Electrical system test

[Dantes]

So this is the first time this has happened to me but getting in the truck this morning I couldn’t get it to go into drive when I noticed a notification saying the electrical system was being tested. The cabin lights flickered ever so slightly but I couldn’t move the truck and didn’t have any indication on how long that test would take. I think it’s cool that the truck performs tests on itself but it really should notify you of the date and time it will choose to do so and to give you an option to choose to do it later if you really need to drive at that moment.

In 7 years of driving Tesla, I've never had that happen.

Can you estimate how quickly you went from opening the door to attempting to place it in drive? was it super quick?

Few seconds. I get in, put my seatbelt on and press the brake. It took about 15 minutes to run the test until it allowed drive. Could’ve been longer since idk if it was already testing before I got in.

Nothing I can see. Was last in service on December 17th to have a slider panel replaced on the right side. Got too close to a big rock and it tore up the plastic panel. One day to have it replaced.
