We have 18 ChargePoint charging stations at work. I've noticed that my car reliably connects to 6 of them, completely refuses to charge on 10 of them, and once a blue moon seems to accept the rest. Note that the chargers seem to work just fine, I've seen Teslas back in and charge from the very same stations that refuse to connect to my car. On stations that don't work for my car, the station says something like "waiting for car", the light on the charging port on the car doesn't change, and the screen also doesn't switch to the battery view. This has always been this way, and I have plenty of data points (>1 year, and I plug in almost every day).

It's not a big problem because I know which ones work, and they tend to be available. But I've just finally gotten too curious to see if there's a solution, and also what the hell can cause this?

Does anybody else see this type of behavior?
