Tesla Model Y Front Passenger Side Door Unlatches Hourly after updating to 2024.45.25.15

20250123 Resolution: Received a solution from Hansshow and implemented it which resolved the issue.

20250119 ​Minor update: It seems I have both Sentry Mode and ASS Standby Mode that work well to prevent the car from sleeping. 

​For my car Sentry mode consumes about .4% of my battery per hour and ASS Standby Mode consumes about .38% so both are the same in consuming about 10% of my battery per day.

I took the further step of unchecking (disabling) TeslaFi’s setting to attempt to allow sleep mode. 

Now just waiting on a response from Hansshow.

20250118 Addendum: This issue does NOT happen when the car is in Sentry mode. It appears to happen when the car is asleep.

Original Post:

First let me say that the new FSD 12.6.1 is an unbelievable improvement over even 12.5.x!

BUT, I updated to 2024.45.25.15 (FSD 12.6.1) early yesterday morning (January 17). A few hours later my wife came to tell me that the passenger side door was open.
So I closed the door after some brief troubleshooting and we took the car out to a park for a hike, then had some lunch (car in a busy parking lot) then shopped at Costco. I have the Tesla settings configured to notify me if the doors or windows are open so I’m pretty sure nothing happened throughout the day.

But shortly after I got home the passenger door unlatched itself again.

The issue repeats approximately every hour.

Attached is a screenshot of the warning notifications I’m seeing from Tesla’s notification panel. It is thinking that someone is opening the door using the manual unlatch mechanism (that I consider for emergencies only).

So I have updated the settings to send me a notification that the door is open when I’m at home (it was always set to do this but just not when at home).

Below is what I have and what I’ve tried. The most obvious culprit would seem to be the auto presenting doors, but they don’t just unlatch the door, they actually open and close it, plus there has never been an issue in the 10 months they’ve been installed. The issue absolutely *did* begin within a couple of hours after updating to 2024.45.25.15. Not saying they can’t be involved but it seems it would need to be a multi-factor cause in that case.

I have reached out to Hansshow and am reaching out to Tesla, but I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this kind of issue since the update?

For context:

  • Tesla Model Y 2023 (HW3)​
  • Hansshow Auto Presenting Doors (V2) both Driver and Passenger side​
  • S3XY Buttons​

I’ve tried:

  • Removing the Tesla app from my iPhone, hard resetting the iPhone and then re-installing the Tesla App.
  • Disabling S3XY buttons (Disconnected the Commander module)
  • Soft resetting the car (Pressing both Scroll Wheels)
  • Hard resetting the car (Power off, wait 3 minutes)
  • Disabling the Hanshaw Auto Presenting doors (Turns off the feature, physical disconnect is pretty involved)
  • Factory resetting the Hansshow Auto Presenting doors (3 times as I try different settings)
