M3 randomly stops charging at home?

[phishphan]

We plug it in, it charges and then stops at some point. Once I check the app and click start charging it resumes. Any need to worry about this? It started happening about two weeks ago.

Make sure you don't have scheduled charging or departure enabled
If using Tesla wall connector, use an app to see what's happening during charging: iOS or Android
If using mobile connector, review the troubleshooting status light section in the manual
If using mobile connector, try using a different outlet to rule out a bad outlet
If using mobile connector, maybe the unit is bad, try to borrow someone else's to test

I had a problem with the charge failing to start. It would connect to the car for just a few seconds then stop. Eventually it would start. Couldn't figure out the problem. This started after one of the car software updates. So then I decided to log into my Tesla Wall Connector. Checked for a firmware update, there was none. But I had set the Wall Connector to 'charge only Tesla.' Not sure why I set that, but I changed it to 'charge any car' and the problem went away. It seemed after a software update the handshake between the M3 and the Wall Connector got messed up. Not saying this is your problem but worth looking at.

Scheduled charging was the culprit even though I never knowingly set it to that due to a flat rate where we live. Thank you!

There is a thread here I remember about that specific app. TL ; DR this app seems to interact with charging and can be the culprit for charging anomalies.

EV.Energy app may stop your home charging

September 24, 2022 Good Morning: I used this EV.Energy app for my iPhone. I had issues correlating the EV.Energy numbers with the actual charges being delivered so I deleted the app. The app started shutting down my Tesla’s ability to home charge. Tesla spent thousands changing out my...
