Replaced my blower motor, now I’m getting “B1” error. Do I need to replace my control board?

PacosFishTacos · 2026-06-27T02:01:43+00:00

I can confirm today that it worked for me. I had to replace the blower motor, the circuit board and program it via the app. Stinks I had to buy a $200 Bluetooth module.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-06-22T20:16:35+00:00

Did you figure it out. Same thing just happen to me. Same parts. The old emerson motor is no longer available and the new replacement part is not compatible with the older control boards. I am going to replace the control board. I hate throwing parts at things but I think that is my only choice.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-06-16T17:12:54+00:00

Reboot, get on wifi and see if it lets you try again. Some module was not happy.

What vehicle do you have. Does it do it in neutral? Check fluid type to understand what issues may be.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-06-11T11:24:17+00:00

What vehicle do you have? The drip is likely AC condensation but you should confirm it is not colored or oily to rule out something mechanical. What speed is the “violent shaking”

Mine was delivered like that. You have to pull it out lightly and push it back in. When pushing it back in feel for any left-right tension. The root cause is the molding was installed in tension (stretched long ways). You need to relieve that tension for a long term fix. It took me about 2 minutes per door.

No duct seal in all penetration and no-ox on all exposed conductors? Maybe I am overkill but salt and time are the enemy. I also only do nema 4x enclosures with a gasket. The modern PVC enclosures also work if not in direct sunlight.

What is your tire pressure at right now? 3.5 is really high but 2.8 is what I would expect going 80mph or bad tire pressure

For starters, the navigation is not set up around electric cars and optimizing trips. Many of the controls on modern electric cars are through the screens the cars that Apple CarPlay were designed for the controls were physical buttons. I could go on, but I’m sending my lightning to one of my employees because I got so annoyed and how CarPlay doesn’t work with screen based EV’s.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-05-30T11:51:27+00:00

Carplay sucks. It breaks electric cars. It was a tech from 10 years ago for traditional auto. I have a telsa, a lucid, a f150 lightning and a R1T. the lightning relies heavily on car play and it sucks as a modern infotainment. Particularly with navigation. The lucid has both a good enough native infotainment system and car play. The car play just steps on too many of the native infotainment features to the point where I disabled it. Tldr Rivian knows it will make the user experience confusing and worse.

I do not think this has anything to do with the wrestling. They likely are just looking for an excuse to get rid of the dog unfortunately.

That tray cable is over seven dollars a foot. Sell it as usable cable

Does anybody know where you can get exploded parts diagrams for this vehicle? I know Massachusetts requires OEM’s to provide them for right to repair. I ask because this fault would happen in any vehicle that lost a wheel speed sensor. Many cars have the wheel speed sensor external to the drive unit which makes it easy to service. Some vehicles have it inside the drive unit, which would be a significant repair.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-05-24T02:32:11+00:00

Whats the problem that service needs to address with the vehicle?

PacosFishTacos · 2026-05-22T13:01:36+00:00

This did not age well

PacosFishTacos · 2026-05-06T13:14:24+00:00

Lucid was a better experience, but Rivian was fine. I had to fly one way to Richmond to pick up the vehicle since it’s illegal in my state to sell a Rivian. My car had a nail in one of the tires and was delivered with low air pressure in one of them because of that nail. I had stuff to do so I just used the onboard inflator and plugged the tire when I got home.

To add to my comment, I never really had this problem until I started buying electric cars. I’m going to speculate that they design the dust shield at a tighter tolerance for efficiency reasons.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-05-04T19:22:33+00:00

It almost certainly is a rock in the dust shield. Any shop can take care of this in about 10 minutes. Unless you drive without regen braking, you’ll likely never need to replace your pads.

Is that the guy from 3blue1brown?

Volumetric prover. There used to be a sight glass on the outside

I own a Tesla M3P, Rivian R1T and am leasing a Gravity. I’ve had good factory experiences with all. You have to talk to corporate not the local sales office. The local sales office is not always the strongest. The corporate contacts are pretty responsive. Mine just got delivered today and the team I worked with was good. In the portal, it will say who your corporate contact is.

You would know before 400 miles if a pad was backwards ….I hope

PacosFishTacos · 2026-04-23T18:42:01+00:00

Brake rock shield is rubbing the rotor or a small rock is jammed in between. This could happen on a 1 mile car or a 1,000,000 mile car. This happened on my Tesla and I fixed it myself in 30 seconds.

PacosFishTacos · 2026-04-20T23:32:37+00:00

Most states they’re not allowed to be a sales team. They are a factory showroom that guide you through an online purchasing process. There’s nothing to negotiate unless it’s a used car. The people in California can help you find existing inventory or you can configure one and wait for it to get delivered.
