Also wondering if this is ok to drive with. Not sure if anything else is effected by this.

So I found the fuse, under the box. Had to disconnect the big plugs to get it out. Took out the fuse and it looked good. Put it all back together and the fan turned on just fine. Any idea why this happened? Blower fan going out? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Thank you for the reply. Makes sense. Very much appreciated!!

Today, the fan for ac or heat wasn't blowing. I could feel the cold air slowing coming out, but turning up the fan did nothing. Still under warranty, but it's a hassle to get it to the dealer. I'm wondering if maybe it's a fuse i can check or if you guys think I should just take it in. Or is it an easy fix? My deductible is only $100, but it's my time and the hassle of leaving it there.

Figured I'd update. Got the new charger and have been running it over night at 6 amps without any heating problems at all. It actually charged to the full 21 miles, which was more that the c max charger when it was working. Happy camper here.

I couldn't find a charger to borrow, but i did charge the car at a charge point station and it charged all the way up just fine. So, i bought a charger with adjustable current draw. It goes as low as 6a. Hopefully that will keep things cool and working. I know I bought the $21 outlet, but i did put the dirty plug in it and it has heated up twice. Do you think I should replace it before plugging in my new charger?

It took about 3 hours, but the plug got hot and the lights turned on. The prongs were hot enough to burn your fingers. Next step is to try a different charger.

I cleaned the plug up really well and am testing it. It's been on without red lights for a little over an hour, but the plug is pretty warm.

The prongs are parallel, but definitely not clean. This looks to have damage from overheating. Would cleaning these fix my issue? Worth checking? My neighbor has a plug in, but it's hardwired. I'll try and find one, test it at my house, and then talk to the dealer. Thank you!

Swapped the outlets, tested it. Two yellow lights on the tester. The flashing red outlet on the charger came on at about an hour and the charging stopped. The plug from the charger was warm too. Thoughts? Any truth in the "designated ground" for the outlet helping?

Great! Thank you! I'll put it in this evening and hopefully this will fix the charging problem. I really appreciate the help!

Ok, so I went and bought this. $21 at Lowe's. 20A 125v GFCI. Do the wires still go in on the screw on the outside, even though it would be touching that little plastic piece holding the screw straight? or in the hole on this one since the wire going on these holes actually get clamped down by the screw?

Thank you!! I pushed test and the lights went out. I looked closer to the outlet and it says "Replace GFCI if red light flashes". So, I guess not seeing the light means it's ok. Which brings me back to why is my charger heating up and showing the flashing red plug, the steady red triangle, and not charging my car? The screws are being used on it. It is a gfci outlet. The outlet seems good. Do you think I need to get a more expensive outlet? Or buy a new charger? 3rd party? What would my next trouble shooting steps be from here?

It is pushed in. The reader says all is correct and the light still isn't on. Thoughts?

I was reading other topics and they said that maybe it was a cheap outlet. I bought one of these outdoor kits from Lowe's. Could a cheap outlet be the issue? I also notices that the little light on the outlet isn't green. It's green on every other outlet like this in my house. Could that be a tell of the problem? Again, thank you for your help and advice!
