I found a couple of old threads, but old enough that I wanted to revisit this question...
My problem is that 90% of my charging is done at home, safely in my garage, with an AeroVironment EVSE that I originally had for my LEAF. It's really annoying to have to climb in the car to unlock the charging port to release the 1772 adapter.
Is there any way to set the car so that it does NOT lock the charging adapter? An even more optimal solution would be to tell the car "don't lock the adapter to the car when it's parked in my garage". The car can already prompt me with a homelink drop-down as I approach, so this seems like a feasible request.
That aside, anyone have thoughts on how I might prevent the adapter from being locked, or find some easy way to unlock it remotely?
