I have not logged into the site for a week and dont know if this has been posted. Quickly checked but did not see similar issues (may be I missed it) - but apologies upfront if already posted.
I seem to have issues just this week.
I am using Juicebox40 at home and until this week all seems to be Ok with charging. I dont think its an issue with the EVSE charger but with the car.
Here is the issue.
Via Ford Pass, I have set charging times to charge between 12 AM and 7 AM all days - charging % set to 90%; with 7 AM preconditioning time. Ford pass shows these settings and so does the car.
Last proper charging was saturday night April 10 with preconditioning done April 11 morning - all done.
Drove on sunday April 11 - charge left less than 90% - plugged in - no charging done Sunday night; no preconditioning monday morning. I wondered but did not do anything.
Drove Monday - charge left is around 40% - plugged in - no charging done on Monday and no preconditioning Tuesday morning.
Tuesday morning - I am like what the heck; using ford pass changed setting to charge when plugged in and charging begins. I let it charge for a while; charge rate is appropriate and EVSE seems to be working fine - this rules out issue with EVSE. Drove a bit Tuesday - charge left less than 90% - plugged in - no charging done on Tuesday night and no precondition on Wednesday morning.
Wednesday - again manually charge - drive a bit - plug in - no charging Wednesday night and no precondition on Thursday morning.
Thursday morning - manually charge - drive - charge left less than 90% - plug in and car charged to 90% at night and precondition done friday (today) morning.
Not sure what happened.
So I drive a bit today , come home plug in around 3 PM ish.
I see this following message on Ford pass - note it says charging to be completed Sunday - and I am like whats up - should be charging tonight not sunday -
So I click on details and see this - note that it says it will charge on Sunday JAN 01...Zees this is April.
So I will see what happens tonight and I sent these images to teh service manager at the dealer - did not hear back.
But these images make me think that the reason teh car has not initiated charging Sun through wednesday is perhaps its looking at some random day in the past and is messed up and not initiating charge...
How does Ford Pass display these incorrect dates? It connects to the car and gets messages from the car and the car is looking what to get these dates? Is it possible that the car pings some server at the mother ship and is getting this erroneous info and then does not initiate charging as its looking for Jan 1 which is in the past? Cant explain - and not sure why it charged thursday....
The EVSE logs show no activity as well during these days.
Anyone experienced this? I am waiting to hear back from the dealer but not sure what they will say. My VIN is not effected by any FSBs as far as the recall check shows.
