This has happened twice now. Used a CCS rapid charger at Oxford services and it failed to initiate the charge, once I had managed to get the charger out and was going to move to the other machine I saw the Message on the the dash HVB (High Voltage Battery) cut off. Can’t drive the car. Googled and tried everything to no avail. Ended up green flag relayed the car home as they said they can’t do anything with EV’s. Then found by chance we had MG assist which is AA. Gave them a call and they came out, connected diagnostics machine but could find anything. Reset anyway and car came back to life. Home charging works fine. MG garage said we had not turned off the car before plugging it in. We didn’t think we had.
Today, 2 weeks later we went to Bristol and stopped at Membury Services and you guessed it same again.
called MG assist and got AA out again, told the guy what to do and he reset it and all good.
Asked if he minded if we tried again while he was there and yep it bricked it again, another reset and we headed home.
As the car charges fine on home AC charger can only guess it’s the DC side that’s causing a problem. Called the local MG service and they have agreed to look at it. But we obviously can’t use any CCS chargers until the fault is fixed.
Anyone else had this issue?
