I now think I was mistaken about some of the outlets providing fewer than 12 Amps. I discovered that I will reliably trip the GFCI, even if I've dialed the amperage down to 5, if I plug the cable into the car first and the outlet second. If I plug into the wall first all is well. There's...

Whether dangerous or not, I agree that this is a design flaw. The designer's goal is to make the vehicle's functions as straightforward to use as possible and to avoid having similar actions produce dissimilar effects. ICE vehicles have over a century of experience and user expectations built...

Thanks for all the replies! I think I figured out what's going on. Some of the outlets can deliver at least 12 AMPs, some a little less. When I plug into one of the "a little less" outlets the car quickly trips the GFCI in the outlet. If I use the touchscreen to lower the amperage draw to 10W...

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll make a note of the exact error message and also try manually reducing the amperage and report back on both.

I park in a communal garage with a dozen or so standard outlets. I can charge my Model 3 successfully at two of them - I get about 4 miles of range per hour. For the others, the car complains that charging is not possible. I've measured the voltage for the working and non-working outlets - both...
