We've had 2 of the first gen HPWCs for years (since about late 2012 IIRC). Recently (last month), one of them failed and the contactor would no longer close to start the charge. Was a very odd situation, but in the end I moved on since Tesla replaced it anyway.
Fast forward to Friday, we bring home a new 100D X, and as soon as we plug in to the older HPWC, we hear some clicking and then the cylon eye turns red. No amount of resetting does a thing.
We swapped garage positions today, and that same HPWC will charge my 2012 Model S with no issue, and the newer HPWC we received last month will charge the new X with no issue.
Is there a change in the newer Model Xs that make them incompatible with the older HPWCs? Could it have something to do with the onboard charger? We recently switched Xs because the other only had the 48A onboard charger. That one charged on the Gen 1 HPWC, so I'm wondering if it has something to do with the 72A onboard charger?
