When the heating goes on strike, a car journey quickly becomes an ordeal. A reliable heating system is essential in the Tesla, especially when you're on the road in the depths of winter. Although this saves important energy, the bottom line is that you still want to be comfortable in the car. So what to do if the Tesla heater fails

Tesla heater faulty: possible solutions
If the Tesla heater is acting up, the first thing to do is to rule out a user error. To do this, make sure that the fan is set to "Max" and also try preheating in the app or the Romantic mode (the warm fan is also activated here).
A reset or a short wait can also help. As always, you should also make sure that the latest software version is installed - the software has often been the culprit in heating problems in particular.
If nothing helps, the only option is to go to the service center. Here you can insist on prioritized treatment, at least in winter; after all, heating is also relevant to safety.
