Is Cabin Overheat Protection not working?

Mine was working great with 2024.14.3. Just received 14.6 but have not tried it again yet.

It seems to have stabilized back to 100F now that I’ve awaken it. I’m curious if left idle too long, does entering its lowest power mode (hibernation) prevent cabin protection from operating. I had the truck sitting on the driveway for a couple days.

Yes, it does have a time out.

The time out is twelve hours in a Model 3, but yeah, doesn't work in hibernate or sleep mode. Also shuts off if the battery gets low.

Dunno what parts are different in the Cybertruck - it doesn't use the same software branch. Model 3 allows 'fan only' vs 'use AC' for the overheat protection, so maybe it's only partially enabled in the software so far.

COP is intended to maintain a reasonable upper temp for your comfort, not to protect the vehicle. It therefore disengages 12 hours after being parked.

Forget all that, what is Bioweapon Defense Mode?

Only 147º lol

I tried "Vent", but this dropped the temp about 5º within about 10 minutes, and then it stayed there for hours.

So instead I activated climate: 5 minutes to get down to ambient, another 10 or so to get comfortable (below 80º) and another 10 to reach my set-point. This is while parked in my driveway, in the sun. August is going to be interesting.

Fresh air enters the cabin through a HEPA filter, the "Bioweapon" mode recirculates through the filter with fans on HIGH.

Anyone else having issues with cabin overheat tab on app? I click it on and it just goes right back to off position.

Keeps your lungs clean during a chem warfare attack, or those dreadful nuclear fallout particles.

I was a CBRN (Chem, Bio, Nuc, Rad) guy in the Air Force and I was so happy to have this mode.
