Tesla Optimus Error Codes
No public error-code reference has been published for the Tesla Optimus. Tesla hasn't released fault tables, diagnostic-code lists, or troubleshooting flowcharts — so there's no official document to link to, and we won't invent codes.
What we can tell you from owner experience: most humanoid faults cluster in a few families — joint torque faults under load, battery/charging faults, IMU and sensor errors, and communication dropouts between joint controllers. The setup notes below describe the failure modes actually reported for this model.
What this document covers
- ✓Fault-code tables with causes and recommended actions
- ✓LED and status-indicator patterns during boot and faults
- ✓Joint torque faults: distinguishing calibration drift from hardware failure
- ✓Battery, charging, and power-distribution fault behavior
- ✓IMU, encoder, and sensor error handling
- ✓Safe recovery: reboot sequences, factory reset, and when to stop and call support
Official error codes & troubleshooting guide
