Not charging fully overnight

[nbenn]

Has anyone run into this issue? Charging overnight and started from approx 15%. It stopped at 88% even when charge window was for another 2 hours.

This is the worst I've seen of this issue, I've had large charges previously where they've stopped at 97/98% but I not really questioned it much until this time as the % was so much lower. This seems to occur when I charge from low soc starting point.

I've been able to restart by setting zappi to fast and telling car to charge through app but that shouldn't be necessary.

Any ideas?

You might have the early stages of this (not related to Zappi) which more and more of us are encountering:

Issue with AC charging/New CCU fitted (Phase One SE LR)

Edit: Originally, I thought I had an issue with my Zappi not being able to charge the car, but after testing other AC charging points (cutting out after fifteen minutes or less) and contacting the dealer, I eventually found out it was an issue with the car, namely the charge control unit, which...

That's assuming @nbenn has a Trophy LR or an SE LR. (Profile says Not an MG).

I've an SE SR. So that issue didn't apply to those?

Not so far ... at least I'm not aware of any LFP battery owner (SE SR) having this issue thus far. It's been LR (NMC) battery owners that have had this, and it might be restricted to Phase 1 cars with the 3-phase onboard charger?

charge window?

The allotment time on my zappi that car is allowed to charge overnight at. Basically during cheap night time electricity rates.

Didn't realise it said that! Updated now, thanks!

Is there a charge schedule set on the car at all?

Is there a charge schedule set on the car at

In fact there was! It was set to come off at 6 so maybe this was the cause. I've removed it now. Hopefully it won't affect the Zappi schedule trying to start up a charge. I can always just extend the MG schedule if I have to. Thanks for that.
