I sometimes use the discharge setting (power to load) when I go up to our village windmill I can connect the car and run the internal lights.
Today I went to the windmill to do a pre season stock check on our gift shop items.
Upon rerturning home I plugged the car into my charger it tried to start but stopped immediatly.
I tried it again resetting the car by driving it up and down the drive and then going through the plug in routine. I noticed the light go green as if to star a charge but then immediatly back to blue and the connector unlatches.
OK it may be a fault with the charger? OK so I tried the granny lead same result.
OK we have a problem. So I drive it into my workplace where there are some 7KW chargers.
First attempt the charger reported a communication error.
Second attemp it started charging and drew 7KW as expected.
Went home and plugged into the podpoint charger all was well??
So does anybody on here have an explanation? is this simply poor MG software not switching between charge and discharge correctly?
I bet if I report this to the dealer they will not have a clue.
