Help, "charging ended" before it began

[Mtljckt]

Just got my CT 4S and wanted to plug it in. All went 100% except it doesn't seem to charge (home). I selected both 6A or 10A, it returns the same error. Doesn't even look like an error since the screen is green, but the battery is not full (still has about 40% or so). Is this limit the problem, should it be below 25% to begin charging?

Problem solved by pressing the battery icon in the dashboard and then immediate charging. This initiated the charging. I'm charging at 10A.

You'll want at least 32A to get the most out of your PMCC - its an expensive ornament otherwise. Ensure you seek a good electrician to install a proper fused supply to your PMCC.

Check you don't have any profile or timers set - remove them all and start over.

Only use Direct Charge if you want to charge immediately (normally not needed).

There is no minimum for your battery unless you have a profile set (minimum value is 25% - which means that when you connect your PMCC to the car and the battery is at 10% it will charge immediately until it reaches 25% whereupon it will pause waiting on the next instruction / timer).

Suggest daily timer / profile shared below which will provide a daily charge up to 85% and charge only between 02:00 and 07:00.

Note that on 10A your charge rate will be very slow and so you may not reach the target 85% (hence the reason to a proper electrical supply installed).

Thanks for the tips, will call the electrician.
How does the charger know the interval of my fuse is 6 to 10A? I have an i3S which is plugged in too and is charging as usual. Its max power is much smaller hence it didn't reach the fuse's limit? Which is 16 or 25A btw.
