    Moving with Wall Connector

    I am moving and will take the WC with me. After the uninstall (and installing the wire nuts on the 3 6 gauge wires), I was wondering if it is necessary to get one of those electrical boxes and place the wires in there (vs just pushing them back into the wall) before putting on a blank wall...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector No Light

    Hi everyone, I am having a reoccurring issue and need some thoughts. I got my Gen 3 wall connector installed by an electrician and after about 2 days of using the charger, the charger would not light up. I assumed it was a power supply issue so my electrician came back and swore that the...

    Home Gen3 Charger - Set Breaker Size

    Hi Everyone! I just had a gen 3 wall charger installed but was left to setup it on on my wifi etc. I have successfully added the charger but never got asked what size breaker the charger is on. I know it’s on a 40amp but I don’t know if the charger knows that? How do I set this or do I even...

    Wall Connector and Android App - Not very useful

    The Tesla App on my Android phone updated this week to add WC Gen 3 support. With a little help from Tesla support, I added my WC as one of my products. My WC now shows up in the app, but the charge history doesn't work. It shows that my car is plugged in with the name of the car, so it appears...

First few weeks it was fine, then I noticed three blinking lights and it forcing itself to charge with lower amperage (I live in Tennessee, it can get very hot and humid so I didn't think too...

    Hi, For those of you who bought your Tesla Gen3 Wall Connector from the Australia Tesla Shop, I'm wondering where the item is being shipped from. Tracking it on the AusPost app, it says "From: BTi Logistics Center". Is it coming from overseas or is it local? How long did it take for it to be...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector Housing Warm...normal?

    Have owned my MYP for about 3 weeks now. Charging on Gen 3 Wall Connector, professionally installed on a 50A breaker, charging at 38A. I have noticed that the housing (part which connects to the wall) is pretty warm during and after charges, especially long ones. It isn't searing hot, but it...

    Installing Wall Connector is better than NEMA 14-50

    I bought a new Model Y recently and was planning to install NEMA 14-50 Receptacle for the Mobile charger. I saw many posts and youtube videos regarding this. Now, it looks like a wall connector is the best option to install. For Installing NEMA Outlet for Mobile Charger - I have to buy NEMA...

    Wall connector not recording as “Home Charging”

    So I just installed a wall connector in my garage and everything works fine except my app does not seem to recognize that the wall connector is in my house and when I use it to charge, the app registers it as “Other” and calculates the usage and pricing incorrectly. I can’t find a way to fix...

    Gen 3 charger not charging after outage

    I purchased a Gen 3 charger and had it installed on the Controlled Load 1 circuit so that I could charge the car overnight when off-peak rates kick in about 12.30am and turn off at 7am. In Australia, electricity only runs through that circuit during these times. Unfortunately, the charger does...

    Hi there, I recently had a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed for my plug-in wall connector and the wall connector unfortunately malfunctioned, but was under warranty so Tesla sent me a brand new Gen 3 Wall Connector. Instead of bringing my electrician back out to re-wire it, I would rather have the...

    Gen3 Wall Connector API?

    I noticed that the Gen 3 wall connector responds to most URLs (example http://<ip address>/status) with a 404, but noticed that if I try something like this: http://<ip address>/api/1/status I get no response. I'm wondering if there is an API underneath this thing that can be polled. Just...

    Tesla Gen 3 Charger prone to overheating?

    Getting ready to install a Level 2 Charger for my Model Y SR in Souther California and the electrician recommended I save the $500 on the Gen 3 Tesla Charger and just install a Nema 14-50 outlet and with an adapter and use the mobile connector instead. He said he had a number of issues with the...

    Getting billed for using a normal looking wall connector?

    At an apartment complex, there are a bunch of wall connectors (like what is in the tesla store). They were free to charge on them for a few months. On my last visit, I was billed $1.50 to my Tesla account. Apparently these wall connectors are "destination chargers" now capable of billing. This...

    Gen3 Wall Connector Question - load sharing?

    About a year ago, I installed two Gen 3 wall connectors. Due to my (old) house's electrical panel, they are both on the same circuit breaker circuit. I'm *eagerly* awaiting the long-promised load sharing feature so I can start using the second wall connector. Otherwise, it's basically garage...

    Gen3 HPWC disassembly, with overheating issues explained!

    Caution: Wall of text ahead! So, I got a secondhand Gen3 HPWC (TPN:1457768-01-F) that had known issues at full power and of course ran it right up to 48 amps to see what she'd do(note it had updated firmware). For a little while it did 48 amps, but after a half hour in my 20f garage, it...

    Upgrade to Gen 3 Wall Connector firmware?

    I woke Wednesday morning to a notice that my 2021 Model 3 LR AWD did not charge over night. The message on the display said that the wall connector needed service. I connected to the wall connector hotspot and found a new question that wasn't there before - should the wall connector be allowed...

    Tesla Wall Connector FW 1.4.4

    I was getting the 3 flashing red lights (along with green stream while charging) on my wall connector. I called the support line (510-249-2490, option 2). They pushed a firmware update to it. It is now 1.4.4 and it looks like the interface changed a little. I held the button down for several...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector 3 red blinks fault code

    I am on my second Gen 3 Wall Connector/Charger. Purchased first one in June 2020. Wired to 60 amp breaker and delivered 48 amps 237 volts to vehicle. After 20-30 minutes it throttled back to 24 amps and was seeing an error code on LED lights (3 red blinks). Worked with Tesla support and they...

    Tesla wall connector gen3 overheating fix

    Just thought I’d put this here in case someone else runs into the issue with the latest gen 3 wall charger overheating (3 blinking red light) at 48amps. I called support and they had to force push a firmware update and that appeared to resolve the issue.

    What is the RS-485 port for on a Gen 3 Wall Connector?

    Just got my Wall Connector installed (finally!). Reading the manual in detail now that I've got it up & running.... I see on p. 10 of the manual that I've got an RS-485 port inside. I gather from reading here that the Gen 2 connectors used it for load sharing? (Which function is allegedly...

    Gen 3 Wall Charger - Power Sharing

For now, I'm just periodically connecting to the wall connector wifi SSID and checking to see if the...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector

    New Gen 3 Wall Connector will support Power Sharing with up to 16 units. I can see this being very beneficial for building out Destination Charging - during our trip to Wisconsin last month the hotel we stayed at in Oklahoma City had a number of Teslas rotate overnight thru their 3 chargers.
