Zoe charging fun still continues, and I'm none the wiser.

Swapped cars/chargers with a friend. He charged his Audi here, I charged the Zoe at his. Logic being if the Zoe charges fine at his, and his doesn't here, it is the charger. If his is fine, and the Zoe isn't, it is the car.

Both cars charged to 100% without issue. Both chargers are 7kW/32A, so apart from the manufacturer (which shouldn't be a factor) it is an apples for apples test.

Now what?

This with a Zappi charger?

Asked on the owners forums if anyone else has issues with Zappi and Zoe? (Sounds like a Saturday morning puppet duo). Any software or firmware upgrades needed?

Zappi, yes.

Nothing has changed in terms of software with either (both permanently offline), and I've not seen anything mentioned.

They're both running the latest firmware that was available before the end of 3G (Zoe), and the Zappi Hub deciding it didn't want to talk to anything anymore.

It was fine until the charging port on the car broke, then fine again for a good while. We've had the car and charger for over five years, and only had issues in the last of them.

My initial thought was that it overheated, as the charger sits on the SE wall of the house. With the change in temperature, that shouldn't be the case. If it happens again I might just bite the bullet and buy the replacement plug/lead and see if that fixes it.

Edit: looked again and have found others with the same issue. Changing the cable fixed it (at least temporarily, for one). I guess that's what we're doing then.
