I’ve been experiencing a frustrating issue with my Tesla: the climate control keeps turning on automatically, even when I’m not using it. It seems to activate randomly, and I’m worried about the impact this could have on my battery life.
Here’s a bit more detail on the situation:
Frequency: It seems to happen at least once a day, typically when I’m parked or when I start the car.
Settings: I’ve checked my climate settings, and I don’t see anything obvious that would trigger this. I’ve also disabled the scheduled climate feature, but it still persists.
Battery Impact: I’m concerned about the strain this will put on my battery, especially since I prefer to manage how and when the climate control runs.
Has anyone else faced this issue? Are there any settings I might be overlooking, or is this something that might require a service appointment? Any advice or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated!
I totally get your frustration! My Tesla’s climate control started acting up too, turning on randomly while parked. It could be a software glitch. Have you tried checking for any updates?
I’ve had a similar issue! Check if your automatic climate control is set to ‘always on’. Sometimes, it can be triggered by the temperature settings or even by the ‘dog mode’ feature if it’s accidentally activated.
That’s what happened to me! I realized my dog mode was still on, and that definitely kept the climate control running. Just a little troubleshooting helped a lot.
You should also check your scheduled preconditioning settings. If they’re set, the climate control will activate at certain times. Could be a simple oversight on your end.
Just to add, the climate control could be responding to outside temperature too! If it’s too hot or cold outside, it might kick on to maintain the cabin temperature, especially if the car thinks it’s not conditioned enough.
