Supercharger - Bellevue, WA

[jsight]

It's just a bit of data mis-entry when they were putting it in the database. This happens occasionally with newly added stations. It'll get corrected within a few days or weeks.

That makes sense, just wondered if this might be a really odd exception. The temporary units use the same shells, afaik.

I sure miss our roadtrips to the greater Seattle area! We usually stay in Bellevue, so this is of course great news.

I wonder what will happen first: ownership of a MY for my partner and I, or the border reopening? Probably the former, if all goes to current plan.

Tried 2A and 4A today and could not activate and it shows temporary closure on the map. Parking gate is open. PlugShare shows last time someone successfully charged on 3/30 and for some reason now they are deactivated.

Still not live. See photo of dreaded 'black ring' 'ready to charge'. Also, and maybe someone already mentioned this- I haven't reviewed the whole thread- Tesla's onboard nav app routes you around the corner to a service entrance on NE 1st St. Wrong garage. You access this garage from (southbound!) Bellevue Way NE only

Please update to Temporarily Closed.

Checked on Friday 4/9/21. No power. Marked on car display with red icon with lightning bolt and not listing available number of stalls. Sometimes it will be grey icon with notation off line. I guess I’m wasting my time even stopping by when the lightning bolt is displayed but I’m bored.

Is there a way to report it to Tesla and find out what happened to this supercharger?

Are you guys sure it isn’t working? Did you try every stall? The Nav shows it as being open, even when you navigate to it. Did it ever show as closed in the Nav?

I’m out of town now or I’d check myself.

Nav shows as open, as does the Tesla app, but unlike other SCs it doesn't show an active stall count -- that's the giveaway. When you plug in nothing happens, and clicking the charger doesn't open the charger port. I've tried 1A and 2A, and it looks like others have tried multiple other stalls without luck.

I see it periodically flip to offline and then back to online (without stall info) periodically, sometimes multiple times in the same day.

Definitely doesn't sound like it's working, but I disagree about the "giveaway." I've seen superchargers working fine when they didn't have stall information in the Nav.

Just chatted with the customer support about this supercharger. Unfortunately it is waiting for repairs and no estimated time for completion. For some reason it is not connected to the supercharging network, that’s why its status is not updated on our vehicle map.

I’ve plugged in last Friday, nada.

As of today the in car nav and app show 8 stalls and the context kWh limit. Haven’t been able to make it there to plug in but looks promising.

I was in the area and swung by, I was able to charge from 75% -> 90% just fine. There was some activity/testing by some Tesla employees while I was there.

Good to know!

Did it show the number of available stalls when you charged?

Yes it did.

 

[jhei]

Yes it did.

That’s great. I will give it a try this weekend.

This one appears to be working again. Appears to be no charge to park in this garage, at least for the time being.

Be careful when grabbing the charge cable. It's very easy to skin the back of your hand on the concrete wall. They really should have put some adhesive padding there. Poor design.

I also noticed the cell service there is pretty poor. I'm guessing the Supercharger itself may connect to the network via Wifi. I had a hard time checking on my car via the app as it wasn't able to reliably connect to the vehicle.

Just a heads up if you plan to stop in and watch Netflix in the car, might not be able to stream too well.
