Timed Charge Start unreliable

[Chris Harrold]

I've set the charge time on my MachE to start charging at midnight, and to stop charging at 3 PM, 7 days per week. So when I get home from work around 6 PM, I plug the car in, expecting it to be charged the next morning. But often it simply never starts charging. If I catch it, like after midnight and it's not charging, I unplug it and plug it back in, and charging begins. Any thoughts on solutions? Thanks!

Try setting it to a more typical 10PM-8AM schedule. You don't want to be charging during the day unless you have solar, it might get confused if you are taking trips during the charging window.
