Need a wee bit of help/advice here, yesterday went to a fast charger to top up my 25 miles on the clock - plugged in and it took the charger 3 attempts to start up ?
Thought maybe a dodgy unit but after a wee while the charge started low then built up to about 35 KW so sat in the car and waited for about 20 mins then went out to check what rate I was getting to my surprise it had gone down to about 2kw and my % was about 30 I was then sure it was a faulty charger but...went home and plugged in the Granny the mileage was about 30 ? so the car wasn't taking the charge :-(
Before I contacted the garage I thought I'll try again with the Granny and now after 3hrs its up to about 80 miles ! (I know the Granny is slow ) but at least the car is now taking the charge, have I pressed the wrong button somewhere or does this happen sometimes ??
Any advice or help would be appreciated
