I have a low-current draw amplifier and subwoofer install. Everything seems to work fine, except when my car tries to install software, it fails towards the end of the install. The download works with no issues, it's the actual install that fails. I've gone through everything to try to figure out what's happening and finally took it to a service center. The service tech said it was related to my subwoofer. That it was pulling too much power and causing the installation to fail. The amplifier does turn on when the car turns on, so I can understand the amplifier may be active during a software installation.
It seems like I have two options. Remove the amplifier/subwoofer all together, or disconnect it all right before a software update and then reconnect when it's completed. However, I've seen quite a few folks have aftermarket subwoofers in their Tesla's. Can anyone that has an aftermarket subwoofer let me know how they get around this? I'm hoping it's not as involved as installing another battery. I'd rather just remove the system instead of going through all of that.
