I can turn on the external speaker and the CT will play music externally but when I exit the drivers seat and close the door the external playing of music stops. The purpose of this function is to get music to play continuously when say camping for example.
Anyone know the trick to keep the music playing externally when everyone has left the vehicle?

Did you try Camp Mode?

From ChatGPT:


When using the Boombox Mode on the Tesla Cybertruck (or other Tesla vehicles with external speakers), the playback will stop when you exit the vehicle and close the doors. This behavior is designed to prevent unintended external sound projection when the vehicle is unattended.

Key Points:
  • Music in Boombox Mode: External playback is tied to the vehicle's active state. Once you exit and lock the Cybertruck, the system will stop playing through the external speakers.
  • Continuous Playback: If you want music to continue, you must remain in the vehicle or leave it in Park with the doors open or not locked. However, this is not ideal for security or battery usage.
For extended external playback, you may need a workaround, such as using a portable Bluetooth speaker or another external audio setup. Tesla's external speaker features are more suited for temporary use rather than continuous playback when you leave the vehicle.

it will work with camp mode enabled.
I played music with camp mode enabled. While the inside speakers will still work, I never heard the external speakers when camp mode is on. Is there additional settings I need to adjust?

Nope. Once boombox is enabled the volume slider will control the external speaker and not the internal speakers. And with camp mode on it will continue playing when you leave the seat and the doors are closed.

Just trick the car….


Turn it in and then exit from the passenger side.

The truck thinks you are still in the drivers seat.

Camp mode prevents it from locking when you walk away and will leave the music playing.
