Hello everybody.
Some times ago I started to get this "open / short circuit" alert when turning right. It appears somehow randomly, sometimes at every turn for a day, then nothing for a week, etc...
I highly suspect the cause is the right side repeater
On this part, I could read the name of the manufacturer : Perei. Seems to be a manufacturer in UK (sounds logical as many parts come from Lotus)
On their website I found this reference that looks quite the same SR0227
I emailed their customer service, and they confirmed that they produced the original roadster part, but, guess what, they don't have them anymore and the SR0227 are not exactly the same (thanks Tesla for locking all parts to customers...)
I'm currently waiting to get another reply as I asked what exactly are the differences and if the SR0227 could replace the original part, and for what price. I didn't ask Tesla yet for the replacement, but I wonder if anyone here already did, or replaced the SR by something else.
I'll leave the references here, just in case it couls help someone in the future.
Best regards
EDIT : here the 2 emails I received so far. some part removed to protect the innocents
