Recently, my charging adapter to connect my Tesla Wall Charger (Lectron) stopped connecting with the vehicle thus not allowing a charge to occur. I called the Service Center and we went through quite a few steps to remedy the situation resulting in the replacement of the adapter with a different brand. The new adapter works and allows a charge. While looking into this issue I also let them know that when I set the charge limit on my vehicle it always stops 2% prior to the set limit (ie set for 85% but only charges to 83%). This holds true for all chargers including the Rivian trickle charger, my Tesla Wall charger Level 2, and Electrify America Level 3 chargers. The R1T I own accepts charges but falls 2% short as noted. I now have a service appointment set for December (its currently October). I was wondering if anyone else sees this issue, what was done, and any suggestions. Thanks!

I have seen other posts about issues with the Lectron. I have been using the Shockflo adapter lately. The thing i like about it is that it has a lock slider on it to keep someone from just pulling out the NACS (accidentally) while its inserted. The TeslaTap Mini also works well.

Here is a link with s 10% off code for the shockflo unit:

ShockFlo A1 Tesla to J1772 EV Adapter: https://bit.ly/46fU6QL

Use code "EL10" to get 10% off

I have the Rivian wall charger. Since the last update, it often stops the charge about 2% below the targeted SoC percentage... doesn't happen all the time but frequently.
