hi everyone,
I’ve had a chargepoint home charger and my M3 since mid July and everything has been going fine, however about 1-2 weeks ago I’ve started having issues.
My chargepoint Home is connected to WiFi and looks up charge times from my electric company. Based on this it charges starting at 11pm to get the cheapest rate. I have the scheduling disabled in my Tesla.
This was all working great but now I find that the car never starts charging at 11pm.
I played around with it this morning and found that even if I tried to override the charging and say “charge now” when I wake up it doesn’t start, until i open the M3 front door.
It’s almost like the car now goes to sleep and therefore won’t start charging when the home charger tries to start it up hours after it’s been plugged in.
I’m not sure if this is a bug in the chargepoint home, a but in the latest M3 software, or a HW problem.
Anyone else seeing this issue ?
(Note, tonight I will disable the scheduling on chargepoint and try using the scheduling on the M3, however this isn’t a great long term answer since the M3 has only a single charge schedule and not one per day)
