I’ve been having increasing problems charging at home after no problems for over 16months.
I have a 240V 30 A circuit where I plug the Tesla Mobil charge cable. I generally have it scheduled for 10pm but only need to charge ever other day (when I’m under 45%) in my M3 LR RWD.
In the last few months I'v had increasing trouble initiating charging at times other than at the scheduled time. For instance if I go plug in the cable later in the evening and try to start it will indicate it’s charging (with green lights blinking on port and wall charger), but it is not charging (0 kW, 0A, 240V) on the screen. I get a text message on my cell after 10 min that charge was interrupted.
When I look at the port then, the “T” is red.
After communicating with Tesla svc, they suggested I turn off the schedule, and remove any 3rd party apps. I did all this, as well as change my Tesla password. But I’m still having issues that seem to be temporal. I can nearly ALWAY initiate home charging in the AM, but not in the evening.
We’re NOT having brownouts or outages in the house. The wall outlet tests appropriately at about 240. We have no TV or electronics that are starting or stopping routinely.
I’m keeping a log and last night I went to test it out so I have a record when I go for service in a few weeks. It then DID charge in the evening, when I had expected a failure. What the heck!!
Anyone? I have a friend who’s going to loan me his mobile charge cable to test out, but it hasn’t happened yet.
