Did the light go out or did you have to take it in for service?

I didn't know you could have iTunes on a PC. I don't. I did put a few songs in a folder and gave the folder a name but the folder does not show up on the touchscreen so I have not been able to access the songs in it. I guess I will have to move the songs out of the folder and into the longer...

Thanks for those tips. It seems to be behaving better now. I have not had the "playing the same song over and over and can't turn it off" problem lately or the "can't control the volume with the steering wheel controls" problem. Once, while I was trying to select a song while driving, I got a...

Yes, that was very useful. Thank you. Would an Android phone work the same way (if you know)?

I expect that your instruction sheet will be useful to me after I get a smartphone and an adapter. It doesn't matter if the smartphone is Android or Apple does it? If you could post it here, many people could probably benefit and I could come back later to refer to it. Thank you in advance.

Thanks; your response has been very helpful. What I meant by "requires a smartphone" is that, if I am in an unfamiliar place, I expect it will be hard to find a public charger without one. Driving an ICE car long distances is stress-free because gas stations are so plentiful (although, I have...

Thanks again for more good info. It seems like long trips in any EV pretty much requires a smartphone to find public chargers now. Is a smartphone also required to pay for the charge? Does Tesla require me to set up an account with them that includes a method of payment before I can use a...

Thanks for that. Do Tesla Superchargers come in different power levels? I agree that it would be inappropriate (unless necessary) to use a 350kw Supercharger. Do charger-finding apps tell you the power level of the chargers they locate for you? Are some public chargers AC only? Apparently...

I expect it will go away soon. I think it is caused by getting an intermittent connection when reattaching the last connection to the battery (which should always be the negative). It needs to be firmly and quickly reattached but the sight of sparks and the sounds of clicking relays will make...

I am trying to learn about public charging because I may need it someday. I am confused by "Tesla + No Tesla Superchargers" in this sentence. Is it supposed to be "Tesla + Non-Tesla Superchargers"? My online searches seem to indicate that Tesla has a lock on (maybe copyrighted) "Supercharger"...

Recently, for the first time, I had a reason to stop an AC charging session at home and I was not sure how to do it. Usually, the charging session is over before I unplug the charging cord. I searched in the owners manual and I found a paragraph that said I could simply unplug the charging...

Cars get scratched. Scratches need to be repaired or the steel will rust. Owners need to know the paint code (I think) to buy the correct color touchup paint. I have searched all over my '23 Bolt EV and I did not find a paint code. I have read a few of the related threads here but I didn't...

Most DIYers can do most of the required maintenance. Discount Tires will rotate tires for free if you have been a customer there. The 2 big PITAs are changing the brake fluid (every 5 years) and changing the refrigerant desiccant (every 7 years). IMHO, 5 years is too long for brake fluid if...

I put some music on an SD card to play in my '23 Bolt EV 1LT. At first, it played the songs but not in the order in which I put them on the card. It seemed to be shuffling the songs since the genres were changing frequently but the shuffle button was not showing that shuffling was happening...

I bought a 2023 Bolt EV a few days ago and I don't understand how to interpret the theft-deterrent alarm status indicator (on the dash). I also don't understand why the alarm turns itself off sometimes. Page 19 of the manual says a slow flash indicates that the system is armed. When I pushed the...

A Bolt EV weighs about 12% more than a Cruze. It would be nice if wheels had their load limit stamped on them but I don't think that they do. Maybe you could research the load limit for those Cruze wheels to be sure they will be safe on a Bolt.
