Hello.
I have a 2020 Model 3, and have the official Tesla Wall Charger.
However my house temporarily has scaffolding on the outside whilst we do a loft conversion, as such the Tesla Wall Charger Cable length is now not quite long enough now to reach the car.
I had hoped to simply extend the Wall Charger cable, by using the official Tesla Cable supplied with the car for use with third party wall chargers.
The two cables fit neatly together and I can reach my car port ok. However despite this, there is no power sent down the newly extended cable to the car, and the car does not charge. The adaptor fits neatly in the charge port and locks in place, but no power delivery. Strange, as the Wall Charger does work normally just fine.
Is there anyway to resolve this? What Ideally do not want to to do is spend a couple of hundred pounds on another extension cable, given that the scaffolding in front of my house will be gone in about 2 months. Is there an adaptor available that would resolve the communication issue?
Hope you can help.
Many thanks
