    That's kinda what my gut has been telling me as well! Does anyone have any experience in this area? Has anyone had their SuperCharging disabled, and then successfully turned back on?

    Also, the car still has updates available. Does anyone suggest I update it? And then if Tesla ever turns off SuperCharging, does anyone know what the guys here on the forum charge for their skills to turn it back on? And do they need it to be on an older software version to do so? Thanks! And...

    Here is a picture of the window! Hopefully DMV will not say anything about it. Does anyone have any advice on the Climate Control fan. Or why it says power reduced, and the other codes?

I got a fellow Oregonian here:) I'm actually on a deadline to get it registered, because here in Oregon after Jan. 1st it's over $300 to Register because its electric, and doesn't benefit the gas tax But the one thing is my brother and I have been trying to figure out, is will...

    Wow you did a really clean job on that! I would be super surprised if it doesn't pass! Yeah mine is a Salvage Title, and I thought about it alot but mine bent back pretty well, and in my state all they do is check to make sure theres 4 wheels, all lights function and make sure the VIN matches...

    Rebuilding wrecked 2015 Tesla Model S

    Yes and I even drove it about a mile and then back into the hanger, it just says power reduced and doesnt have alot of power! And that's what I thought I read before! That I would have to change that in order for it to work! So my only guess could be if like if went to a shop for an insurance...

    Rebuilding wrecked 2015 Tesla Model S

    Yes the cut loop is disconnected. and I've been waiting to change my 12v battery, until I'm ready to have it out of the hanger, so it can maintain it's own charge of the battery when the High voltage is connected! No I actually didn't. I read some about the pyrofuse, and I thought I...

    Wow they are very similar in damage! And even the same side for the damaged fenders! That's awesome yours is a 90D! I wish I had the extra capacity! Did you have any of those error codes at anytime throughout your process? Also do you think the system self clearing for the most part? And...

    It has firmware v9.0 on it, OTA update is available but I'm not planning on installing it. I found out the center radiator is damaged and drained. So now I'm just waiting on all the parts. Does anyone have experience bleeding the Tesla coolant system? Anything I should do in Particular?

    Oh okay thanks! Yeah I can understand Tesla's worry about liability ect. But let's be real, if they're really worried then they should have it so someone like me can easily take it in for inspection to make sure it's safe. And heck maybe even have that particular inspection free so as to...

    Okay thanks so much! How do you avoid idling fees (I'm very new to the whole Tesla's system) do you just unplug before its fully charged?

    Rebuilding wrecked 2015 Tesla Model S

    Oh sweet! Thanks for the reply! So I'm assuming I would have to set up that account and send them the info to be able to SuperCharge if the car has no payment info to bill to. I'm just worried about them disabling it, does anyone know of any instances where they have turned off SC after...

    What to know when buying a salvage Tesla?

    Thank you for linking that! So how do you tell if SuperCharging is disabled? Before I disconnected the first responder loop, I put in a route and it showed all the SuperCharging stations so is that a good sign? And if Tesla does disable it who are the guys who know how to get root access? Thanks!

    Okay thanks! In the shop I'll be using I have access to a 240v cord that we plug all the welders into, that should work right?

    What to know when buying a salvage Tesla?

    Yeah unfortunately it's just those two peices and a tow adapter. I dont know who would've had them separated but oh well. Does anyone know if they sell just the cable portion? It appears I have the part that plugs into the car and the part that just goes in a wall socket

    Thank you for your reply, I actually didn't look in the back, as soon as I get home I will check. It wasn't in the front though. I never even thought about the 1st responder Loop, if I unplug that is it safe and will it come back on all normal again? Also I'm not sure how I'm going to get it...

    OK thanks, that make sense! But do you think it will last a whole week without Draining to 0? I heard that if you leave it unplugged in your garage and it drains completely dead you have to have Tesla service come to turn it back on. And they will not do that for me because this car has not been...
