Start Charging Error for a second!

[Samaksh99]

Charging question - I have noticed lately that every time I plug in the charger, the app instantly shows that the charging has stopped or sometimes Tesla start charging failed and after a couple of seconds, the charging starts. No error or FC’s on the screen. Any idea what’s wrong with it? Thanks!

Looks like you are using the Tesla wall charger. I'd log into the wall charger wifi and see if it is showing any errors. You might have a ground fault or something.

Check the charging port and charging connector for signs of dirt, corrosion or a broken or stuck insulator. Replace the charging equipment if the charging connector shows signs of damage.

Conduct a test by using the Mobile Connector or charging at a different location, (if public Level 2 charging station using the Tesla SAE J1772 adapter.) Try using a Supercharger for a short Supercharger charging session to check for any errors while using the Supercharger.

You can open a service request via the Tesla app if the charging port is faulty.

I'm having a similar issue. Gen 3 Wall charger. 2021 MY. 25,000 miles. Two weeks ago, after update 2022.36.2, The wall unit would charge for 3 to 5 minutes and stop. No alerts, no errors. I used my portable charger and it worked fine. Took a road trip to LA 1,000 miles round trip (no issues). Used my portable charger at the AirBB (no issues). Returned home - Gen 3 wall charger failed - used my portable and charged 60% no issues. 2022.40.4.1 was uploaded today to my Y along with a firmware update to my Wall unit (22.41.1). I'll report back tomorrow. I'm using the "Wall Monitor" App on my iPhone. Oh, I've done resets on both the Wall unit and my car.

My charger is back to being reliable. Programmed charging started at 12:01, last night, and charged uninterrupted to the set 80%. It started at 42%. Hopefully, the MY update (2022.40.4.1) or the Wall Unit firmware update (2.41.1) solved the charging issue(s) I experienced.

Just a follow-up of the follow-up. Last night charging started as scheduled and was completed, without stopping at 80% (was at 62%). I also did a quick 5% charge during off-peak - quickly charged the 5%. I'm assuming the issue was software related.
