To test your Tesla’s battery health, go to the High Voltage menu and choose ‘Health Test’ under ‘HV Battery.’ This in-depth test in Service Mode may take up to 24 hours or more based on your charging setup. Ensure your vehicle is plugged in and not connected to a Supercharger during the test.
Another effective method is charging the battery to 100% and monitoring its performance over several cycles. Use a smartphone app or built-in feature to track how quickly the charge depletes. Regularly updating your vehicle’s software can also enhance battery management, so keep your Tesla updated.
Consider external factors that may impact battery health, such as extreme temperatures and charging habits. Avoid frequent supercharging, as it can accelerate wear. Instead, charge at home whenever possible and maintain a battery level between 20% and 80%.
Taking these quick steps helps you test your Tesla battery health accurately. Proper maintenance and monitoring can extend your battery’s lifespan. Next, explore the best practices for charging and caring for your Tesla battery to further improve its durability and efficiency.
