Welllll shit, had a couple instances in the last week or two where the truck stopped charging, my grizzl-e smart blames the truck, the truck blames the charger, unplugging/replugging or starting climate control was all it took to get it to charge fully.
Until last night ... log from the grizzl-e


Ford F-150 Lightning Charge Fault L2 Grizzl-e issue ? 1731176443783-a8



repeatedly failed last night and again this morning.
I have deployed my ford mobile charger and it is chugging along at 6.4kW for 19 minutes now so yay(?)

Anybody out there recognize this fun / have pointers ?

I would recommend contacting Grizzl-e customer service. They have always been very responsive and their call center is in North America.

Apparently, grizzl-e EVSE's have a lot of issues, judging from the reviews I read - I guess you get what you pay for, and 80A EVSE components don't come cheap?

Quick update, my 40A charger cost enough to not qualify for a cheap shot 😐
I called Grizzl-e ... on a holiday and got solid help in starting the troubleshoot and eventual return/exchange process, because I had a backup I slow-rolled the whole deal but am back at full power and as happy as any warranty event could be.

Further updates !!!! The problem returned a few days after my last post, apparently I failed to share an important detail ...
I also have a neocharge splitter
After removing the splitter from the system I have had weeks and weeks of perfect operation. iirc the neocharge said it does not get along well with Fords, it was in place for months without issue but during an update it prodded me to integrate the truck into "it's thoughts" I will soon be putting back into the system and contacting neocharge regarding any fun that crops up.
