The car is still at the dealer for repair. Going on week 6 here… Do you by chance happen to have pages from the service manual that show everything involved in replacing the pump?
Tesla's are much more streamlined like iphones.. Updates do not change any of your settings. You get notified that an update is available and gives you the option to update now or schedule a time to update. Super simple. I think they also keep all their cars on the same version of software.
When I called, they also said to turn the headlight switch to off, not auto.
Maybe this helps ensure the bug that causes the headlights to turn on randomly while the car is parked doesn't happen? Unless, even on off, they still randomly turn on? @Mach-Lee might know. If they CAN'T turn on while on off via the bug, then this would just help ensure your 12v stays at the proper charge level (even though it should get topped off by the HVB when it detects it dropping below a certain point).
Turning the switch to off resets the timer that causes the bug. The headlights reset to auto the next time you start the car. Manually turning the switch to off like once a week might be a workaround until the switches can be replaced.
Hi, I was in the same boat as you. I waited and waited. A few weeks back I finally made an appt with my Ford dealership. I figured if the OTA update came in first I would just cancel. Well it didn't. I asked my dealership if I could watch them do the update and they let me. It took about 30 minutes. They just plug a laptop into the car and it updated all the modules. They did it in a bay but said they could have done it outside in the lot. All they need is a Wifi signal. Very easy!
They’re supposed to hook the 12v battery up to a power supply when doing updates.
They didn't do that but I knew much more than they did. It was the first update they had ever done
Maybe on a Mach-E, but they’ve certainly updated other cars using the same method. It even prompts you before an update starts to ensure the battery is connected to a power supply.
