Unable to Wake
Your Tesla wakes up by Tesla sending it a text message.
How long the vehicle takes to receive the text message and wake up depends on the individual vehicle and the local cellular reception.
Fix wake errors
There are a few things you can do:
- Pair Phone Key which will allow the vehicle to wake over Bluetooth.
- Restart the vehicle to fix any temporary issue.
- Disconnect from WiFi and let the vehicle rely on a cellular connection.
- Improve the cellular reception by parking in a different location.
In rare instances, the vehicle may need a new 12V battery or connectivity board. Tesla Service can help diagnose and replace these items.
