breeves002 Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:27 PM Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:27 PM I've had this happen 3 times now... I have a cmax energi and fusion energi. One gets the L2 charger one gets the L1. Cmax rarely uses value charge but I always use it with the Fusion. Two nights in a row I've come out to a car that didn't charge in the morning. Doesn't make any sense. I have it set to value charge at home because I set the profile up on the website. It worked fine for the past month. I thought maybe I didn't plug the L1 charger in all the way so I used the L2 last night. Same problem. Anyone else had this happen? Looks like everything is setup correctly for value charging in MFM and on the screen in the car. I only value charge for two reasons...one keep the SoC low in the summer when the battery is really hot to increase life, or two to warm the bat temp up in the winter before driving to get more range...so its not necessary, my electricity prices are the same 24hrs a day...but would be nice if it worked.

jsamp Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:40 PM Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:40 PM When you plug in, are you getting the ring light to cycle 2X? Do you hear the contactors "click" about 5 seconds after plugging in? Those two things should happen whether you have value charge on or not. The only difference to value charge is the lights go back off until the actual charging starts. If you are not getting either of those actions, the connection has not been made. If you are getting those, then it is something in the value charge program that is messing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breeves002 Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:54 PM Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 at 07:54 PM (edited) Yes I get those. I do not get the notification from MFM that says I may want to plug in since I'm at a saved charge location. We have a single car garage and of course the Fusion gets the driveway not the garage and I usually leave second. So when the fusion gets moved in the morning (not by me) I get a notification from MFM saying I may want to plug it in then... Really odd behavior. Maybe I should try figuring out how to reset all that. Maybe I should just get up early and see what its doing if it does it again tomorrow. Just sucks because it ruins my fuel economy on my drive to work.... Normally I can get to work on all electric.
