Have MG sorted out the MG4 yet?

Sounds like your EVSE has a problem.
Again, the Zappi is not the problem. the problem is when I set the car to anything other than 100% on the battery screen (or via the app) the car will charge as long as the charge schedule allows it to. I set it to 90% when I came in yesterday evening, this morning the car had charged to 100% and the set point in both the app and the car showed it being set to long journey mode. It is NOT the charger, or the charge schedule. I have set the car to 80% and then gone into it in the app and seen it set to long journey mode after I have opened the app.

I don't use the cars charge schedule as to be frank I do not trust it to work...I know what a pain it is having to delay travel, when through me forgetting to plug the charge cable in I have been left short of juice one morning.

For what its worth the Zappi is:
  • Running the latest firmware.
  • Has been cycled off and on at the breaker.
  • I have cleared and re-set the charge schedule.
  • Has no manual boost settings configured
  • Is set to charge only when surplus or the schedule is in operation.
  • Shows no fault code.
I (five minutes ago) selected the charger to fast charge, waited until it had ramped up to full power and then hit stop charge on the iSmart App. The Zappi immediately stopped charging and has a message on its own app stating "EV is preventing charging" so it is not ignoring stop commands. The problem lies with the car here. However, the problem is now moot as the finance company have agreed to me returning it early.

In good news the LKA is much less intrusive than it was before the update; so at least something worked as intended, I still turn it off but hey at least if I forget it won't be as bad.
