What is a 'charge setting conflict:?

[exact33]

I received this message after getting home from going out. I did not have the car plugged in. Anyone else get this?

All the time.

Its basically telling you that the car needs more time to charge than whatever your charging schedule is.

Sometimes it is triggered erroneously as the car may fall back to thinking its going to charge at 120V instead of your Level-2.

It can safely be ignored.

Thanks. Why would I see it if I don't have any charge times scheduled?

Good question: I often see it even when I have the schedule turned off.

Probably a bug of some sort. I think I just went into the notification settings in the Ford Pass app and turned off that notification.

Thanks! I was wondering if it was preventing me from charging at a local charge point dcfc.

It also will show if there isn't enough time to charge before your next departure time.

If you don't have a Departure Time set......then it will show that message if it can't charge fully in 24 hours. This last one is usually when the car thinks you are about to charge with L1 power.

No the message is for Level-1 and Level-2 charging; don't think it applies to DCFC.

Well, since it's a bogus message being displayed erroneously, it technically applies just as much to DCFC as L1/L2 - or turning on the windshield wipers. ?
