the first time, the upper right blade didn't...

I've been having trouble with the grid contactor in my Gateway 2 cycling frequently and in a two hour call with Tesla and a tech from my installer today, the Tesla guy said something I haven't heard before. He said in Puerto Rico, Hawaii, California, Wyoming and several others I missed, the GW...

My TEG 2/PWs were upgraded from 21.20.2 to 21.20.5 Friday and my system is back to crazy mode. While on the phone with Tesla, she timed one of the cycles at 20 s for the contactor to open and close; got to 54 cycles by 9 am. So much for 5 min... She changed my ticket from last weekend...

I was updated back to 21.20.2 today after being downgraded on Friday. It solved the contactor cycling problem I mentioned in another post: Weird Gateway behavior after recent firmware rollback

I have a three PW/11.1 kW solar install. I noticed on Saturday that I had about six backup events, Sunday I had 24 and today before 9am I had over 100, all very short (<1 min). The PWs were also not discharging like they should, instead power was coming from the grid with the PWs well above...

I'm also on a Gateway 2 and was reverted. Along with that the system seems to be misbehaving. I have it in self-powered mode with a 10% reserve and I keep drawing power from the grid where I normally would be drawing from the Powerwalls. The power seems to have been flaky today (just north of...

Also the self driving computer, but I just saw something in an old copy of the service manuals I have that says the console USB ports plug directly into the back of the touch screen so they most likely do go to the infotainment computer. Did you find a datasheet for the infotainment computer or...

I'm getting both computer upgrades soon and would like to add the Tesla USB hardware (Pi 0). I have a 2017 S. According to TeslaTap the capacity of the S USB ports is < 2W and 6.2W for 3/Y. Anybody know if the upgraded S computer also upgrades the USB port power capacity?

Nobody else will be as cheap as Tesla... I am going with Cobalt Power Systems in Mountain View for solar and three Powerwalls. It is substantially more expensive than going through Tesla but this is for a new house build so I needed a deterministic schedule vs a Tesla schedule. They've been...

Doing new construction now and I went with a Variable Refrigerant Flow heat pump system from Mitsubishi: Residential System Builder | Mitsubishi Electric You can zone it very finely, down to individual rooms. We have a 5 ton system. It looks like a conventional system from the outside, i.e...

That's it, thanks to you both.

Just scheduled my first service and then noticed some strange defects (?) on the center screen. The run along the top ~1/4 of the display on each side and about the same across the top. I haven't seen pictures like this before, anybody else seen them/know a cause?

I just called (Silicon Valley), 183xxx VIN, mid-March 17 delivery. Initially they said they didn't see it but after checking somewhere else she said I was eligible and asked if I wanted to schedule service. Having it done Thursday! (no other reason to go in for service)

I'd like to put some magnets inside the front bumper so I can temporarily attach my front plate when I park in San Jose/SF since they will ticket if it is missing. Anybody have any idea on how easy the bumper is to remove or know of another way to gain access? I stuck my hand up from the...

@jdowell362 OC Detailing is a shop in Fremont: OCDetailing - Bay Area Coating & Clear Bra Specialist They've done a bunch of Teslas (they estimated 1,800); I had a full wrap (Xpel), CQuartz and window treatment in April. The owner is Joe and they definitely know what they are doing. Of...

White on white for me too: Back seat is a little intimidating...

Check this post: Motley Fool story - Tesla Replacement Part Delays The Tesla VP of Service (or close) replied to a similar thread. "If you have an issue with a shop, please PM me directly and our team will advocate and manage your repair." His forum name is JonMc...

Looks like the unused (in US) intrusion module connector shown in the Teslatap article is connected to F100 in the frunk area which is a 5A fuse (see FlatSix911's post above). This connector is typically used to get unswitched power for the camera. I'd bet that a 2A fuse would be fine for the...

This is probably the best overall guide: https://teslatap.com/articles/ultimate-2017-tesla-dashcam-guide/ With the latest Blackvue you apparently don't need any accessories to activate parking mode (I'm almost done installing a Thinkware F770).

Just posted a pic with the ultra white interior: Poll: Ultrawhite - modern or cheap looking?

Also a pearl white with ultra white interior. Instead of carbon fiber trim I got the figured ash, looks like it isn't an option now: The back seats are a little intimidating... Pick up a pack of no lotion/no scent baby wipes to keep in the car, does a great job keeping the seats clean...

Make up post, gets me to 7

Oops missed a day. Maybe it is 10 posts that we need?

Cashier's check is in hand, now just 6 more days to go...

Another day down, wife just found out how much the car costs today :D

Hmm... I guess I can count down the days until my pilgrimage to Fremont to pick up my Model S, 7 days to go. Maybe two a day when I get close due to uncontrollable excitement! Hopefully it is only 10 posts, we engineers can only do uncontrollable excitement for so long...

Do you have a CAD file for the one you think fits best?
