    Great video. I locked my car with my iPhone and card key inside. (The card key slipped out of my pocket onto the drivers seat.) My other card key was in my desk at work. Ugh. I had downloaded an app "Watch for Tesla" for my apple watch. I went back inside my house to retrieve my apple watch and fortunately I was able to unlock my car with the Watch for Tesla app on my apple watch.

  • @NB-no7lh

    PRO TIP: You need to ensure that the TESLA mobile app is set to “Track My Location - Always Allow”, AND in order for the TESLA EV to unlock as you approach the vehicle, you need to ensure that the TESLA app is running (even if it is only running in the background). Your phone screen can be locked, or your phone screen can be unlocked with another app running in the foreground, but as long as you have the TESLA mobile app running in the background, then Bob’s your uncle! Just don’t swipe up (iOS) to close the TESLA app when you are done using it. Always leave it running in the background.

    Thanks for the helpful video. One question. Is there a way to unlock all doors as I approach my tesla (without going to the driver’s side first)? For example, let someone (e.g. my kids) get in the car before me, or put groceries in the trunk without opening the driver’s side door. I know I can use my phone app to unlock all doors but I wish there is a way to do it just by getting close to it.

      Yes, just open the passenger door before the driver door and all the doors should open. Opening the driver door first locks out all the passenger doors as a safety feature.

    Excellent review. I have a question , if you are inside the car, are the doors locked or unlocked? Say you are picking up a passenger, will he be able to just open the door from outside or are the door locked. I do not see a button to unlock or to close or doors when I am inside. Please let me know. Thank you.

    • @ThatTeslaChannel

      Great question. Look for a very small "lock" icon on the top of the screen. Tap this to "unlock" or "lock" the car while inside.

    If your 12 volt battery is drained out, none of the methods you mentioned will work
    Only way to do is to jump start ( yes old fashioned jump start
    Inside the lid of your toe area are wire connections
    Once connected will open your front bonnet
    Now you can access the 12 volt battery once it is charged
    You can lock/ unlock will be back in action

      @@stephanievasquez6374 Well, The information I gave you is not quite correct. Last night I was testing out how to open the passenger door from the inside I pick up a passenger. I decided to run through the unlocking methods on my 2021 Y. If my car is set with “Driver Unlock Mode” then I can only unlock my driver door via Bluetooth as I approach the car with my phone. The rear passenger did not unlock others. If I turn “Driver Unlock Mode” off then I can open any of the 4 doors and the trunk from the outside. Of course the latter that is not the safe mode when alone.

    A phone charger is not a solution because, of course, you would have already used it to charge your phone so that is not another way to access your Tesla. And chances are that if your phone is dead that you are not going to have that little cell phone charger with you because if you did, then your phone would already be working. Having one of those little power banks doesn't get you into your Tesla. It only gets you into your phone.
