Some people say the nav data comes form TomTom. I am not sure, but the nav control on my CT periodically sends me to locations without roads, "shortcuts" that are dirt and 10 miles longer, U-turns on freeways for mysterious routes, etc. I live in NV and think it might be bad location data, but...

Fantom drain is scary to me. I keep sentry off, climate control off, and leave the windows cracked open, since I live in the desert. The car does not seem very modern under these circumstances, but probably works for the programmers since their universe is between two coffee shops.

Still a total lack of chargers in central Nevda. Ely is open, and working. Tonopah is good, as is Hawthorne, but these 150 kw chargers work there way down to 50 kw as other users show up. I put a home charger at a farmer's barn in dead-center Nevada, so I can cruise there, but that is 48 amps...

I have to report that phantom braking is back. I have had many serious incidents of this recently, and it very much is related to patches of new pavement on the highways. I drive a 100 miles straight stretch regularly, and the car decelerates 75 to 10 mph at the same places on the highway each...

Here is confirmation of the important dimensions, as measured on the rack: Bolt hole for hinge is 1.0" from the end on both upper and lower swing arms. Lower arm total length is 18.75" Upper arm total length is 38.25" Note that the upright 2x2 is welded on the outside of the upper arm, and is...

Yes, 12" trailer extension solid-steel type. It sticks out 9.5 inches beyond the hitch, and the lower cross bar (far side) is welded 5 inches beyond the hitch; the the extender sticks out 4" beyond this, so I can put my umbrella holder in there. This sets the tire 6" from the bumper, and the...

Nothing is bent or deformed. There is some slop when opened, due to the way the 2" tube sits inside the hitch (as all hitches do). I mentioned that I am working on a fix. So this rocks right with the tire in place, and rocks left when opened - all due to the slop I mentioned.

I concur. FSD works fine at slower speeds, but runs off the road repeatedly at 70+. Typically I run into the shoulder on the right, or over the center line into oncoming traffic on the left. This probably happens once every 5 miles. I have done all the reset things, recalibrations, etc. The car...

Thank you for the compliments. I am an amateur, and was thinking of strength when I built this. I drive on rough roads a lot. I do not have a rattle arrestor, but would like to add one - not for the rattles, because there are none, based on the 500 miles of driving so far (maybe 100 on dirt with...

I have been perplexed how to carry a spare, so I built this. The criteria are to be strong, off-center so the camera works, low wind resistance, able to swing wide to use the tailgate, and easy to attach the tire without a heave-ho-hold-the-tire while you bolt it down. I used 2x2" square tube...

This is also the #1 way to get a red strike - exceed the "max speed" set by even 1 mph, and the robot AI gets pissed off. It is easy to exceed this speed with the great acceleration of the CT.

Interesting. Since the diagrams for 110v and 230v are the same (?), this means I just put double the voltage on the 1 line in, and it should work.... My 240v source is single phase also. I see why you recommend the phone call. We have 8,000 feet of rock to cut, and blowing the motor would put a...

This is the DX 350-N 1300, "52918", which is the 120v 60hz version. Looks like the 56915 motor and the 5885 wires and recepticle.

TY. I actually understand your explanation and appreciate that you made this clear; I feared it was something complicated like this, and it makes sense. I need another solution, rather than just moving wires around...)

1) CT conformity to staying in the lane is proportional to speed. It works great at 45 mph, but by 75 mph it is poor. It runs me off the road once a mile at these speeds, either to the left or the right. 2) Conformity to speed limit signs is random. Sometimes is blows through a 35 mph sign at...

Hi. I am stuck in the boondocks for a few weeks, and trying to figure out how to turn my 3 hp rock saw from my Tesla outlets. Nothing works, and I am not sure if anything will, but if there is any advice, please step forward…) Saw motor: single phase, 3400 rpm, 120v, 60hz, 15-amp continuous...

CT does not drive in the center of the lane at highway speeds. Seems to do pretty good below 45 mph, unless the wind is blowing. On the highway, it rides right of center while in the right lane, and left of center in the left lane. It travels outside of the lane repeatedly, often driving...

I get the strike when it goes over the limit set by me (not the speed limit). If I accelerate 1 mph past this limit, I get the red, the wiggly steering wheel, I then get the disengage, the video is sent to Tesla, and I get the strike. All I am trying to accomplish is to travel at a speed I set...
