Why does the exact Tesla alert ID matter?

Record the exact alert ID, including underscores, suffixes, and companion alerts. Tesla alerts that look similar can point to different modules, timestamps, and service procedures.

What does BMS-F030 mean?

Tesla fault code in the Battery Management System (BMS) module. The battery management system (BMS) has detected that the charge port door is open or the fast charge (FC) contactors are welded. If this alert is present, the high voltage (HV) contactors will be prevented from closing. This means the HV system will not be exposed to the current if the FC contactors are welded or the charge port door is open.
