L2 38~48 amp charging flux

Is that from ForScan? I've been looking for PIDS to watch but cherry picking is really hard when theres 3 of the same pid but 2 are from ICE vehicles.

That was with Car Scanner app, Mach E profile on one of the pre-made dashboards.

Can you find the PID ID? (Some of that stuff doesn't make much sense for what it's displaying)

It just says ChgORT. No PID ID. Everything seems to line up as it should. It’s not DC charging so that’s just default no data values. (65535). Everything else is correct.

Type in "coupler' when searching for parameters, two AC and three DC come up.

NOTE: One of the AC charge coupler temps is programmed wrong in Car Scanner and shows a temp of 177ºF after sitting unplugged overnight in a 70ºF garage. Ignore this parameter, it's clearly wrong.

Whilst attempting to find the PIDS needed to hunt this down I ended up with something very odd. When I keyed on for the OBD2 connector to work I got a steady 40amp req charge, AND the handle temp climbed. After hours of being plugged in charging. I think my issue might be in the Tesla Wallconector, but while it was KOEO the charge is steady.

BATCHAR_TEMP_A, B, C = 176, 160, 162 F and those never moved more than 1 degree in any direction.

Following up on this.

I finally decided to try to contact Tesla about my wallConnector. I get temps in the 140+ reported from the connector at the handle and at the PCB. Reality is
I metered via a laser thermometer:
Garage : 89
Handle: 117
Wire at the handle: 113
Faceplate of the charger (because it's glass it should transmit the heat easily): 104

Reported thermo's from the unit:
Garage: 92
Handle: 140
PCB: 140
MCU: 130

Tech asked for pics of the handle. When I unplugged it I stuck my finger in between the j1772's pins. It couldn't have been more than 110 degrees.
Long story short, they're shipping me another.
