Charging started then stops , mobile connector

[Alluck]

Hi folks

It goes from starting to charge to parked when plugged in using the mobile connector .

Everything was fine before this came out of the blue ?

Is there any error conditions appearing, on the charge port, in the car, on the module on the mobile connector?

Have you tried the car or the mobile connector anywhere else?

I had this problem a few years back. Turned out the the wiring/plug box hardware in the 240 v plug was getting too old (after ~10 years of no problems), and causing the safety sensor in charger to trip. It was intermittent but after several times of waking up to a partially charged car, I replaced with a hardwired Tesla wall charger and no problems since.

The mobile charger/ standard 240 plug is apparently not designed for repeated long term use, especially with multi hour charging sessions.

More likely the outlet was not designed for having a plug inserted and removed daily. That is to say your mobile charger plug is probably fine, but the outlet you bypassed by installing a wall charger was likely your problem. My understanding is that there are outlets made for this, but they are significantly more expensive. OP could have the same problem, though. I would expect some error/log to help confirm if that were the case, but presumably you weren't getting one?

If the outlet is a Leviton that is most likely the problem. You need a Bryant or Hubbell outlet, about $80. Make sure the connections are properly torqued.
