Product Specification
Your Tesla Model 3, Y, S, or X is a blend of advanced technology and sleek design. The 1500397 - 00 - F Hood Latch Lock Actuator Sensor is a crucial, yet often overlooked, component that ensures both the security and proper functioning of your vehicle's hood. This part is designed to work seamlessly with Model 3 from 2021 onwards, Model Y starting from 2020, and Model S and X models produced since 2021.
The actuator in this assembly is responsible for the physical movement that locks and unlocks your hood. When you use the key fob, touchscreen, or the interior release mechanism to open the hood, the actuator receives an electrical signal. It then springs into action, smoothly disengaging the latch, allowing you to open the hood with ease. On the flip side, when you close the hood, the actuator ensures the latch engages securely, keeping your hood firmly shut during driving. This precise operation is essential for safety, as a loose or malfunctioning hood could open unexpectedly while you're on the road.
The integrated sensor in the 1500397 - 00 - F constantly monitors the status of the hood latch. It communicates with your Tesla's onboard computer, providing real - time information on whether the hood is fully closed and locked. If the sensor detects that the hood is not properly latched, it will send a signal to the dashboard, triggering a visual warning. This is not only a safety feature but also helps protect your vehicle's delicate components under the hood from dust, debris, and even water in case of inclement weather.
If you press the hood release button on your key fob or touchscreen, and the hood fails to open, it could be a sign that the actuator is malfunctioning. A worn - out actuator may not receive or respond to the electrical signals properly, leaving you unable to access the components under the hood.
Receiving a "hood open" warning on your dashboard when the hood is clearly closed and latched indicates a problem with the sensor. A faulty sensor can misread the position of the latch, sending incorrect signals to the vehicle's computer and causing unnecessary alerts.
If you notice that your hood seems loose or makes rattling noises while driving, it might be due to a weak or malfunctioning latch. The actuator is responsible for ensuring a tight seal when the hood is closed. If it's not working correctly, the latch may not engage fully, resulting in a less - than - secure hood.
This hood latch lock actuator sensor is built to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) standards. It features a durable plastic housing that can withstand the vibrations and temperature variations experienced during driving. The internal components, such as the actuator motor and sensor contacts, are made from high - quality materials, ensuring long - term reliability.
Engineered specifically for Tesla Model 3/Y/S/X within the specified production years, the 1500397 - 00 - F offers a seamless fit. It comes with pre - drilled holes and the correct connector types, making installation a breeze. Whether you're a professional mechanic or a DIY - savvy Tesla owner, you can be confident that this part will integrate perfectly with your vehicle's existing hood latch system.
Before reaching the market, this component undergoes rigorous testing. It is tested for thousands of lock - and - unlock cycles to ensure the actuator doesn't wear out prematurely. The sensor is also calibrated to provide accurate readings in various environmental conditions, from extreme heat to freezing cold. This comprehensive testing process gives you peace of mind, knowing that you're investing in a product that will perform as expected.
