Alert type breakdown
Tesla BC code list
Rows with a linked code have a dedicated detail page.
| Code | Severity | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC_w001 BC_w001_leftIndicatorFail | Warning | Warning | BC_w001 - left Indicator Fail Tesla warning code in the BC (BC) module. The left indicator is not functioning as expected and may be flashing faster than normal. If a fault (open, short, over-current..etc) is detected on any of the driven lamp outputs required for signaling (which will be different for each vehicle region), then the frequency of the flashing signal sent by the BCM to the turn signals is intentionally doubled in speed to indicate an issue. The vehicle can only determine if the issue is for the left or right indicator. It cannot determine if the issue is in the front or rear indicator, so they both must be checked. |
| BC_w002 BC_w002_rightIndicatorFail | Warning | Warning | BC_w002 - right Indicator Fail Tesla warning code in the BC (BC) module. The right indicator is not functioning as expected and may be flashing faster than normal. If a fault (open, short, over-current..etc) is detected on any of the driven lamp outputs required for signaling (which will be different for each vehicle region), then the frequency of the flashing signal sent by the BCM to the turn signals is intentionally doubled in speed to indicate an issue.
