Try taking one of your other Teslas out first and then try to park the CT in your garage....works wonders for space management ;) Otherwise I'm happy to park one of them at my place? CT will definitely fit in my 40ft long garage. :cool:

States with CT trained service centers and random pool under 50k order number or so. Just random enough to annoy people but still be fair, without telling anyone exactly what they are doing, so they can change it at any time they like.

Thanks! Sorry I haven’t been to active lately, I've been looking in from time to time, but there has been lots of new traffic and it was getting a bit tiresome keeping up and reposting old topics. I wanted to setup a CT wiki instead, just to make info easy to find and just point to it, but...

It's not really too complicated. They seem to have borrowed the setup from the Powerwall3 (same capacity and battery voltage). The PCS has 3-4 of these AC to DC bidirectional converters modules, which means they can also do DC to AC. If you are plugged in a AC circuit it will take 240/120V AC...

PCS manages most of the loads on 48V and the SbW steering from memory. Would most definitely be capable of causing the error messages listed. I suppose the good news is that it's probably not a SbW fault, but the bad news is that SbW doesn't work well without power? I'd be keen to gather any...

You are not reading what I wrote correctly. I didn't say it was a single component failure that caused it, rather I said that "if it was" a single component, it should not cause any further failures, and "if" it did, then there is a problem with the design. Either way this type of failure is...

A single component failure should not cascade through other critical sysytems upon failure. This is the fastest way to get a flight crash investigation episode on TV. If they are not isolated from eachother that means the design allowed for the connection to exist. That is a design problem as...

That does sound like a major failure in the power system, I'm surprised both the steering assistance and the brake booster went offline at the same time. Once again, these should not fail at the same time at all, just imagine you're coming down a hilly pass at the time. It now sounds like not...

Or twice as many gears in the rear for the dual motors there? It will also depend on load, if the PM motor is up front (CB) or rear (AWD) and the only motor that is on and being used for cruise, and what gearing each motor set has. I'd also say it would be because of straight cut gears and...

Whoops missed this post. Seems like yours is an electrical fault on the 48V side as described in my above post. There is a very slim chance that this is software related, as they normally don't need to update and reprogram MCUs that handle powrr conversion routines. This is all done in bench...

That is potentially a non-steering equipment related failure then. From memory there is also at least two power supply redundancies as well. You might just have a flat 48V battery, or a faulty 48V power supply. Either would throw a critical failure, as I would assume for normal driving, all...

True to some degree, but the moon or mars would technically be more complicated to do too, and even further from a SpaceX service station. Technology bandwagen need not mean unreliable, if reliability and subsequent safety, by avoiding a steering failure is of more importance than a software...

One of my favourite under sea animals the cuttlefish. Their colour and texture changing camouflage skin is incredible, it's like the OLED TV of the sea. But to the story here...do they know that they are also the same 4 year old eggs, or if they hatched at all, or if they actually found the...

Doesn't sound like a small problem if they are replacing racks. Not a failure I'd like to experience in the outback, 100miles from the nearest gas station with a tow truck, let alone a thousand or two miles from the nearest Tesla service center. I'm not sure all the benefits of SbW outweigh the...

Hmm ok. I'm not sure anyone actually confirmed physically what the rear steering angle was. Maybe it has been 7 degrees all along, it's just that nobody measured it. Have you seen the SbW "Critical Error" reports? Seems like there's a problem with the redundancy sensors.

Nice, but to be expected? Might have to come up with a different test for the CT, like one with corners. :cool:

I thought on release it was limited to 3, but should be available with 10 degrees with a OTA? 7 degrees, seems like a step up, but not quite all of the available range of angle for the rear steering? Should be a big step up and noticeable upgrade though. Time to relearn how to drive the CT SbW.

The Error seems to be redundancy sensors. That sounds to me like it's the front SbW steering. If so this "Critical Warning" is obviously a new one for Teslas, in that no other Tesla's have SbW. The question is, is it a false positive (code bug, momentary comms or sensor) or an actual failure...

Here's a video from Out of Spec reviews where they discuss and compare the warranty and wording of what is covered by the Tesla Cybertruck Warranty. Seems it offers Tesla a very large opportunity NOT to cover your repair costs should parts fail, and exceeds what other manufacturers offer in...

Talk about being a glass half empty type of guy. At least something kept you alive for 500+ years. ;)
