Vehicle not obeying charge times!!!

[Dino]

Having similar issue myself. I have solar at home and so my ideal charging time is 10am - 6pm (10am is when the panels typically generate around 7kW on the way up to 15kW). The F150 mobile charger is a little pokey, so on a weekend i'll charge over two day sessions. Yesterday (saturday) it charged and stopped at 6pm as desired. However it kicked on overnight around 3:30am and pulled from the grid, as opposed to waiting until 10.

Plug and play is turned off. Schedules were made in the car when charger was unplugged. App reflects the same settings. Perhaps @hturnerfamily is correct - the system will override the settings if it thinks it can't get to 100% by the end of the session. That's a little frustrating.

I have a solar system also and recently went on a trip in my Optiq and left my Lightning plugged in to charge during the day (10-4). The Lightning started charging during the late afternoon (5ish) so I stopped charging from the app and after that it would not resume charging while I was gone (very frustrating). I was planning on coming home to a fully charged Lightning from my excess solar production during the daylight hours. Why do the app controls not allow you to start and stop charging without having to physically unplug and then plug it back in?

It's been a problem for a long time, I'm not sure if this is intentional or just a bug that has not been resolved.
