This video was a life saver. $1980 quote just to replace PTC heater. My fuse wasn’t blown luckily but the rest helped slot. Thanks bro. $169 on eBay. Savings of…a lot. Took me about 4 hours. Good times
i just replaced my ptc and it actually doesn't matter what part number they are the slightly different are the plug for the yellow cable its higher then gen 1 ptc but you can remove the tape from the yellow cable and it will be slightly longer just to reaching it and plugged. don't worry when you see that the wire are to short
@@kziggy3949 I'm about to take on the job on my Mod S Signature, VIN 151. I ordered a 1060432-00-C Gen3 late 2016 unit from Autobahn to replace my 6007385-00-D. The socket for the control input is in a different location, but the offset doesn't look like much of a stretch and I'm hoping to be able to plug it in without modification. I'll let you know how it goes.
Yes, you can take you changes. However the PTC has been reported to short and fail prematurely so likely a poor design and you take the risk of blowing more fuses later. Know that fuses are pretty resilient and reliable and typically don't just blow randomly on their own without something causing it to blow
Thanks for this video. My PTC heater just went in my 2013 P85. I was wondering about the part number you show on screen (1041265-00-). The only units I can find that have that part number are Gen 1 and look like the unit you show on the left. My current broken PTC is 1041265-00-D which was a replacement by Tesla when the original PTC heater failed about 4 years ago. The PTCs that I find which look like the Gen 3 with the white and blue plug have a different part number (1060432-00- ). I am hoping to get a Gen 3 and fix this issue once and for all. Seems the Gen 1 are prone to shorting and blowing the dc/dc fuse. Can you confirm the part number on the Gen 3 unit you used? Thanks.
My 2018 Gen3 replacement unit had a 1041265-00 part number, 1041265-00-F to be exact. The last letter "F" in the sequence (vs.D,C,B...) suggests my replacement a slightly newer release series (but not necessarily a completely newer Gen) that what you have. Seems odd given you had yours replaced 4 years ago but my only guess is that you may already have had a Gen3 replacement unit installed?? I don't know of any difference the color of the plug has. For what its worth my failed 2013 unit had a 6007385-00-G part number...so steer clear of that part!
@@kziggy3949 Awesome. This is helpful information. From what I have found it looks like the F revision is Gen 3, but I don't see any mention of Gen 3 on my D revision. So I will certainly look for a 1041265-00-F unit. Fortrunately the warmer weather is arriving in New England, so I can wait for the right part. The last time it went out was in 15F temps and I had to drive it to the service center about 2 hours away. Thanks again for your help and great job documenting the steps involved.
@@TMART09 I've been holding out for a 1041265-00 series, but like you've found, none have turned up lately. But with the cold weather not far off, I will probably settle for a 6007385-00. I found this info on a site selling a 6007385-0-E from a 2013: "use if DC/DC converter is above wheel well. Vin P28515 or earlier (manufactured 1/6/14 or earlier). Do not use 6007385-00-E, F, or G when 1041265-00-A is available." Not sure what to make of it. Sounds like they will work, but better to use a 10041265-00. I wish I knew why tesla makes this recommendation. Anyhow, when I do replace mine I will post an update
These vids are awesome. Thanks @KZiggy for doing them. Question. I just received a quote from Tesla for PTC heater replacement and there are 2 part #’s on there. When I search them, they look like the same thing. Any ideas? One is $700 and one is $1200. LEFT HAND DRIVE 1.00 GEN3 PTC HTR, EMC FIX(1060432-00-E) GEN3 PTC LEFT HAND 1.00 DRIVE SERVICE, MS LEGACY(1041265-00-F)
1041265-00-# I believe is recommended for 2012-2016 and 1060432-00-# is for 2016 and onward. For my 2013, Tesla replaced my PTC 4 years ago with 1041265-00-D. I did see posts on TMC where pre-2016 owners were successful installing the later model PTC heater.

Just got done switching my ptc today it worked thanks so much for the vid
Bobby, how’d it go? Happy with the new PTC? Did you replace the old one with a Gen 3?
I was thinking about doing it myself, until I watched the video 😂. Thanks for putting this out!
i just replaced my ptc
and it actually doesn't matter what part number they are the slightly different are the plug for the yellow cable
its higher then gen 1 ptc but you can remove the tape from the yellow cable and it will be slightly longer just to reaching it and plugged.
don't worry when you see that the wire are to short
if I took these things apart, I would never get them back together 😂
Great video! Is it the same for Model X 2017?
When was the gen 3 ptc heater introduced?
K Zig, how has the Gen 3 PTC performed? All working just fine?
Yeah, no issues and working as expected.

Any chance the PTC could be good even if the fuse is blown?

Thank you! I’ll try replacing the PTC first.
