Has anyone managed to charge an Opel Mokka-e with a Tesla UMC Gen2?
I took our spare gen2 UMC that has never been used, which I purchased from Tesla UK with a Schuko (EU plug) adapter.
Upon connecting the type 2 connector on the UMC to the Type 2 plug on the rented Opel Mokka-e, the car recognises it’s plugged in (small red indicator on drivers display lights up) and briefly (for a second or two only) flashes “charging rate” information, before almost immediately changing to “charging finished”.
The Tesla charger does not make the usual relay/contactor click that you’d expect after being plugged into the car. The lights on the charger stay green (no scrolling effect to say it’s charging - just steady on - no red to indicate a fault).
Normally the Mokka shows a green light in the charge port bay when charging, blue for delayed charging and white for ready - but it remains white. I don’t have another car to try it on, but the Mokka charges happily on a single phase wall charger (supplying ~6kW) and on a 22kW type 2 where it has been accepting about 14kW.
Have tried a couple of different outlets and at a different house. With and without extension cord. Same no luck.
Earth and neutral are connected inside the wall plug sockets here.
I’m pretty much at the end of what I can fathom might be causing it not to work unless there are some kind of comms between the car and charger that aren’t happening?
Any bright ideas?
