A couple of months ago I noticed I could no longer charge at one of my local Chademo stations. It had been working fine and then one day I just got "could not connect to EV". There are two other Chademos I use and they still work fine. Then this morning I couldn't charge at the new Electrify America Chademo station (brand new, I hadn't been there before). Anyone have insight into this? I have a 2015 Leaf.
A couple of questions for you:
Have you checked PlugShare to see if other people have been having connection problems? If you don't have the PlugShare app on your phone, I strongly recommend you get it for checking the status of chargers. And make sure to enter your failed charging attempt, since that may be helpful for other people. If you don't want to use an app, there is also http://www.plugshare.com
Also, some chargers will sometimes fault like that if you have anything plugged in to the USB port. Recently I could not get a Webasto (formerly Aerovironment) charger to work after several tries, and finally called their tech support number. The tech who answered actually knew a lot about EVs and the charger, and told me to remove my USB thumb drive that I had plugged in with my music library. The charger worked on my next try after that.
