I've never left my car in storage mode before, but am testing something out right now. I've got it plugged in, and every night at 10 I get an 1173 warning ("To gain the advantages of storage mode, car must be plugged in"). OVMS shows it plugged int, shows some voltage/amperage being delivered for a second, then it stops and goes back to 0V/0A.
I've successfully forced the car to start charging, at which point I got error 934 ("DMC FW: Line OverCurrent Peak fault"), but the car did start charging. I've had trouble with my 120v cable before, but have only ever tried it on one outlet (it's now on a different one), and it seemed to heat up and then stop charging after a while.
I first plugged the car in at 44%, but it gave me that warning and wouldn't actually charge. Now it's down to 30%, and still gives me the 1173 warning every night. What I'm wondering is: what percentage does the car actually maintain itself at? I thought it maintained at 50%-ish, but is it 30, or 20 or something instead? If the problem is the cable, then I'm probably just going to buy a new one, but don't want to buy a new one if the cable isn't the issue. Given that I can manually start charging, it feels like the cable isn't the issue, but I don't know.
