Yeah, there was a chip shortage, so some cars got the stripped ECU and others didn't, sometimes cars delivered the same week will be different in whether or not they support CCS. So it was very much a crapshoot for some months.
Also interesting that there are two retrofit part numbers that showed up in the parts catalog for the 3/Y, one that specific to the 3 (I'm guessing older cars with the gen 3 charge port and ECU), and another that works for some 3's and Y's (I'm guessing gen 4 charge port / ecu with stripped ECU).
Tesla launched a new CCS1 adapter in South Korea last year, announcing shortly thereafter that it would eventually be coming to North America. In preparation for that launch, Tesla added new information to the in-car […]
FYI - aside from the website accepting (or rejecting) the purchase of the CCS adapter, you can also check compatibility from within your car: go in the Software tab and press 'Additional vehicle information' to see if you have built-in CCS support:
So apparently you can add a CCS adapter to your cart by using your browser's developer tools, inspecting the grayed out button, and deleting the disabled="disabled" bit. Well, I managed to order one at any rate. Here's hoping they don't cancel it Also here's hoping I can get an ECU.
So my local service center had a gen 4 charge port ecu (1537264-00-B) in stock, picked that up today. So with any luck I'll have CCS by next weekend's planned road trip !
If you have a local friend with an eligible Tesla in their account - or an ineligible one and a willingness to un-disable the add to cart button - you could have them order it for you. It doesn't seem to be limiting the total number you can order as long as you only do one adapter per order. At least, it lets me add one to cart right now even though I have one on the way.
For what it's worth, my car is now showing eligible on the Tesla page since updating my charge port ECU yesterday.
Having this adapter in the car helped me and other Model 3 driver to avoid being stuck in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma yesterday, where not much of superchargers. Local energy provider Francis Energy building its own fast-charging network across the state there, which is quite good I would say.
