Okay thanks, that's probably what I am going to do as well since the 120V outlet should definitely have no trouble providing the full 100 watts the Mini needs during peak power spikes.
Since this thread has a lot of responses, what interior mounts have people used successfully for the Starlink Mini?
We are going to be taking a vacation later this year and I plan to take the Mini off of the house (where I use it as a backup WAN connection) and put it in the Cybertruck. We'd be...
I just wanted to update this thread in case others run into my issue. As previously reported one of my pillar cams was "dead" shortly after holiday update. Tesla local SC insisted I had to bring the truck in so they could diagnose the issue.
A few days before the appointment I had a newer...
Well, it's drivable. I went into the service menu and one of the cams will not initialize, even when I do a reboot. Service says I must come in with it so I assume they'll just replace that camera and test the cable.
Shortly after getting the 2025 Holiday Update I have lost parking features, FSD and automatic emergency braking. The service menu shows APP_w137_rPillarCamInitFault the right side pillar cam won't initialize and I can confirm this as I cannot select it from the live view when the car is in...
I agree. Tesla probably builds the easiest to work on vehicles from a DIY perspective, the vehicles are built with a straight forward approach to repair.
The risk for someone not experienced is the "tricks of the trade" that one picks up doing this stuff for a few years IRL.
Like a lot of...
So I called the Tesla collision local to me this morning, this collision center is 60 miles away. They said there's no way they can do the repair while I wait, that they will take the vehicle, put it in the repair queue then when it comes up for eval they will look at it, figure out parts/labor...
yeah other than popping the cover off of the tabs it doesn't look too bad. How hard was it to transplant the reflectors, wiring harnesses, etc. from the old cover to the new one?
I found the technical manual and it's not overly complicated but might be hair raising for anyone who doesn't do this stuff regularly.
You have to pull the trim plate out in the frunk and disconnect two of the 48V wiring harnesses, then you have to remove some trim pieces from the bumper/fender...
I need to replace the rear bumper cover on my truck. Tesla collision is a long distance from me and I assume they will check the truck in for a period of days while they get the part.
Has anyone done it themselves and if so how hard was it? It's hard to tell from the technical parts diagram...
A recent update added more steering feedback to the yoke. It does not make the steering "heavier" it just means that you can feel the road surface more when driving due to an improved haptic feedback between the wheel sensors and the steering yoke.
It's a pretty big upgrade and removes some of...
