Team,
Looking to pick your collective brains on this one. Tesla has kindly allowed me to do an "overnight" with a P100D loaner (good lordy this thing is fast)... When I got the car they didn't provide any adapters or a mobile charger....
Luckily I have mine at home. I have two 14-50 plugs in my carport and one mobile charger circa 2013 (came with my P85).
The problem I'm running into is that when the P100D tries to charge, it seems to not want to honor the max amps I dial in... No matter how low I set it (even down to max of 5A), as soon as it starts to draw power, my circuit breaker pops. This happens on BOTH 14-50 outlets.
Out of curiosity and to rule out the on-board chargers as being the issue, I took it down to a local destination charger that delivered the full 72A on 3phase power. I just can't for the life of me get this thing to charge on mine at home.. Any thoughts?
I ran into this same issue with a P100D MX I had months back. I remember calling customer support and they walked me through a procedure and we got around the issue. I called them last night on this P100D MS and they had me power off the car, wait 2mins then try again. We did this 2-3x and it failed each time...
Since I'm unable to charge the car, I'm hesitant to really get it out on the road and try out both the performance and/or AP2.0... Damn shame. I have enough to get me to work and then back to Tesla to drop off but so much for getting it out tonight and really having some fun... Thoughts on anything else I can try?
