If you're using a HPWC, there is a button on the wand piece. If you press that it will stop charging, light goes white and you can unplug. At least for me, the disconnect window is pretty small (1-2 seconds). If I don't unplug it relocks.
From what I gather, this relies on the phone-as-key, so if it isn't working for you it could be that the car hasn't sensed the Bluetooth from your phone yet.
That only works if your model 3 is not asleep. If the car finished charging to the limit set, it will probably be asleep and you will have to open a door or trunk to wake it before you could press the button to unlock the handle. That's the way most of us has to unplug the car in the morning.
I don't remember having to do anything special to wake up the car to release the HPWC. The way my garage is setup I walk around from the passenger side, along the trunk, disconnect the charger, and go to the drivers door. So I'm sure there is no extra step for me required to wake it up.
I'm wondering if pressing the button can wake-up the car? Or perhaps since I typically have a persistent Bluetooth connection from my garage/car to the phone in the house, simply the car is not entering sleep.
Well there are a few threads on this. I am pretty sure for model 3, if the car is asleep, you can't unlock the handle from the charge port by pressing the button. Someone said you used to be able to when the car would "unlock" when your phone is close by. But now the car would only unlock when you open something. Are you running any 3rd party software that pulls data from the car and keeps it awake? Are you using a garage profile to turn off auto lock in the garage? Unless HPWC handle button works differently than UMC handle's button?
I'm not using anything special. But I suspect that the car is not going into a deep sleep because it almost always has a Bluetooth connection to my phone - when parked in the garage, and charging. So this is probably why the button to unlock the charger just works.
Thank you for the tip. It sounds practical. I will give a try tomorrow morning.You don't have to open a door or the trunk, you just have to press in the handle enough to wake up the car. As I walk by the car to get to the HPWC I press in on a handle enough to wake the car up, then by the time I get to the charge port, it responds to my pressing the button on the handle. Simply push on a handle enough so that you hear the car wake up without actually opening the door, it's a natural motion for me now - I do it without thinking, but it takes maybe 1/3" of pushing in to wake the car without opening the door.
