problems with openTrunk and setTemps

[Langer75]

Hi, I am new with Tesla and I got nearly all function running with my Model 3. Two function will not work as expected:

openTrunk. it is stated that no commandArgs are necessary. How can I distingush between trunk and frunk? I read in the tesla.js github project that it was changed to "rear" and "front" But how can I pass these parameters to openTrunk. Currently it does not work at all.

With set Temp I have the effect that it does not matter whether I pass cammandArgs.driver or commandArgs.pass to setTemps. Both values are changed to the same value. Is this a bug or did I something wrong?

Thanks for your help

Ok, I solved the openTrunk problem. But the setTemps problem I can not figure out the problem. Does anybody has the same problem?

[onokje]

I will look into it.

[TomNijsen]

How did you solve the openTrunk problem? What exact syntax for the commandArgs did you use?

[andijegg]

I have also the Problem with the open Trunk and Frunk command. Debug give back "invalid_value" what is the right value.

1 or true didn't work

[Langer75]

Hi folks

in tesla.js the line around 90 (openTrunk) has to be adapted. I deleted the line and added the following:
case 'openFrunk': return tjs.openTrunkAsync({authToken, vehicleID}, "front");
case 'openTrunk': return tjs.openTrunkAsync({authToken, vehicleID}, "rear");
After this it should work. No parameters, just use the command "openTrunk" or "openFrunk"

[andijegg]

Thanks, I'll try this.

@Langer75 Thanks, this worked for me!

@onokje - Would you like a pull request for this (the Frunk and Trunk issue)?

[Langer75]

A last question on the setTemp driver and passanger issue (see first comment): It seems, that it does not work for a Model3. Can anybody confirm that. For wich model does it work?

@Langer75
I got the different temperatures working for my 2021 Y. The key is that you need to un-sync the temperatures in the car first ("Split" button).
I haven't seen an API call to do this, but I may have just missed it.

Hi, I tried it, but for me it didn't worked... Any Ideas

[Langer75]

In the current Version openTrunk and openFrunc lines are already there. But the parameters have to be adapted (front and rear)

[andijegg]

I've adapted the parameters to "front" and "rear", but it does not work at al

[ianwitherow]

@andijegg
Can you try calling openTrunkAsync from the TeslaJS library directly (outside of node-red)? Make sure to use "front" and "rear" there too despite the documentation. Or try both variations!

Just curious if your issue is with the TeslaJS library instead of this one.

I don't know how to do this... sry

[ianwitherow]

@andijegg Gotcha, well just out of curiosity - do other calls from node-red work? Can you open the charge port for instance?
Also, did you restart your node-red instance after updating the tesla.js file?

[andijegg]

Yes other work. Open/Close Car Open Charge Port etc.

And yes I've restarted the node-red instance after updating the tesla.js file.

[ianwitherow]

@andijegg Anything appear in a debug message payload from the openFrunk node?

Example:

[andijegg]

Yes the same as in the Picture above.

„false“ and „invalide_value“

[ianwitherow]

It must not be picking up the change you made. What's the file path of your tesla.js that you edited?

[andijegg]

/home/pi/node_modules/node-red-contrib-tesla/tesla.js

[ianwitherow]

Kind of a long shot here, but from your home directory, what do you see when you run:

find . -name 'tesla.js'

Just that one file? Or does it find another?
If you look in the file, does it still have your changes ("front" and "rear")? Or did it revert?

[andijegg]

It finds two...

./.node-red/node_modules/node-red-contrib-tesla/src/tesla.js
./node_modules/node-red-contrib-tesla/tesla.js
./node_modules/node-red-contrib-tesla/src/tesla.js

[ianwitherow]

Ah, alright - the one you want is that first one: ./.node-red/node_modules/node-red-contrib-tesla/src/tesla.js
Make the edits there, restart node-red, and it should work.

[andijegg]

both files have the "front" "rear" edit, I've just checked it...

[ianwitherow]

Hm, must be symlinked. Can you reboot the whole machine just to make sure the instance is being restarted? Everything looks fine, not sure what else to suggest here.

[andijegg]

I‘ll try a restart and report the result

[andijegg]

There was 3 files... my fault, in the third file, were still the old paterns. I changed it an now it works fine... Thank you for the help!

[ianwitherow]

Hah, I almost asked about that one too.. Glad to hear it's working!
