I’ll try that when I get home. Right now, I’m charging at my dealer.
im also going to keep trying at different times of day as other posters suggested. I’ve experimented with as late as 9:30p and as early as 5:30p, but I’m also guessing there are too many variables for a lucky event to occur at the same time every day (?)
UPDATE (I think my last for a while–this feels like chasing one's tail): got 14% charge at my dealer, came home and plugged in my HomeFlex- and it worked! Just added another 45% (stopping at 91%). I don't know if it's random time-of-day conditions of the grid in this NW suburban Chicago area or what. (Could it be spending 90 minutes at the dealer, then coming home, the battery was "conditioned" in some way that made the home charge work?) Who knows. Going to have to deal with it & miss until Ford publishes a fix.

Wow, I'm only getting about 40 KWH of production on a nice sunny day this time of year.

Update 4/3/21 - Like others have posted, I tried plugging in the Level 2 charger this afternoon at about 2:35 pm, and it is charging the car. Not sure if they rolled out any update or what's the reason........but thought I'd post this........also haven't heard back from the LinkedIn contact yet.......he asked me Friday whether I was able to charge at a public charger and on the 110V at home (yes to both).......but haven't heard back since......

Happy Easter, today my Mache is charging just fine. Like I said in previous posts, I was able to begin charging on 240 volts when Ford Pass updated.

Congrats! Happy Easter! Here's hoping that it was a permanent fix.

Is everyone in IL now also fixed for L2 home charging?

Well, just plugged in and it seems to be charging. Fingers crossed!!!! First time since we got it almost 2 months ago that I've been able to charge on 240 at home.

Update #2-
The "Charge when plugged in" setting still does not work for me.

Two nights in a row now keeping it plugged in on scheduled charging it has charged at around 2 AM.

Still no luck charging at 240V here in Aurora. I'm at nine weeks since delivery now and it's never worked here. I haven't seen an OTA to date either. I'll just keep waiting, I suppose.
