2014 S Charging Port Won't Open

[Steve Daniel]

Well. I found the answer, and it's embarrassing. Where the magnet connection is on the charge door, a dead moth was crushed there. When I cleaned that off, the charger door is now working properly. I apologize for wasting you're time for such an easy fix.

Glad you fixed the bug that was causing the problem.

Yours is change, isn’t? Mine looks like this and it’s not adjustable. Also changed to motorised version. To the OP, if you have no functions on the door then there might be malfunction on it. The door is separate unit, functioning together with the charge port. It usually should generate corresponding error too. If you know that you have manual door then there is no worries to pry it open. If you have any resistance on the door (motorised version) then you might damage that hinge part.

Mine looks exactly the same as yours. At least on mine, that little button on the left side can be turned counter clockwise to extend it outwards, or further in if you turn it clockwise.
