Hi all
Ive just posted this on the gridserve thread too apologies for duplication but think prob best to have new thread
Please advise if u think this is a software rather than charger issue?
I had a major issue last Thursday trying to rapid charge my MG5 LR. At chargeplace Scotland CCS 50kw DCcharger, had unfortunately had to run down to 12% on battery the night before ( dont have charger at home yet)
Tried 3 different chargers in same location , other EVs successful meanwhile.
Also tried AC charging at same location with no success;
Phoned AA as was not going to be able to go anywhere
and they came , connected tablet to my MG; couldnt”read” the diagnostics but reset something
Mead able to the charge AC ( 7kw/hr) but even after up to 30% and then 70 % ( after charging to 100-% and driving down to 75%) was still unable to Rapid charge using DC 50KW charger
Was able to accept charge from a commercial charger ( swarco) but am a bit stuck as most DC chargers available in Glasgow are the similar chargeplace Scotland ones. Am thinking the low battery status at 12% may have caused an issue with the MG software
Am taking to Arnold Clark tomorrow
It’s relatively new 6000 miles 22 plate
Any ideas/ suggestions very welcome.
Otherwise have loved driving this, no issues to date
And plug was definitely plugged in, havent always needed to lock doors etc when charging previously
