I charged last night and this morning when I went to unplug the charger, the charging light did not turn on to indicate the level of charge. This afternoon I plugged it back in to charge and the light, which usually pulses when charging, did not turn on. It seems to be charging fine, however. Also, what does the button in the center of the lights do?

Might you have inadvertently turned it off through the menu in the center screen? The center button is for stopping the charge at a DCFC station.

Check on your Sync screen. This happen to me on my first charge. I thought cool charge port light is cool. Then the second time charging the it wasn't on. Checked the sync screen the charge port light toggle was off.

The button is for stopping a DCFC charge and disengaging the lock. Page 173 from the 2022 manual.

Go to the sync screen and go to Settings. There's a Charge Icon button. You may have to slide the screen up to see more icons. You press that that and should see the charge port light toggle.

Yes, I see the Charge icon button, but there is no charge port light toggle that I can see. Sorry, I'm going to need visual aids, I guess. I've been all over the menu and not found any charge port light toggle.

The latest software update makes a major change on the UI and the charge port light setting switch is no longer available, that I can find.

I can’t find it either. I wonder why they removed it. Too many people hogging up free chargers?

I was reading through the manual and other posts, trying to find out how to turn off the blue "Charge" indicator lights. The charger/unlock icon is greyed out on the controls page. It looks like you are not able to turn off the ring of blue charge lights, at the charge port door anymore?
