Depending on market region, configuration, and manufacture date, your vehicle may not be equipped with a tonneau cover, associated controls, or under bed storage compartment.

Troubleshooting the Tonneau Cover

The tonneau cover does not open or close when:
  • Cybertruck is locked, or is not in Park.
  • There is an obstacle blocking the tonneau cover from closing. In this case, remove the object and try again.

    Warning
    Although the tonneau cover is designed to stop moving if it detects an obstacle when closing, do not rely on the tonneau cover to prevent damage or injury.
  • Cybertruck has no low voltage power. In this case, it is necessary to open the powered frunk before attempting to jump start Cybertruck. For more information, see Jump Starting.

Note
The tonneau cover locks into place (whether opened or closed) when Walk-Away Door Lock is enabled. Always double check that the tonneau cover is closed, or intentionally left open, before walking away from your vehicle. Car Left Open Notifications may not notify you if the tonneau cover is left open.
If the tonneau cover does not open or close as expected:
  1. Make sure that Cybertruck is unlocked and in Park.
  2. Wait several minutes and then try again.
  3. Inspect the tracks to ensure there's no debris or object in the way of the tonneau cover.
  4. Calibrate the tonneau cover:
    • Touch Calibrate on the touchscreen (on the exterior view of the vehicle, where you would normally touch to open or close the tonneau cover) and follow the onscreen instructions.

      Note
      The Calibrate option only appears on the touchscreen when the tonneau cover needs to be calibrated.
    • Or, to calibrate the tonneau cover manually: Press and hold the Open button (1) until the cover is fully open and wait for it to stall. Then, press and hold the Close button (2) until the cover is fully closed and stalled.

If the tonneau cover still does not function as expected, schedule a Service appointment.
