One of the best things I have done to my 2021 model 3 is replacing the 12V battery at around 60k miles. The battery was about $80 from the service center and my 15 minutes of labor. Even during the recent polar vortex weather, park-n-fly for 5 days at -15F degree, the car was just fine. I will do another swap at around 100k.

Think they stopped using old school batteries on ice vehicles about 15 years ago then start using gel, but i do miss the lead acid batteries as they last years keep it topped up for so long then drain the thing, pour some acid in it and more life in the battery,, you can't beat really old stuff when it was made to last, modern stuff don't last, modern cars any type, washing machine,tv ect ect.

@teslatrackdays2819 Год назад

Super helpful! Many years ago I was driving an original Model S and came back at the end of a ski day to find the 12v was dead. 10 degrees, getting dark, on the side of a mountain far from town and everyone was going home. Fortunately Tesla was able to arrange a recovery, but a simple jump would have been much easier. These days when road tripping I always carry a 12v battery (usually a deep cycle marine) to run air pumps and power an inverter, so it's great to know it can serve as a jump battery as well.

Great and helpful video, thanks! Not sure if you’d know the answer to this, but can a portable jump starter battery pack jump the Tesla 12v? You mentioned a running ICE car would offer a bit excessive voltage than needed for the Tesla, so not sure if it even works if it would be as safe as jumping from another vehicle. Would you have any ideas or thoughts on this?

Yes, a portable jump battery can work if it's designed to supply 12v over a longer period of time than it takes to typically jump an ICE car.

When I contacted Tesla roadside service I was told this time I’ll have to pay for tow service since I didn’t drive it to service center last time. So I decided to wait until today and jump started the car myself and dropped it off.

I've been avoiding making a video bc I don't like to do negative videos, especially about a company that has been giving me good customer service. No, they never sponsored me on any way. But, i can't recommend this battery. 12v bus stability is compromised which really stresses the PCS ($1100) in the Tesla, the BMS is not very good and you will most likely get errors when it's cold as it's capacity goes way down and confuses the tesla sw.

@litestuffllc7249 8 месяцев назад

Your instructions are that the high voltage batteries would charge your weak or dead 12 volt - if they could; they would have. The 12 v is either dead as in not going to work or the high voltage battery is dead first - and hence your 12 was not charged and you make it revive senerio won't work; you have to then charge your main battery pack to do anything. You also suggested the 15v lithium pack this doesn't apply to ..why not they fail all the time?

@CyrusKhan-wv2fx 5 месяцев назад

I believe there is a loop back wiring that connects between the HV and 12V battery to facilitate the constant recharging…so my educated guess is that the fuse or wiring in this loop back component is the point of failure…and a simple and inexpensive thing to replace. However in Tesla fashion, they change the entire 12V battery (and that loop back wiring hush hush) so they can charge more and admittedly give their vehicles longer trouble free operation

@mmark300 Год назад

Depends on why the charging door wouldn't open - a dead 12v would cause more problems than that, so that probably wasn't why. There is a manual release for that door in the trunk. Or it could just be pulled open if in a pinch.
