Are you having trouble with Efacec chargers? (They tend to look like this: https://electricmobility.efacec.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/qc20-charger-1.png) If so, have you had any updates done by your dealer? A fix for Efacec incompatibility came out late last summer, and I believe it was a dealer-only installation. The 21P22 CSP would also have fixed this issue.
That's definitely the newer ABB charger. Lucky you! Also didn't know PnC worked with EVgo.I've used 2 different EVGo stations in the Northern VA area. I used Plug & Charge through the FordPass app effortlessly.
Typically, I've seen these in banks of 4 and 6 around our area. Each EVSE is labeled with a nameplate, which you can see above the gray-bezeled screen area. Open the FordPass app, go to the Plug & Charge section, find the station on the list, and then match the EVSE name at your parked location to the app. Activate from the app and you're good to go.
Charging stations I've used look like this:
Neither did I. Before I paid at the station, I thought to open the FP app and give it a try.
Oh, I don't think that falls under the definition of plug and charge. PnC is when you plug it in and it starts charging and billing you without any other intervention. What you used was just the BlueOval charging network thing - which nice to have as well, for sure.
Yes - that. Thanks for the correction.
Hmm, I haven't heard about this fix at all. I've read on other forums that the "Fat Boy" chargers are incompatible with MME and they were working on getting it fixed, didn't realize one had rolled out didn't see any notes about it.
Yeah, I don't think it was widely publicized. I tested this personally because the two closest DCFCs to me (which is important because I don't have at-home charging) are 50kW Efacec chargers. I flashed the OBCC update in summer and it worked immediately after. The OBCC was again updated with 21P22 with the 80% faster charging, so I figure updating to 21P22 will include this fix.
This is the Reddit thread that you're probably thinking of. Here's the image of the charger, which is like the one that @HowdyDoody posted.
