I just had some charging problems at local Houston EVGO stations and since my Tesla still works there Energica thinks it may be the factory firmware and says I should go ahead and get updated with the latest for my 2018 Eva. I assumed it was only a software update but it turns out there's a part swap required too and that had to be ordered before we could schedule the update - fortunately it was in stock at the US HQ and has been shipped to the dealer, hoping I'll have this done this week.

Are you using a chademo adapter for your Tesla or does that one have the new Tesla cable? Either way, perhaps the CCS combo cable is bad.

The station has a side by side Chademop and CCS. The latter for my bike and the former for the Tesla with an adapter cable. The point to me was that the charger box works...in Chademo...so why not the CCS? You're right its probably the cable or the firmware, or a software glitch for the CCS, its at least not my account!

Update - got the new .36 update and for some reason they sent a new ECM along to swap out. The update turned into an issue because when they swapped out the module it then required every software install from factory to present be installed in order. There also was a problem the tech couldn't figure out but the US Service Mgr caught, the pins in the data harness apparently can come loose and cause the update to fail. The dealer pushed the pins all back in proper and it worked all the way through. I rode it about 60 miles today and even went to the CCS charger that never works and wow does it work now, like a Tesla Supercharger! My thanks go out to AF1 Racing the dealer who stuck with this project while locked down for the Covid!
