Charges for 1:15 then stops and gives me 140 miles

Right, it was:

> Profile is set to 100%.

But, sorry to say, as the content doesn't really add up. Pictures would be helpful. I doubt the charger is at fault, as it would need to actively block the charging. If the car doesn't charge, it usually means it doesn't think it has a demand which is mostly due to settings.

.Please confirm which EVSE / charger you are using as I could be rambling unnecessarily?

PMCC.....Appreciate you and all that are trying to help.
Car is 2 yrs old...as is the garage system. This issue started about a month ago.
Sorry no pics but I have quoted verbatin what the screens say.

Darn, I'm going to have leave this issue and re-address after the weekend.
Heading out now for a track weekend....different Pcar .

All have a safe Memorial Day Weekend !

@GreggT As @W1NGE mentioned, disable PLC to your home network in the settings (Web UI) and this error will not appear any longer. Nothing to worry about.

But I use PLC. My charger is the cheap one without a screen, so web UI via powerline networking is the only way to get into it.

I do this to collect data about my charging.

Never had a charge problem on it.

Yes that’s right - so we have been guessing until now the EVSE in use.

At one point PLC had to be disabled to your home network due to the 12v issue last year (now addressed). PLC not required / optional with PMCC but if enabled and you are using WiFi then you get the PLC error originally quoted if not paired correctly.

Sounds like it can wait but also a classic case of ‘RTFM’ and all will be well ;-)

to determine that it isn't a profile or timer maybe go into the Porsche app and enable "direct charging' - if it charges fully then, you have narrowed it down to a profile or setting at least.

Direct charge yielded.....59% and 126 mile range, but it was only at about 90 miles when I plugged it in.
It ran for 1:06 before shutting down.
I'm going to E-America fast charger next to see results.

Sounds like you have an actual issue.

I think you have a major problem with your chargers on the car. Seek advice from the dealership.

Circling back.....on an E-America DC Fast Charger it's charging to 100% (which on this car it shows a 240 mile range) in about 40 minutes from a 20% SOC.
So.....it's possibly something on my AC home 50amp on the MCC?
Dealership just has a 50kw DC cabinate, so not sure what charging there would tell me.

If your home AC charger is erroring out overnight and not completing the charge, you might be interested in this thread:

Apparently the cable starts to get problematic after roughly a year of use.

 

[GreggT]

Derick.....thanks for sharing! Good info.

It's the charger. It overheats. Feel the cord after about 30 minutes, you'll feel it. This doesn't happen in cold environments, only when it's hot.

 

[GreggT]

Yep.....today dealership diagnosed as cable....'too high a resistance'.....replace under warranty but they are B.O.d with no ETA so, I'm off to E.America.
