Tesla Mobile Charger problems, potential problems?

[The_Observer]

Hey guys/gals,

Had a notification this morning from the app stating that my car stopped charging in the middle of the night, I checked the mobile charger, the light from the mobile charger isn't on. I replugged the 14-50 from the wall, it still doesn't light up.

I didn't do any other troubleshooting since I needed to go to work, I am probably going to do other troubleshooting such as flipping the circuit breaker, check the 14-50 plug with a multimeter, and tying the 5-15 120v plug instead. Any possible issues that might be happening? Any other troubleshooting that I should be doing? Thanks.

I'd start like you suggested - checking power to the outlet - assuming you know how to do so safely. I'd do the exact same next steps too.

Yup, you're on the right track.

If the breaker did trip, you'll want to spend time figuring out why it tripped and fix that problem before you trust using that circuit again.

If there's a GFCI between the outlet and the panel, then that should be the first thing you check.

Turns out it was some sort of bad wiring problems on my 14-50 plug from the screw up from the electrician that caused it to short. Another electrician came and fixed it with the help of my dad. Everything seems to work fine now, phew, no need to visit the supercharger.
