How to hard reset a Cybertruck?

[ituner-HF]

I lost power to my Auxiliar lightbar outlet, I probably tripped an e-fuse or something. What is the procedure to 'hard reset' the Cybertruck in the hope that the fault will be cleared? Holding down both buttons reboots but does not fix the issue. Thanks.

Both buttons while holding the brake down? Both buttons resets the screen only in most Teslas.

Wild guess here, but if you blew a fuse or some sort of breaker, probably need to locate that and replace it. Resetting the Tesla shouldn't auto-do that.

usually an E-FUSE. Let the car go into a deep sleep for 15 min. sentry mode and outlets have to be off
You can also try the power off button under safety and dont touch the car for 10 min or so

The Owner's Manual specifies how to power-cycle:

1. Shift into Park.
2. On the touchscreen, touch Controls > Safety > Power Off.
3. Wait for at least two minutes without interacting with the vehicle. Do not open the doors, touch the brake pedal, touch the touchscreen, etc.
4. After two minutes, open the door to wake the vehicle.

Teslas have breakers that auto-reset. I am thinking is most likely software a software problem because when I crank the volume up I do hear some sound back there, just very very little.

Thanks, I will try that.

Didn't help my rear speakers issue. I am not confident the Cybertruck even did a hard power off as the ambient and dome lights stayed on after everything else went off. I tried it 3 times. Any ideas will be appreciated.

I tried this procedure just now. It look at least 30 seconds for the A/C and interior lights to shut off, and another minute before it "beeped" and the mirrors folded in.

Did you check the sound-system balance/fader controls?

I waited 5 minutes, screen, fan, etc. shut off. I don't recall if there was a beep or the mirrors folded. The Dome lights stayed on and ambient lights stayed on, which I have set to ON rather than Auto. I will try again. You stayed inside, right?

I used the balance to be sure the rears weren't working right. Full to the rear at 11 it sounds like a transistor radio from the 60s.

Those who advised patience were right. The problem resolved itself overnight. Teslas are not like other vehicles. ?

Teslas are like this! My backup camera wouldn't work, no matter what reset I did it wouldn't come back on. Setup a support ticket. Got a reply next morning, and next morning it was working again and NEVER had an issue after.....Gotta love it

A true reset is when the Pyro fuse opens and closes. Thats what "overnight" really means.

I know there has to be some kind of way to force that to happen in service mode, however I have not found it.
Anyone here know how to do that?

In my MX, the way to hard reset was to change the wheel size, which forces a reboot. Perhaps it's the same in the CT.
