Thats weird, SunRun contacted me last week and said they would get back to me ASAP with an installation date. The people who did the walkthrough said they would replace my FCSP with a new charger. My FCSP is only a year old so that surprised me a little.

No clue. At the site walk-through I asked if they'd replace my FCSP, also less than a year old, and they said no, it would be used/kept.

Hopefully your install progresses! Keep us all posted.

I have the entire system installed and it is working to the point where it can backup the house in an outage but not yet able to feed the grid. The software stack is not well done (says Captain Obvious). Yesterday was the first day for the real usage and it didn't work.

Same here. They can't seem to get the grid-backup part working.

I spoke to Matt yesterday and there's a setup for when NOT to charge at your home that needs to be done. I can't get login to the Ford Crap Station Pro even thought I did it last week. The Siemens charger is POS.

'Make sure your phone is actively connected to the same wifi network that the FCSP is connected to.

The FSCP won't accept incoming WIFI connections on the SWAXXXXX network so I can't setup the network. It should have an RJ45 network connector under the hood or the ability to use the USB port for direct access for such things. The whole stack is "engineered" by people wearing suits.

I also spoke to Matt and finally got it working last night. Just had to delete and re-pair the charge station because Ford decided to rename it for no apparent reason, and set a charge at home schedule that excluded the V2G times (to your point, though this part may or may not actually be necessary).

Nice, glad you you got the stack working. I think the "upgrade" to my FSCP may have either died part way through or changed the password for the FSCP or maybe both. I just sent some pics of the password on the cover, my plain text version that I paste into WIFI connection and the "can't connect" message from those many attemtps to Matt as a sanity check. When I used the existing stup last week, it just worked something has "gone south"
