We recently purchased a 2018 Model 3 Mid Range used from Shift. The car did not come with the stock Tesla charger but some generic brand only capable of 16amp charging. I placed an order for a Gen 2 Mobile Connector and the NEMA 14-50 adapter as I have an outlet in the garage.
We have a Volt that has been using the outlet with no problems and while waiting for the Tesla cord, we have been sharing the plug without issue and have used a Supercharger to supplement.
The cord arrived and we plugged in the Tesla, everything was good and it was charging at 32 amps. Within a few minutes we had an error and the charger was solid red. We unplugged and plugged it in again, started charging only to stop again in a few minutes.
Thinking it could be the splitter I had set up, we removed that and again the charger stopped after a few minutes. We removed the NEMA 14-50 adapter and went back to standard plug… again, same issue.
At this point I think it must be the mobile adapter but was told it may be an issue with my electrical panel. Anyone have any insight? Tips? Etc?
