charge port

The initial versions of the USB standard specified connectors that were easy to use and that would have acceptable life spans; revisions of the standard added smaller connectors useful for compact portable devices. Higher-speed development of the USB standard gave rise to another family of connectors to permit additional data paths. All versions of USB specify cable properties; version 3.x cables include additional data paths. The USB standard included power supply to peripheral devices; modern versions of the standard extend the power delivery limits for battery charging and devices requiring up to 100 watts. USB has been selected as the standard charging format for many mobile phones, reducing the proliferation of proprietary chargers.

    Charge port lock stuck

    The charge socket on the car appears to have a locking pin at the 12 o'clock position that deploys to prevent the plug being removed. Mine appears to have become confused and is deployed without the plug inserted so I cannot properly insert the charge plug. Is there a way to reset this or...

    Charge port position. Photos please

    Hey I recently had the charge flap replaced on my FL MG5 LR. Looking at the charge port it is not quite centred and a little to the left. I have seen a few photos on here that suggest that might be normal. Would people mind posting photos of their charge port with the rubber covers removed...

  7. Charge port LED'S

    I'm in a new Long Range SE, I just need someone to clarify I'm not going mad. The LEDS on the left side of the charge port should be lit up the same as the right side? Faulty perhaps?

    Emergency charge port release

    How hard does one need to pull on the emergency release cable to unlock the charge port? I just cant seem to be able to release it? The car is dead, I suspect a 12V battery drain.

    Driving with charge port open

    Hello, As I've only had the car a couple of weeks and I'm used to my old Hyundai Ioniq 38kWh screaming at me if the charge port was left open, I was a bit surprised to be informed by another driver when I was passing them that my charge port (cover and mennekes/7kWh flap) were open to the...

Appreciate if anyone...

    MG4 Charge Port Dust Cap

    My MG4 has a dust cap for the two-hole ccs type port. But no dust cap for the type 2 port on the car. There's an attachment for it (or a tiny empty little hole for the attachment), but no cap. I asked the sales guy at my MG dealer and he advised that all MG4s they have received are all like...

    3D Printable attachment for charge port bung

    Hi all! I've had my ZS EV for a year and a half now and the thing that has always bothered me is the charge port bung. That flanged part is almost impossible to grip if your finger tips are in any way slippery. I climb regularly, so I like to think I've got good pinch/grip strength, but I still...

    Stopping charge port plug flapping in the wind.

    I am sure I saw a solution on here to stop the charge port cover from flapping about, it dangles on its cord and bounces against the body when the charging gun is inserted. Anyone remember where the thread was?
